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.

Fully supported by Emerson.

As Emerson products, these DeltaV Network Switches are completely supported

by Emerson when used within the DeltaV network.

You receive full technical support from our Global Service

Center, warranty support, product support, and education — all from Emerson.

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 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.

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.

Removal and Insertion

This unit cannot be removed or inserted with system

power energized.

Power must be de-energized before disconnecting

any carriers or LocalBus Extender cables.

This product must not be unplugged unless either

the system has been de-energized or the area is

known to be safe. No combination of I/O carriers and

LocalBus Extenders must exceed a length of 6.5

meters. Interconnecting cable between enclosures

must be in conduit.

Maintenance and Adjustment

This unit contains no user serviceable parts and

should not be disassembled for any reason.

Calibration is not required.

PMCspan Details

CarrIEr BoarDS

Emerson offers a full line of PowerPC® microprocessor

based VME products which can be custom configured

for specific applications via on-board PMC slots. The

PMCspan expands this capability to further increase

customizing alternatives. It is compatible with Emerson’s

PowerPlus VME series. For further information on

these host CPUs, contact your local sales representative.

ProDuCT oFFErIng

In order to support the increased PCI bus loading

associated with additional PMCs, PMCspan uses the

PLX6150. This PCI-to-PCI interface bridge supports a

32-bit primary bus interface and a 32-bit secondary

bus interface. PMCspan mates directly with the host

CPU via the separate PCI expansion connector.

When the maximum of two PMCspan modules are stacked

together, the top board does not require a second PCI

to-PCI interface bridge. Software views this secondary

module as an extension to the primary PMCspan.

The PMCspan board provides VMEbus processor

modules with greater expansion capabilities

• Single-slot 6U VMEbus format

• PLX6150 PCI-to-PCI interface bridge

• Support for two single-wide or one double-wide PCI Mezzanine

• Card (PMC) per PMCspan

• Stacking capability

• Front-panel and/or P2 I/O

• Compliant with PCI local bus specification (revision 2.1)

• Injector/ejector handles per VME64 extensions

• Compatible with Emerson’s PowerPlus VME series

The Emerson Network Power PMCspan board allows users to customize their exact I/O

requirements with Emerson’s VME-based CPU modules designed around the PowerPlus architecture.

When a PMCspan board is coupled with an Emerson processor module, the system

provides up to six PCI Mezzanine Cards (PMCs), more expansion capability than any

other VME-bus processor module. Each PMCspan board supports either two single

wide or one double-wide PMC. By stacking PMCspan boards onto a processor module,

a total of four additional single-wide PMCs can be added to Emerson’s compute

engines – either today or as future application growth demands.

The PMCspan is a standard 6U single-slot VMEbus module that links to its host board

via a PCI expansion connector. It supports both front panel and P2 I/O access for customer supplied

PMCs.

NextGen DeltaV SIS Smart Switches

The DeltaV SIS Smart switches are “built-for-purpose” switches with DeltaV SIS specific software and

features to make them plug-and-play in the safety network.

DeltaV SIS Smart Switches require no configuration to function on the safety network.

DeltaV SIS NextGen Smart Switches and the legacy DeltaV SIS Smart Switches are the only supported

switch to be used within the LSN and GSN.

DeltaV SIS Smart Switches are different than DeltaV Smart switches (non-SIS) and are not

interchangeable.

The GSN requires DeltaV SIS NextGen Smart Switches or the

legacy DeltaV SIS Smart Switches with software release 4.2.14 or greater.

The GSN is certified according to the concept of black channel

per IEC61508-2. Therefore, the GSN hardware components

are considered as an interference free hardware component of the SIS.

GSN Hardware Includes:

• NextGen DeltaV SIS Smart Switches

• LSNBs to communicate with other LSNs throughout the GSN.

LSNB communicates over the GSN with other LSNBs,

allowing great flexibility and ease of system expansion.

Up to 16 LSNBs can publish safety data into one GSN domain

but the maximum number of LSNBs publishing information

depends on amount of data published by each LSNB.

There is no limit for the number of LSNBs subscribing to

information from the GSN. Prior to v14.LTS, only one domain

was supported within the GSN, starting v14.LTS and later,

up to 16 domains are supported within the GSN. Refer to

Books Online for more information about system capacities.

Only DeltaV SIS Smart Switches are supported on the GSN.

The GSN requires DeltaV SIS NextGen Smart Switches or the

legacy DeltaV SIS Smart Switches with software release 4.2.14 or greater.

The GSN is certified according to the concept of black channel

per IEC61508-2. Therefore, the GSN hardware components

are considered as an interference free hardware component of the SIS.

For Use in SIL 3 Applications

The GSN is certified for use in SIL 3 applications.

Wiring

The GSN requires the use of ScTP cable for the 100/1000 BaseT/

TX safety network.

The maximum twisted-pair cable length for the GSN for any

LSNB is 100 meters (328 feet).

The LSNB contains Ethernet ports to provide the redundant

communication for both the LSN and GSN.

Fiberoptic Wiring

Ethernet on the LSNB carrier are available for copper

only. DeltaV SIS Smart Switches can be connected using

fiberoptic cables.

Because fiberoptic cables do not conduct electricity,

they should be used in connections between buildings

or in plant areas where electromagnetic interference is present.

Fiberoptic cabling must be used where cable runs are longer

than 100 meters (328 ft.).
