    Study Notes

    TPS Integration Basics

    • Integration Overview: Experion systems can be integrated with TPS systems. This integration involves specific Experion nodes, including Experion Server TPS (ESVT) and Experion Station TPS (ES-T).
    • Network Connections: Both ESVT and ES-T have LCN connections, directly connecting them to the TPS system. They are also connected to Fault Tolerant Ethernet (FTE), providing access to C200, C300, UOC, and vUOC on the FTE network.
    • ESVT and SCADA Connections: ESVT has access to SCADA controllers.
    • Enhanced Network Interface Module (ENIM): Acts as a bridge between the LCN and the EUCN (Universal Control Network over Ethernet using FTE technology).
    • Enhanced High Performance Manager (EHPM): Connected to the ENIM and EUCN.
    • Enhanced TPS Nodes (ETN): Provide a platform for both physical and virtual nodes. Virtual nodes run within an ESXi host node.
    • ELCN Bridge: The only Experion LCN node connected to the classic LCN. Other ELCN nodes communicate with the LCN through the ELCN bridge.
    • ELCN Nodes & FTE: ELCN nodes like the AM and ENIM are connected to FTE at Level 2.
    • Experion and TPS Integration: The integration merges the two systems, with TPS functionality becoming part of Experion.
    • GUS Applications: From Experion release 400, GUS applications are hosted on EST.
    • TPS R421: The last separate release for TPS software.
    • Experion Release 400 and Beyond: TPS functionality became available only in Experion nodes.
    • Experion LCN Support: Experion includes support for LCN Release 535.
    • TPS and Experion Software Evolution: A table detailing the software versions and their evolution, including supported operating systems, is available.
    • TPS Personality Files Integration: Starting with Experion release 501, TPS personality files are integrated into standard installation and migration processes. They can be installed during the installation of ESVT, ACE T, and EST nodes.
    • TPS Configuration Steps:
      • Network Configuration File (NCF): Configure ESVT as an Application Module and EST as a Universal Station.
      • Experion Configuration Studio: Configure a TPS System Interface to define the interaction between the Experion server and the TPS system, including mapping TPS units to Experion assets.
      • Console Station Configuration: Each EST is configured as a console station with its specific station connection properties.
      • Console Extension Station Configuration: Each EST is configured with the number of console extension stations it will host, and each extension station's connection properties are defined.
    • Cluster Sharing: Up to 5 Experion clusters can share the same LCN if TPS units are divided among the ESVTs.
