Section 1 Introduction
Product Overview
The Operator Workplace is used for process monitoring and control. It has a generic
design and can be used for different process control systems.
The 800xA for Safeguard is a software product that enables you to connect an
Operator Workplace to Safeguard Controllers in a MasterBus 300 network.
Product Scope
The 800xA for Safeguard is built on the 800xA for Advant Master. This is
integrated in the Operator Workplace and provides the following features:
• support for single and dual Safeguard controllers.
• handling of dual controllers as one object in the operator’s workplace.
• execution of operator commands in both controllers.
• status and diagnostic display for both single and dual controllers.
• faceplates, object displays and alarm/event handling consistent with AC 400
Controllers.
• signal filtering.
The supported Safeguard functions and functional units are:
• FI (Fire Input), loop monitored digital inputs.
• FD (Fire Detector), for addressable detectors.
• GI (Gas Input), loop monitored analog inputs.
• Fireguard central, control and monitoring.

What you can do with 800xA for Safeguard Section 1 Introduction

•C&Eshutdownlevel.
• Safeguard system status and control
What you can do with 800xA for Safeguard
The following are various configuratios which can be done using 800xA for
Safeguard.
• Configure the connection of the workplace to Safeguard controllers on
MasterBus 300 control network.
• Setup the workplace for handling the process data defined in the database of
Safeguard controller. The database is uploaded from the controllers through
network.
• Setup the event handling for the process events that are reported from the
Safeguard controllers.
• Collect and present System status for the Safeguard controllers.
• Apply filter to suppress display of events arising from a specified controller.
Prerequisites and Requirements
The general hardware and software requirements for the 800xA system is described
in IndustrialIT 800xA, System, System Installation (3BSE034678*).

Section 2 Operation
Operating Overview
The operation of Safeguard controllers and implementation of safety applications
described in this section are:
• Start-up and dual system synchronization
• Safeguard system status monitoring
• Bypass Management and exception handling (blocking, inhibit)
• Calibration of Gas detectors
• Signal Filtering
Start-up Sequence
During start-up of Safeguard controllers, the system software initiates several
safety-related functions:
1. Base system start-up test.
2. Initialization of process communication.
3. Start of AMPL-programs exempted from normal safety start up.
4. Dual start up database synchronization.
5. Start of AMPL-programs with normal safety start-up.
6. Start of AMPL-programs with delayed safety start-up.
The start-up progress can be monitored in the Safeguard system status display. For
more information, refer to Safeguard Status Monitoring on page 14.

Safeguard Status Monitoring Section 2 Operation
14 3BNP004849-600
The system errors that occur during the start-up, are displayed in the status display
and alarms are generated.
Safeguard Status Monitoring
Status Object
Figure 1. Safeguard Status Presentation (Side A and B)
The Safeguard Status Object is an MMCX object with configured reftype = 38 in
the Safeguard controllers. In the Control structure of Plant Explorer this object type
is named MMCX3.
When a Safeguard system is created in the Control Structure and an upload is
performed, all objects are included in Extended Process Object and Local IO (as
for AC400 controller types).
The Safeguard Status Object (MMCX3) is located beneath each of the branches of a
Safeguard controller (see Figure 2). This is the only object that is not uploaded
beneath the virtual Safeguard controller object. Each branch of a dual system has its
own status object which can be viewed and displayed individually. The operator can
obtain the status of ‘Side A’ and ‘Side B’ independently.
The Safeguard Status object can also be added to the Functional Structure. This is
done when a Status object presentation is used in process displays (see Figure 1)
because it is easier to find it in the Object Browser of the Graphic Builder.
A fixed display of an operator workplace can be customized to include a Safeguard
Status object presentation or an object shortcut can be added to the application bar.
The other presentation elements are the Faceplate and the Object display.

Section 2 Operation Faceplate
3BNP004849-600 15
The safety critical applications that are subject to certification by authorities require
diagnostic capabilities and status visualization available to the operators during the
system degraded mode time.
Faceplate
The Safeguard status faceplates presents the following:
• Name and description of the individual controllers.
• Status of the controllers.
• Operator messages and warnings with scrolling facilities.
• Status of the output units.
• Group error indication.

In a faceplate, the user can activate a lock mode for an object to prevent other
operators to view and control that object. This object may appear to be locked in
only one of the two sides of a dual Safeguard system. This condition terminates
automatically. The user can also create an additional lock on the faceplate.

Object Display
The Object Display is similar to the faceplate and presents Safeguard system status
messages in a larger, full screen frame as shown in Figure 4. This displays:
• Name and description of the individual controllers.
• Status of the controllers.
• Operator messages and warnings.
• Status of the output units.
• Group error indication.
• C&E communication status.
• Isolate control of the Master Vote 3000 outputs.
• Alarm and print blocking.
• C&E matrix communication blocking.
For maintenance purpose, a local panel is often installed in the control rooms with
the following facilities:
• Activation of local control.
• Request for local Safeguard controller isolation.
• Request for On-Line Builder communication.
