Introduction

Trusted

Peer to Peer Communications is provided by the Trusted

Communications Interface

module (T8150/T8151/T8151B) for the interchange of safety and non-safety information between

Trusted

Controllers. Up to four Trusted

Communications Interface modules may be fitted in each

Trusted

The peer network will automatically handle routing and selection of redundant data so avoiding the

need to handle data selection and voting in the application. The Peer network will provide peer

networking between up to 40 Trusted

controllers.

Features

• Supports up to forty Trusted

Controllers per Peer to Peer

Network

TrustedTM Communication Software Package T8017 1. Peer Network TM The Peer Network provides communication of safety data between up to forty Trusted systems per peer network. The data can be transferred between individual systems or from one system to several systems at the same time using multicasting. TM A peer network consists of one or more Ethernet networks connecting together a set of Trusted systems to enable safety data to be passed between them.
PAGE 9
TrustedTM Communication Software Package T8017 1.1. Theory of Operation Peer communications interaction is Master/Slave which provides deterministic behaviour. Each peer TM communications subnet requires one Trusted system to act as the master for the subnet and up to TM thirty-nine Trusted systems participating as slaves. If redundant masters are required so that a subnet remains operational if the master peer goes offline, then another peer may be permanently set as master.
PAGE 10
TrustedTM Communication Software Package T8017 1.1.2. Input Data When the system receives peer input data, it is validated before it is passed on to the application program for use. The system monitors the refreshing of input data. If fresh input data is received within the time-out period, the input refresh status bit on the input board is set to true.
PAGE 11
TrustedTM Communication Software Package T8017 2. Programming Information TM The Trusted communications interface modules are selected and assigned to peer communications using the I/O Configuration Editor at the Engineering Workstation (EWS) as described in PD-8082. It should be noted that the (OEM) parameters set up on all board / rack definitions cannot be changed online. General information relating to configuring the modules is detailed below. 2.1.

Figure 3 Peer Subnet Control board CONTROL rack The user must enter data as detailed below: CHASSIS – Logical chassis where the communication interface is installed. Range 1 - 29. SLOT – this is the slot where the communications interface is installed. Range 1 – 12. NETWORK_ID - Peer network number supported by this controller. Range 1 – 8.

TrustedTM Communication Software Package T8017 Figure 4 shows a display of one of the four peer IP and status racks on the Peer Subnet Control board. Figure 4 Peer Subnet Control board PEERS rack The status rack contains ten IP addresses and ten status bits which indicate the status of the peers on the network. PEER_IP_01 to 10 – IP address of peers with PEER_IDs of 1 to 10 in the subnet.

TrustedTM Communication Software Package T8017 2.2. Peer to Peer Data Boards There are four different peer input boards (two analogue and two digital) that can be selected to ensure that the optimum communication packet size can be used for the application. Each input board has a corresponding output board that must be of the same type and channel quantity. There are two versions of the analogue data boards, a 16 channel version and a 128 channel version. Both are configured the same.
PAGE 15
TrustedTM Communication Software Package T8017 2.2.1. Analogue Input Boards Figure 5 shows the data rack display associated with an IEC1131 Toolset 16 channel analogue input TM board selected for incoming data to a Trusted controller. Figure 5 Peer to Peer Input Board Display The user must enter data as detailed below. NETWORK_ID – The network that is carrying the data. Data will be received via all peer controllers that share this network identity. Range 1 – 8.
PAGE 16
TrustedTM Communication Software Package T8017 Analogue variable inputs 1 to 16 – Analogue values received from the corresponding channel of the selected output board in the sending system. The values are 32 bit and will assume either a 32 bit signed integer format or 32 bit real format depending on the variable to which it is connected. Both the specific input channel and its corresponding output channel must be connected to the same variable type.

Figure 6 Input Board Status Display Variable 1: TRUE = Input data is valid, i.e. refreshed within REFRESH_TMO Variable 2-9: TRUE = Data has been refreshed within REFRESH_TMO by subnet 1-8, respectively. This status is intended for detection of latent faults within a redundant network. The data is delivered over all available programmed subnets simultaneously.
