5 1.1 Scope of control for Site HMI The Central Office has a ControlLogix (CLX) PLC acting as gateway to all future CLXs in various Substations. The Central Office CLX now connects to the Central PLC5 PLC and receives operational status from existing PLC5s. Through a Site wide fiber network, the Central CLX will be connected to Sub2A HMI Station and a PLC Engineering Work Station. The Central CLX will not control any equipment but it performs the very important and centralized task of Route Selection and Interlock. The Site HMI runs the same Factory Talk View Client application as the Sub2A HMI in the Substation 2A. The Site HMI has the following major components: - Title Bar - Site Overview - Major Equipment Status - Route Handling - PLC Status May 8, 2009 Page 5 of 32

26 5.0 Route Handling Route selection may be carried out in either the HMI Station in the Central Office or in individual Substation. The idea is to offer the maximum flexibilities to the operation of the plant while maintaining the maximum integrities and safety in route selection. This is done by centralizing the route interlocks in the Central ControlLogix PLC with route selection requests made from every substation. Route selected and running are shown in the route status table so that operator is made well aware of the present route status before he make any route request. When the operator makes a route request, a small map will pop up showing the requested route. Confirmation pop up will be shown once the operator presses either the Select or Deselect button. 5.1 Accessing the Route Selection Table There are two ways to access the Route Selection Table: 1. Direct from Title Bar 2.1 From the Navigation Pane 2.2 Press for Route: May 8, 2009 Page 26 of 32
