IS420UCSCS1B GE UCSC CONTROLLER, QUAD CORE

Description:

IS420UCSCH1B is a Quad Core Controller manufactured and designed by General Electric. It is a part of the Mark VIe Series used in GE Distributed Control Systems. It is a version of the quad-core controller that is used with the QNX Neutrino operating system. TMR, Simplex, and Dual redundancy are supported by the component. The QNX operating system is used in high-speed, highly reliable industrial applications. Another type of technology used on this controller is Embedded Field Agent (EMA) technology, which allows Predix cloud-based applications and possibly web applications to be applied over a stable connection, allowing real-time data to be delivered to the connecting controllers.

The controller comes with 4 GB of DDR3-1333 SDRAM, which is a type of memory used in computers and other digital devices for high-speed data storage. The controller has 5 Ethernet ports, which allow it to connect to other devices and networks for data transfer and communication. The controller uses ControlST as its Human-Machine Interface (HMI), which is a software application used to interact with and control the device.
The Mark VIe quad-core controller runs high-speed, high-reliability industrial applications using real-time hypervisor technology and QNX Neutrino, a real-time, multi-tasking operating system (OS). PredixTM cloud-based apps and/or locally hosted web applications are applied through a secure connection and delivered real-time data using embedded field agent (EFA) technology.
A software package tailored to the UCSCH1x controller's use is preloaded. It leverages IONet interfaces as a turbine or balance of plant (BoP) controller and runs Mark VIe firmware and applications. Only supporting Mark controls I/O packs and controllers, IONet is a private special-purpose Ethernet. To synchronize the clocks of the I/O modules and controllers to within 100 microseconds, IEEE 1588 protocol is employed through the IONet interfaces.
With the IONet connections, external data is transmitted to and from the controller's control system database. To the I/O modules, this also refers to process inputs and outputs. The UCSC controller lacks any application I/O, in contrast to conventional controllers that host application I/O on a backplane.

The IS420UCECH1 module is certified for hazardous location usage. This module is an IS420UCSCH1 controller coupled
with a seven I/O port expansion board. The UCSCH1 controller contained within the UCECH1 module has the same features
and benefits as the stand-alone UCSCH1 controller. For further details on the UCECH1 module, refer to the Mark VIe and
Mark VIeS Control Systems Volume II: General-purpose Applications System Guide (GEH-6721_Vol_II), the section
UCECH1x I/O Port Expansion Module.
