PROFIBUS-PA

1 PROFIBUS-PA
The PROFIBUS-PA is a fieldbus version for process automation based on the widely used
PROFIBUS-DP. The transmission technique conforms with the IEC 61158-2 standard andtherefore fulfills the requirements for the type of protection, intrinsic safety.
PROFIBUS-DP defines two types of masters:− Class 1 master exchanges the data with the configured slaves.
− Class 2 master is used for acyclic data exchange for commissioning and diagnostics purposes.

2 Profile
Basic device functions have been described in profiles by PNO (PROFIBUS user organization) to supplement the EN 50170 standard.
The scope of functions of the Type 3730-4 Positioner is consistent with Profile 3.01 for final
control elements. However, it still fulfills all obligatory functions of Profile 3.02, e.g. the automatic implementation on replacing old device models and versions or concerning the condensed state according to the NAMUR Recommendation NE 107.

Cyclic data transfer

1.1 GSD files and automatic ID number adaptation
The General Station Description file (GSD file) is included in the scope of delivery for every
PROFIBUS positioner and supplies all information required for the cyclic exchange of processdata (set point, status, etc.) with the host system and for configuring the PROFIBUS network.
Each positioner and its GSD file has a unique ID number (ident number) assigned to it. This
allows the host to check the compatibility between the configuration in the system and the actual device.
The ID number (ident number) of the GSD file must be the same as the ID number of the device to ensure successful integration.

Replacing positioners with automatic adaptation of the ID number

The Automatic Ident Number Adaption function allows a Type 3785 Positioner to be replaced
by a Type 3730-4 Positioner without having to replace the GSD file in the host system: The
configured GSD file/ID number of the positioner is checked by the host (compatibility test)
during the transition to cyclic data exchange. If the positioner is in the compatibility mode,
the GSD file/ID number of the Type 3785 Positioner (Profile 2.0 and Profile 3.0) is also
accepted by the positioner. The positioner changes to cyclic data exchange.
The functions of the active positioner model (active ID number) are only supported by theprocess control system for communication.
Example: If the Type 3730-4 Positioner is operated in the compatibility mode for Type 3785
Profile 3.0, the diagnosis telegram then communicates as with Type 3785. Diagnosis bits,
which were first introduced with Profile 3.01, are not set. Additionally, the DI Blocks ofType 3730-4 cannot be used as they are not available in Type 3785.

Cyclic data transfer

Proceed as follows to replace the Type 3785 Positioner with the Type 3730-4 Positioner:
Configuration over PROFIBUS must be performed with the associated EDD or DTM ofType 3730-4 as this is the only way to access the device parameters.
1. The Type 3730-4 Positioner must be mounted and connected properly (u EB 8384-4).
2. Change the bus address of Type 3730-4 to the same bus address as Type 3785. This canbe done over the PROFIBUS protocol (DEVICE_ADDRESS parameter), using the TROVISVIEW software or in Code 46 in the positioner.
3. Start up the positioner (u EB 8384-4).
Note
After initialization (in step 2), the positioner is in compatibility (adaptation) mode (IDENT_NUMBER_SELECTOR parameter in the Physical Block). Do not change this setting.

CHECKBACK – Device status

3.1 Integration for PCS7 control system
The following instructions must be observed on integrating the positioner into a Siemens
Simatic S7 control system to ensure that the positioner functions properly:
1. The module in Slot 1 can be read out over the function component SFC 14 DPRD_DAT
and, for example, assigned to a data module.
2. Existing modules in Slot 2 and/or Slot 3 need to be allocated over the MOVE commandas the use of SFC 14 is not permissible in this case.
Note− Data consistency is first provided from a data length of 3 bytes or 5 bytes.
− Use the MOVE command for data types BYTE, WORD and DWORD.
− If the SFC 14 is to be used over several slots, do not forget that the data length is always tobe regarded separately for each slot!

3.2 General instructions to start up the positioner
The positioner remains in the fail-safe position until it receives a valid set point from the process control system (status <0x80). S blinks on the positioner display to indicate that the positioner is in the fail-safe position (u EB 8384-4). First when a valid set point (status ≥0x80) isset, the positioner leaves the fail-safe position and follows the set point.

4 CHECKBACK – Device status
Each bit can be masked individually for cyclic communication by the class 2 master. This allows a targeted selection to be made from the active alarms.

1.3 Extended EXPERTplus diagnostics
The Type 3730-4 Positioner includes integrated diagnostic functions. Generated alarms areclassified and summarized in the PROFIBUS Profile 3.01 and 'Condensed status and diagnostic messages' extension (see section 5.3).
The EXPERTplus extended diagnostics provides the following in-service monitoring and outof-service tests to provide significant statements on the condition of the entire control valve.
Statistical information (in-service monitoring)− Data logger− Histograms− Cycle counter− Trend of travel end position− Drive signal diagram− Hysteresis measurement
Tests (out-of-service tests)− Drive signal diagram over the full range of the valve− Hysteresis test diagram over the full range of the valve− Static characteristic− Partial stroke test (PST)The diagnostic tests are completely integrated into the positioner. The PROFIBUS-PA protocol
allows parameters to be entered and test results to be read. The graphs depend on the process control system used.
Further status alarms are generated from the extensive information compiled during the diagnostic tests performed by EXPERTplus, which provide users with information covering the entire control valve.
The required reference graphs are automatically plotted after initialization and saved in thepositioner, provided automatic recording is activated with Code 48 - h0 in EXPERTplus.

Measured value status and valve diagnostics

5.1 Classification of status messages and the condensed state
Note
The following description only applies to positioners configured corresponding to the Profile 3.01 with the 'Condensed status and diagnostic messages' extension (set in the COND_STATUS_ DIAG parameter of the Physical Block).
The alarms are classified in the positioner, i.e. when an alarm is issued, it is assigned a status. The classification of the states can be changed.
To provide a better overview, all status messages are summarized in a condensed state,
which is made up from a summary of all classified messages in the positioner. The condensed state is summary of all status messages.
If an event is classified as “No message”, this event does not have any affect on the condensed state. If the classification “No message” is assigned for a diagnostic alarm, this alarm
is not included in the diagnostic parameters. To be able to read all diagnostic alarms regardless of their assigned classification, they are entered in DIAGNOSIS_EXT_1_RAW and DIAGNOSIS_EXT_2_RAW parameters.
The following states can be selected (see Fig. 2):− Maintenance alarm: The positioner cannot perform its control task due to a malfunctionin the positioner itself or in one of its peripherals or the positioner has not yet been successfully initialized.
− Maintenance required: The positioner still performs its control task (with restrictions). A
maintenance demand or above average wear has been determined. The wear tolerance
will soon be exhausted or is reducing at a faster rate than expected. Maintenance is necessary in the medium term.
− Maintenance required: The positioner still performs its control task (with restrictions). A
maintenance requirement or above average wear has been determined. The wear tolerance will soon be exhausted or is reducing at a faster rate than expected. Maintenance isnecessary in the short term.
− Process-related fault/Out of specification: The current process conditions do not allow avalid calculation of values.
− Function check: Test or calibration procedures are performed in the positioner. The positioner is temporarily unable to perform its control task as long as the procedure is taking
place.

Status modification
The classification of the status alarms can be assigned as required using the TROVIS-VIEW
software connected to the local SSP interface of the positioner or over the PA parameters.
All extended alarms generated by the EXPERTplus diagnostics are assigned the “No message” status by default.
Logging and displaying diagnostic functions/alarms
The last 30 alarms are logged in the positioner. An alarm that is generated repeatedly is only
logged once when it first occurs.
The alarms and the condensed state appear on the display as described in the code list(u EB 8384-4). In addition, the diagnostic parameters are available over the communicationinterface of the positioner. The diagnostic functions can easily be displayed and configured
using the TROVIS-VIEW software connected over the local interface (SSP) or over the PROFIBUS protocol.
The COND_STATUS_DIAG parameter in the Physical Block allows you to select whether themeasured value status is to be set according to Profile 3.01 or according to the 'Condensed
status and diagnostic messages' profile extension.

Measured value status and valve diagnostics

5.3 Standard diagnostics with PROFIBUS-DP protocol
Generated alarms are classified and summarized in the PROFIBUS Profile 3.01 and 'Condensed status and diagnostic messages' extension.
The diagnostic approach complying with PROFIBUS-DP includes the following types of diagnostic transfer:− The DP master class 1 reads the diagnosis of the DP slave while the cyclic data exchange
is being set up.
− in case of an active diagnostic alarm, the slave responds during the data exchange witha high-prioritized response telegram.
The master requests a diagnosis as a result to continue afterwards with the normal dataexchange.
The diagnostic alarm is made up of the standard diagnosis according to PROFIBUS-DP protocol and the user-specific diagnosis. The first six octets of the diagnostic alarm are as-signed
to the standard diagnosis, essentially providing a statement about the state of the cyclic connection. Special attention is given to the DIAG.ext bit (octet 1). The slave uses this bit to indicate to the master that the output data are invalid. As a result, the master interrupts the cyclic
data exchange to read out the diagnostic data. The master first returns to cyclic data exchange when the DIAG.ext bit is reset by the slave.
If, however, the DIAG.ext bit is set to 0, the existing data are treated as status information by
the system. For the Type 3730-4 Positioner, this behavior can be determined by the FEATURE_SELECT parameter. By selecting the option “DIA_MAINTENANCE_ALARM sets DIAG_
EXT bit“, the DIAG_EXT bit is set when the DIA_MAINTENANCE_ALARM bit has been determined.
Deactivate this option if all the data of the positioner should be used as status information.
On using the Profile 3.01 the DIAG_EXT bit can be set when the measured value status has
been assigned to BAD_DEVICE_FAILURE. This only happens when the following errors, whichlead to device failure, occur:− Check calculation− Fatal error− Program loading error− No production calibration− Hardware− i/p converter

KH 8384-4 EN

Measured value status and valve diagnostics

On using the 'Condensed status and diagnostic messages' extension, the assignment can beselected as required.
The first four bytes of the manufacturer-specific diagnosis are used for diagnostic alarms according to Profile 3.01. On using the 'Condensed status and diagnostic messages' extension,these condensed diagnostic alarms are also included in these bytes. The manufacturer-specific diagnosis listed in the following table is transmitted in the eleventh byte and higher. The
contents of both parameters of the Physical Block, DIAGNOSIS and DIAGNOSIS_EXT, aresent.
Standard diagnosis according to PROFIBUS-DP protocol
Regardless of whether the positioner has been integrated according to Profile 3.01 or using
manufacturer specifications, the diagnosis can be restricted to six bytes. For this purpose, the
FEATURE_SELECT parameter provides the option “Use DP standard diagnosis (6 bytes)” (seepage page 51). The default setting causes the positioner to provide a manufacturer-specific diagnosis of 26 bytes and a diagnosis of 14 bytes according to Profile 3.01.

Partial stroke testing over DP-V0

The partial stroke test is analyzed by the DI Function Block (Discrete Input) of the positioner.
One of the following messages is assigned to the discrete information:
0: Test not completed successfully
1: Test OK
2: PST was not performed
3: Test analysis not successful
For further analysis, the condensed state can be analyzed with the second DI Function Block(see section 5.1).
