Practical Distributed Control Systems (DCS) for Engineers and TechniciansLiving Online
This workshop will cover the practical applications of the modern Distributed Control System (DCS). Whilst all control systems are distributed to a certain extent today and there is a definite merging of the concepts of a DCS, Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and SCADA and despite the rapid growth in the use of PLC’s and SCADA systems, some of the advantages of a DCS can still be said to be Integrity and Engineering time.
Abnormal Situation Management and Intelligent Alarm Management is a very important DCS issue that provides significant advantages over PLC and SCADA systems.
Few DCSs do justice to the process in terms of controlling for superior performance – most of them merely do the basics and leave the rest to the operators. Operators tend to operate within their comfort zone; they don’t drive the process “like Vettel drives his Renault”. If more than one adverse condition developed at the same time and the system is too basic to act protectively, the operator would probably not be able to react adequately and risk a major deviation.
Not only is the process control functionality normally underdeveloped but on-line process and control system performance evaluation is rarely seen and alarm management is often badly done. Operators consequently have little feedback on their own performance and exceptional adverse conditions are often not handled as well as they should be. This workshop gives suggestions on dealing with these issues.
The losses in process performance due to the inadequately developed control functionality and the operator’s utilisation of the system are invisible in the conventional plant and process performance evaluation and reporting system; that is why it is so hard to make the case for eliminating these losses. Accounting for the invisible losses due to inferior control is not a simple matter, technically and managerially; so it is rarely attempted. A few suggestions are given in dealing with this.
Why are DCS generally so underutilised? Often because the vendor minimises the applications software development costs to be sure of winning the job, or because he does not know enough about the process or if it is a green-field situation, enough could not be known at commissioning time but no allowance was made to add the missing functionality during the ramp-up phase. Often the client does not have the technical skills in-house to realise the desired functionality is missing or to adequately specify the desired functionality.
This workshop examines all these issues and gives suggestions in dealing with them and whilst not being by any means exhaustive provides an excellent starting point for you in working with a DCS.

Our concept is for a plant to be a place where people can be watchful and attentive, while the business responds quickly and efficiently to change. Non-stop production is assured as the plant’s personnel confidently expand their capabilities.
The traditional plywood manufacturing process usually requires a large amount of manpower and produces a significant amount of waste material. Then there is the question of safety hazards associated with manually operated machines. Therefore, manufacturers are always looking for ideas that reduce dependency on manpower, improve efficiency and boost overall productivity.
Our client was no different. They approached Messung for a cost-effective solution to control their plywood processing plant.

Yokogawa offers an intuitive and easy-to-understand HMI environment for plant operation and monitoring, which is the result of
vast experience with CENTUM systems in operation. Flexibility in displaying operation windows and monitors helps in adapting to
various aspects of operation needs. CENTUM VP provides easy-to understand graphics based on the ergonomics and knowledge
engineering. For instance, data displays are provided with high visibility that enables intuitive awareness of the situation. The use
of colors considers the best contrast and environments of the central control room and the configuration of the displays integrates
the knowhow of experienced operators. With all these functions, CENTUM VP enables operators to make quick and accurate
decisions during operations and contributes to improve operation efficiency.
Consolidated Alarm Management Software (CAMS) helps customers avoid safety and environmental incidents that can
be caused by alarm flooding. It also enables customers to improve operational efficiency under normal conditions,
freeing operators from having to perform tedious repetitive tasks and allowing them to focus on true process concerns.
CAMS supports Six Sigma DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) for alarm management based on the
latest EEMUA #191 alarm management guideline. It provides additional useful tools such as graphical historical data
analysis and automatic alarm reduction. Sequence of event management functions are also included.
With PRM (Plant Resource Manager) and intelligent field devices, operators and maintenance personnel can monitor
the condition of plant assets remotely. Plant Resource Manager's diagnostic functions detect early signs of
performance deterioration such as valve sticking and impulse line blocking. By helping curtail excessive preventive
maintenance and enabling higher level predictive and proactive maintenance, Plant Resource Manager opens the way
to asset predictability.
Optimized allocations of the function keys and buttons enable operators to call up or
switch graphics and control loops by pressing a single key. Two types, a single-loop
and an eight-loop simultaneous operation keyboards, are provided giving users the
ability to react quickly to process conditions.

AOG Solution
The AOG (Advanced Operator Graphics) solution
emphasizes ergonomic design and seeks,
through improved color selection, layout, and
visual function, to improve operators situational
awareness. A team of Yokogawa engineers
visited many plants to conduct a detailed
analysis, review the tasks carried out by
operators, and learn about the plant's operations.
In accordance with general principles on industrial
design and human engineering, Yokogawa then
redesigned the GUIs for the HMI displays to
reduce operator errors, make their work easier to
perform, and reduce physical stress.

All plant process data and device data are
handled by CENTUM VP.
CENTUM VP's versatile architecture covers not only continuous and batch process control but also
manufacturing operations management.
A wider variety of software suites for automation solutions is available.
5. Control
Control network
I/O network I/O network
Yokogawa’s CENTUM series achieves high availability thanks to a dual-redundant
design, online maintenance capability, and other advanced features. The FCS
processor module, power supply, I/O modules, and I/O networks are all dual
redundant. Active and stand-by processor modules work in synchronization: even if a
failure occurs, control switches over seamlessly to the stand-by module and the FCS
continues running. Failed modules can be replaced online, ensuring that not even a
hardware failure will interfere with plant operation.
Ensuring the Highest Availability and Reliability
The CENTUM series employs a pair & spare architecture
that improves the stability of process control. Each
processor module has redundant CPUs that execute the
same computations simultaneously. Their outputs are
constantly compared and a bump-less switchover to the
stand-by processor module is initiated if any anomalies
caused by electronic noise or other phenomena are
detected. This minimizes the likelihood that CPU hardware
faults will have any impact on process control.
The HIS runs on Microsoft Windows operating systems
platforms and offers customers the convenience of using
commercial-off-the-shelf hardware. Although the reliability of a
PC is relatively low, it does not affect the total reliability of the
process operator function. As the HIS is not server-client
dependent, multiple HISs provide independent backup such
that there is no single point of failure.
Through an online maintenance function, FCS applications can be modified without shutting down the FCSs. It means, you can change
logics and parameters without interrupting the process control. This is useful for expansion or modification of the plant in operation.
Yokogawa has a long history of delivering stable and high quality
CENTUM systems. The CENTUM VP controller features outstanding
processing performance and a large application storage capacity, yet
inherits the same quality and stability that are the hallmark of the
CENTUM series. It has been optimized to take full advantage of
advances in field digital technology that will help plants operate with
increased efficiency and stability.
The state-of-the-art Field Control Station (FCS)
Designed for Stable Control
Online Maintenance
The CENTUM VP provides functional blocks for monitoring, control, manipulations, calculations, logic functions, and sequences. Not
only continuous control but also advanced control, complicated sequence control, and batch control are all executed in a redundant,
secure, and reliable controller environment. Plant systems can be flexibly designed, ranging from small-to-large-scale, through the
combination of these control blocks.
Yokogawa's Vnet/IP provides open, reliable, and real-time
broadband communications, which enables the use of commercial
off-the-shelf technology that help reduce costs. The open

modules available that span a broad range of processes and
functions for production, safety and asset excellence.
After the DCS is sent to a site, design changes often happen due to physical restrictions of implementation or inadvertent
miscalculations and these changes can significantly affect the project schedule. And shortening the term of a project is an everpresent
challenge. Flexible I/O binding, Yokogawa’s improved late I/O binding solution, helps overcome these customer challenges.
The Automation Design Suite, Yokogawa's new engineering environment, retains the entire engineering history of your plant from
design phase, through commissioning and live operation; which ensures up-to-date plant knowledge with every expansion, or
hardware and software change throughout your lifecycle.
The flexible I/O binding facilitates simple and hassle-free I/O binding. This is made possible by software marshaling
and the N-IO’s universal channels. The type of I/O and the interconnection between the I/O module and the controller
can be modified remotely which significantly absorbs the impact of last-minute I/O changes. Furthermore, the flexible
I/O binding achieves early delivery of I/O cabinets to the site, and problems can be found and fixed on-site at a very
early stage.

Flexible I/O Binding – ensuring project execution excellence
Reducing the Risks to Scheduled Project Delivery
The flexible I/O binding shortens duration of a project. After I/O design is fixed, application engineering and hardware
engineering can progress independently and parallel. This is made possible by System Independent Loop
Commissioning. System Independent Loop Commissioning project capability utilizes Yokogawa's FieldMate
Validator, an innovative tool allowing the field testing and validation of N-IO without requiring a deployed system.
