Introduction to the DeltaV™ VerticalPlus I/O Rack

Keep your I/O subsystems running efficiently with DeltaV™ VerticalPlus I/O Racks.

The VerticalPlus platform allows you to integrate DeltaV SIS logic solvers www.ge-drive.com vertically, giving you the flexibility you need for cabinet design.

Power supplies/controllers and I/O carriers are modular.

You buy only what you need, but rest assured that as your system grows, you can add plug-and-play carriers-it’s easy!

The Advantage

Designed specifically for SIS. The redesigned carrier supports simplex and redundant SLS modules.

These modules communicate via a redundant safety bus, which is separate from the BPCS communications.

The VerticalPlus carrier also communicates with other SIS nodes on the vertical and horizontal carriers via redundant SISNet repeaters.

The modular design allows for flexible installation. A single T-shaped DIN rail is all that is needed to mount the power/controller carrier in place.

Fieldbus power is now independent for each individual card.

The modular design approach of the DeltaV system allows you to add I/O carriers as needed.

Allows you to expand online. Additional carriers can be added online as needed.

Increases the density of the cabinet-mounted system. Six I/O carriers can be mounted on one side of a standard 1200mm x 600mm x 2200mm cabinet.

Product Description

The VerticalPlus I/O Interface Carrier plugs into the 4-Wide Power/Controller Carrier, which provides power to the system and communication between the I/O interface and the controller.

The controller processes I/O interface information through the control module.

The VerticalPlus I/O Interface Carrier provides a separate bus field power connection for each I/O card.

The carrier is designed to support the same terminals as the horizontal carrier.

The carriers are mounted on T-shaped DIN rails. Each I/O interface carrier is supplied with connectors for direct mating together.

A single I/O subsystem supports a total of eight 8-width I/O interface carriers for a maximum of 64 local I/O interface cards.

Cable extenders are used to connect carriers that cannot be installed next to each other, allowing the carriers to be arranged in standard equipment cabinets.

The extender has two 22-pin D-type connectors and supports a dual cable fault-tolerant configuration.

Ports A and B are connected in parallel so that either port can be used.

The new Dual Carrier Extender also supports the redundant secure bus coaxial connectors used by DeltaV SIS.

The total length of the I/O bus is 6.5 metres (21.3 feet).

The VerticalPlus carrier can also be used for Zone 2 remote I/O devices to provide installation flexibility.

Introduction

The new DeltaV™ network “smart” switches are the next generation in the use of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components in control systems.

These switches combine the low cost of off-the-shelf components with DeltaV-specified software and features that

making it more integrated and plug-and-play in the DeltaV Area Control Network (ACN) and other DeltaV networks outside the ACN.

The DeltaV Smart Switch requires no configuration to operate in a DeltaV network.

Access to advanced features requires minimal configuration and is easily accomplished using the DeltaV Network Device Command Centre.

This ensures that all Smart Switches on the network are configured consistently and securely, and that the performance of the DeltaV system is not compromised by misconfiguring any switch function.

This dedicated switch allows the DeltaV system to provide an advanced security feature of automatic port lockout, which can be easily implemented by the control system user.

Control system users can easily implement this feature: an increasingly important product feature in today’s harsh environments.

The DeltaV Smart Switch is also pre-configured to utilise features in the latest software releases, such as ARP sniffing and enhanced security features.

(The DeltaV Smart Switch is also preconfigured to detect certain man-in-the-middle attacks using features in the latest version of the software, such as ARP sniffing and enhanced port locking algorithms: ARP spooffng detection and enhanced port locking algorithms.

Benefits

Enhanced security. The new generation of DeltaV Smart Switches is based on a more powerful hardware and software platform with an increased focus on security.

The new hardware features powerful CPUs for control plane and management operations.

The software has many new features such as role-based access, secure user and password management, brute force attack protection, audit trails and user-readable event logs.

There is also a new HTML5 web interface that can be accessed through the Network Device Command Centre, making it easy to upgrade the switch software.

The next-generation switch also offers more flexible configuration options.

Improved performance. The switching ASICs used in these new products offer new capabilities

such as increased network buffers, the ability to process/forward/filter packets based on more L2 address information such as IP addresses, UDP or TCP ports, and a non-blocking architecture.

and non-blocking architecture, in addition to more powerful CPUs for control plane and management operations.

Fully managed by DeltaV. The DeltaV Switch Commissioning application automatically discovers the switch in the Network Device Command Centre (formerly the Smart Switch Command Centre) when the switch is started.

Network addresses are automatically assigned by DeltaV DCS or by the user when installed in a DeltaV 2.5 network (new in DeltaV v13.3).

Simply provide the switch name and description and select a few setup parameters and the switch will begin reporting. A serial connection is no longer required to configure the switch.

Automatic reporting of network alarms and diagnostics to DeltaV workstations. Operators and maintenance stations will automatically receive device alerts that indicate abnormal network communications.

The DeltaV Network Device Command Centre application provides an interface for diagnosing and troubleshooting network problems. All of this is built-in, eliminating the need for third-party applications for network monitoring.

Plug and Play Installation. The new generation of DeltaV Smart Switches feature a DeltaV-compatible setup that installs out of the box into a compatible DeltaV network.

They require no user configuration to fully support DeltaV network communications.

NDCC ensures that the configuration of all Smart Switches on the network remains consistent, so you never have to worry about misconfigurations affecting network performance.

Plug and Play requires that any existing switch or network device be configured for 100/1000 full-duplex communication or auto-negotiation.

Auto-lock prevents unauthorised network connections. Disabling unused network connections is a security “best practice” that helps you comply with factory security policies.

With the switch’s built-in one-click lockout feature, you simply click a button in the DeltaV Network Appliance Command Centre application to

to automatically lock all unused network ports on your system. Easily protect your network from intrusion.

The port locking algorithm has been enhanced to allow locking of multiple daisy-chained DeltaV nodes, as well as detection of new nodes within dynamically determined uplink ports.

You can also configure the switch to ignore www.ge-drive.com lockdown commands on specific switch ports if the application requires it.

For example, a port connected to a virtualised host server to allow DeltaV VMs to move between hosts.

Accessing the Console. Secure Shell (SSH) and serial connections are provided using a USB-C cable (except for the RM2040).

The Advanced Configuration menu includes a handful of settings that allow you to customise the switch for your specific use case while conforming to the requirements of the DeltaV Regional Control Network.

SSH communications provide a secure connection to the switch console.

Encryption in SSH communications provides additional security for switch operation and maintenance by protecting user credentials and preventing interception.

Full range of switch hardware configurations. The new generation of DeltaV network switches offers a wide range of hardware solutions.

From 30-port rackmount units to ffxed-port DIN-rail switches, DeltaV network switches meet a wide range of network requirements.

The extensive line of DeltaV Smart Switches is all you need to implement a complete DeltaV control network.

Emerson provides full support. As an Emerson product, these DeltaV network switches are fully supported by Emerson when used in a DeltaV network.
