Electrostatic Discharge Awareness

All electronic equipment is static-sensitive, some components more than others.
To protect these components from static damage, you must take special
precautions to minimize or eliminate electrostatic discharges.
Follow these precautions when working with or near the control.
1. Before doing maintenance on the electronic control, discharge the static

electricity on your body to ground by touching and holding a grounded metal
object (pipes, cabinets, equipment, etc.).
2. Avoid the build-up of static electricity on your body by not wearing clothing
made of synthetic materials. Wear cotton or cotton-blend materials as much
as possible because these do not store static electric charges as much as
synthetics.
3. Keep plastic, vinyl, and Styrofoam materials (such as plastic or Styrofoam

cups, cup holders, cigarette packages, cellophane wrappers, vinyl books or
folders, plastic bottles, and plastic ash trays) away from the control, the
modules, and the work area as much as possible.
4. Do not remove the printed circuit board (PCB) from the control cabinet
unless absolutely necessary. If you must remove the PCB from the control
cabinet, follow these precautions:
• Do not touch any part of the PCB except the edges.
• Do not touch the electrical conductors, the connectors, or the

components with conductive devices or with your hands.
• When replacing a PCB, keep the new PCB in the plastic antistatic
protective bag it comes in until you are ready to install it. Immediately
after removing the old PCB from the control cabinet, place it in the
antistatic protective bag.
To prevent damage to electronic components caused by improper handling,
read and observe the precautions in Woodward manual 82715, Guide for
Handling and Protection of Electronic Controls, Printed Circuit Boards, and
Modules.

General Information
Introduction
This manual describes the Woodward Atlas-II™ Digital Control. It provides a
variety of useful information for the user ranging from simple basic descriptions to
detailed information on wiring, specifications, and functionality. Included are:
• General information on the Atlas-II platform and available versions
• A physical description of the control hardware
• A description of all Atlas-II modules
• A listing of accessories that may be used with the platform
• Information on Atlas-II communications and distributed I/O interfaces
• Installation and maintenance
• Troubleshooting information
• For information on programming, networking, and communication protocols,
refer to the software manual provided with the control.
Atlas-II Control Description

The Atlas-II digital control platform fits a wide range of prime mover applications.
These include small mechanical-drive units with a minimum of complexity on up
to large two-shaft gas turbine generator sets that require unit sequencing and
load control. The Atlas-II control is programmed to the specific needs of the
prime mover and its driven load.
At the heart of the Atlas-II control is a 32-bit microprocessor that runs a powerful
Real Time Operating System. This operating system is specifically designed to
control the proper timing of all application code so that dynamic performance of
the final control system is absolutely guaranteed. Each piece of the application
code is “scheduled” under a Rate Group structure that ensures execution of the
code at a predetermined time.
Application programming is accomplished via Woodward’s GAP™ Graphical

Application Program. GAP is a pictures-to-code system that provides a high-level
programming environment for users who have control expertise but do not have
specific programming skills. Once the application program has been generated
and loaded into the Atlas-II control, the user can view variables and tune the
control with a variety of Woodward service tools. Connection to other devices,
such as an HMI, is accomplished by means of serial Modbus®* or Ethernet ports
on the control. The desired information flow is programmed into the control via
GAP. If required, distributed I/O can be connected using optional communication
modules that support Profibus and DLE Communications.
*—Modbus is a trademark of Schneider Automation Inc.
The hardware platform is based on the industry-standard PC/104 bus structure. In

the Atlas-II control, the backplane is the SmartCore board. The PC/104 modules
are “stacked” onto the SmartCore board in order to add I/O or other functionality.
Each of the stacked modules has an on-board DIP switch that is positioned to the
unique address of that particular module. The Atlas-II control uses a second stack
called the Power Bus Stack. This stack is used primarily for power-related I/O. The
control runs on low-voltage DC power (18–32 Vdc). Atlas-II field wiring is
accomplished via terminal blocks that plug into the control modules.
Woodward 1
Control Versions
The Atlas-II control provides a flexible platform that can be structured into a wide
variety of configurations of I/O and communications. The required number of I/O
modules and the types of communication modules that are required will depend
entirely on the specific application scenario. Table 1-1 shows the various
modules that are available.
Atlas-II Module List

• Power Supply
• SmartCore CPU A5200
• PowerSense
• Analog Combo I/O
• DLE Communications
• Profibus
Table 1-1. Atlas-II Modules
Figure 1-1 shows diagrammatically the physical arrangement of the modules in

the Atlas-II control hardware. The hardware uses two stacked-bus arrangements
to provide the required structure. The Power Bus Stack is used for the power-
related I/O as well as the discrete output drivers. The PC/104 Stack is used
primarily for the signal I/O, the main processor, and communications modules. All
configurations contain a SmartCore CPU A5200 module that spans both the
Power Bus Stack and the PC/104 Stack. If real power sensing is required in the
application, a PowerSense module is stacked above the SmartCore module and
also spans both bus stacks. If a PowerSense module is not specified, then an
additional Analog I/O module can be substituted. Figure 1-1 shows a “maximum”
example configuration (5 levels high).

Installation
Introduction
This chapter provides the general information for mounting location selection,
installation, and wiring of the Atlas-II™ control. Hardware dimensions, ratings,
and requirements are given for mounting and wiring the control in a specific
application.
General Installation
When selecting a location for mounting the Atlas-II control, consider the
following:
• Protect the unit from direct exposure to water or to a condensation-prone
environment.
• The control is deigned for installation in a protective metal enclosure such
as a standard cabinet with ingress protection rating of IP54.
• A standard “EMC” cabinet is required when installing into a Marine Type
Approval applications.
• Provide an ESD strap inside the cabinet for handling the equipment and
plugging/unplugging the connectors.
• The operating range of the Atlas-II control is –40 to +70 °C
(–40 to +158 °F) except when the Profibus module is used. See the
Environmental Specifications for more details.
• Provide adequate ventilation for cooling. Shield the unit from radiant heat
sources.
• Do not install the unit or its connecting wires near inductive, high-voltage, or
high-current devices. If this is not possible, shield both the system
connecting wires and the interfering devices or wires.
• Allow adequate space around the unit for servicing and wiring.
• Do not install where objects can be dropped on the terminals.
• Ground the chassis for proper safety and shielding.
• When installing on a generator set package, provide vibration isolation.
Shipping Carton
Before unpacking the control, refer to the inside front cover and page vi of this
manual for WARNINGS and CAUTIONS. Be careful when unpacking the control.
Check for signs of damage such as bent or dented panels, scratches, and loose
or broken parts. If any damage is found, immediately notify the shipper.
The Atlas-II control was shipped from the factory in an anti-static foam lined
carton. This carton should always be used for transport of the control or for
storage when the control is not installed.
Woodward 5
Mounting
Figure 1-2 shows the Atlas-II control layout and mounting pattern. The Atlas-II
digital control is to be mounted in an appropriate enclosure for the installed
environment. This equipment is designed for installation within a control room
panel or cabinet.
WARNING—MOUNTING
This equipment is intended to be installed in a metal cabinet or enclosure to
provide protection against the entry of dust or water and to protect against
mechanical impact. For ATEX compliance, a minimum ingress protection
rating of IP54 is required for the enclosure.
The standard Atlas-II package must be mounted to allow sufficient room for
wiring access. Eight front panel mounting holes permit secure mounting.
Depending on its configuration, the Atlas-II weighs between 3.4 and 4.5 kg (7.5
and 10 pounds). A minimum of 25 mm (1 inch) of clear space around the outer
surfaces of the Atlas-II is adequate for ventilation, however approximately 75 mm
(3 inches) of space may be required for wiring, depending on wire size.
Environmental Specifications
Operating Temperature
The Atlas-II Control Platform operates in a specified ambient temperature of
–40 to +70 °C (–4 to +158 °F) with forced convection cooling. When the Atlas-II
contains a single Profibus module, the operating temperature is limited to –20 to
+60 °C (–4 to +140 °F). When the Atlas-II contains (2) Profibus modules, the
operating temperature is limited to –20 to +55 °C (–4 to +131 °F).
CAUTION—TEMPERATURE
Continuous operation with insufficient airflow or higher operating temperatures
will lead to reduced reliability and possible damage to the control.
Storage Temperature
The Atlas-II Control Platform is designed to be stored without applied power at
the temperature range of –40 to +85 °C (–40 to +185 °F). Any unit with Profibus
is limited to –20 to +70 °C (–4 to +158 °F).
Shock
The Atlas-II Control Platform was designed to meet the shock requirements
specified by MIL-STD-810C procedure 516.2, procedure 1 (30g, 11 millisecond
half sine pulse). During Shock, relay bounce shall be limited to less than 100 ms.
Vibration (Sinusoidal)
The Atlas-II Control Platform was designed and tested to meet Lloyd’s Test
Specification No. 1, 2002, Vibration Test 1. The Vibration test profile includes 3–
16 Hz, ±1 mm and 16–150 Hz, ±1.0g.
Audible Noise Emission

The Atlas-II Control Platform does not emit an audible noise above 70 dBA as
measured 1 meter away, with or without a fan.
Enclosure Protection
In order to meet Zone 2 European Group IIC, the Atlas-II Control must be
mounted in an enclosure that meets or exceeds IP 54.
6 Woodward
Altitude
The Atlas-II Control Platform is designed to operate up to 3000m / 9800 feet.
Electrical Connections
Most of the Atlas-II control’s terminal blocks are designed to be removed
by hand. The Atlas-II Control uses two different styles of pluggable terminal
blocks: Screw Connection (limited to the A5200 SmartCore board) and
“CageClamp”.
The pluggable terminal blocks on the SmartCore CPU A5200 board all utilize the
Screw Connection style terminal blocks (see Figure 2-1 for torque and
screwdriver requirements). The Screw Connection terminal blocks accept wires
from 0.08–1.5 mm² (28–16 AWG). Two 0.8 mm² (18 AWG) wires or three 0.3
mm² (22 AWG) wires can be easily installed in each terminal.
The pluggable terminal blocks on the modules (other than the A5200 SmartCore)
are screwless, CageClamp style blocks. The spring clamp can be actuated by
using a standard 2.5 mm (3/32 inch) flat bladed screwdriver (see Figure 2-2).
These terminal blocks accept wires from 0.08–1.1 mm² (28–18 AWG). Two 0.5
mm² (20 AWG) wires or three 0.3 mm² (22 AWG) wires can be easily installed in
each terminal.
Most of the Atlas-II control’s terminal blocks are designed to be removed by

hand. After Atlas-II input power is disconnected, the terminal blocks can be
removed one at a time by pulling them straight out. Be careful not to pull the plug
out at an angle, as this will fracture the end terminal. Wires for the all the
pluggable I/O terminal blocks should be stripped at 8 mm (0.3 inch).
Torque range for screws of Screw

Connection Terminal Blocks: 0.22–0.25

All AC wiring for voltages and currents is done with fixed screw barrier blocks
rather than pluggable terminal blocks. The fixed screw barrier blocks accept
wires terminated into terminal lugs for #6 screws.
Figure 2-3. Fixed Terminals
Grounding
Protective Earth (PE) must be connected to the termination point on the backside
of the unit next to the label with the symbol to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This connection will be made using a thread-forming screw (M4 x 6 mm). The
conductor providing the connection shall have a properly sized ring lug and wire
larger than or equal to 3.3 mm² (12 AWG).
The unit also needs low impedance grounding to earth, e.g. the cabinet or
enclosure used. The low impedance ground can be accomplished by one or
more of the following:
• A short 15 cm (6 inch) protective earth wire
• A 1.3 cm (0.5 inch) wide flat hollow braid less than 1 m long
• A 1.3 cm (0.5 inch) wide flat tin or lead/tin plated copper strap less than 1 m long
• The use of the eight mounting bolts and paint breaking washers.
WARNING—CHASSIS GROUND
Do not connect chassis ground or PE ground to signal common.
Safety Ground Wire Installation

• Safety wires must be routed against the grounded cabinet structure. Locate
safety ground wire 150 mm (6 inches) from unshielded cabling and 75 mm
(3 inches) from shielded cabling inside the cabinet, and 150 mm (6 inches)
from any I/O cabling exiting the cabinet.

Shielded Wire Preparation

Where shielded cable is required, cut the cable to the desired length and prepare
the cable as instructed below.
1. Strip outer insulation from both ends, exposing the braided or spiral wrapped
shield. Do not cut the shield or nick the wire inside the shield.
2. Using a sharply pointed tool, carefully spread the strands of the braided
shield to form a hole.
3. Pull inner conductor(s) out of the shield. If the shield is the braided type, twist
it to prevent fraying.
4. Remove 6 mm (1/4 inch) of insulation from the inner conductors.
5. Connect wiring and shield as shown in plant wiring diagram.
6. If a shield connection is not required or desired, fold back and secure or
remove the excess shield as needed.
General Wiring Guidance

For noise suppression reasons, it is recommend that all low-current wires be
separated from all high-current wires and high-voltage be separated from low-
voltage.
Input power ground terminal, not power return, should also be wired to earth
ground.
Installations with severe electromagnetic interference (EMI) may require

additional shielding precautions, such as wire run in conduit or double shielding.
Contact Woodward for more information.
Shields from the control to its loads or inputs can be directly grounded to earth at
both ends, if the cable length is sufficiently short to prevent ground loop current in
the shield (e.g. within a single cabinet).
Enclosure Installations: If the control is installed in a metal enclosure, as

intended, shielded I/O must be AC or DC terminated directly to the cabinet (earth
ground) at the entry to the cabinet, as well as at the control shield pins.
Specifics are provided in each individual installation section.
Non-Marine Enclosure Application Information

Cabinet Structural Grounding
• The cabinet needs to be a six-sided metal enclosure.
9 Do not use cabinet doors with windows—doors should be solid metal.
• The enclosure floor and/or top panels must provide holes for cable entry.
• Top and bottom cable entry areas must be restricted in size. Cable entry
aperture sizes should be minimized to the extent possible, the largest
dimension of any aperture (hole) is no greater than 152 mm (6 inches). This
is particularly important when RF transmitters, like push to talk radios or cell
phones, can be located near the cable access areas.
• An enclosed metal cable area or cable way joining to the cabinet may be
thought of as part of the enclosure; If it has no holes larger than 152 mm
(6 inches) and no RF transmitters can be present with in it. This allows larger
holes in the enclosure cable access plate. The enclosed cableway effectively
becomes part of the enclosure.
• The cabinet enclosure frame and device mounting areas must be bonded
(grounded) together.
• The frame shall be electrically connected at each structural interface
(<2.5 mΩ).

18 Woodward
Significant inrush currents are possible when current is applied to the Atlas-II
control. The magnitude of the inrush current depends on the power source
impedance, so Woodward cannot specify the maximum inrush current. Time-
delay fuses or circuit breakers must be used to avoid nuisance trips.
Input Power Wiring

Protective earth ground (PE) must be connected to the chassis at the termination
point on the unit labeled with . The power supply grounding

terminals should also be connected to earth to ensure grounding of the power
supply printed circuit boards. The grounding conductor must be the same size as
the main supply conductors or the combined PT wires, whichever is larger.
WARNING—DISCONNECTING DEVICE
The control’s power supplies are not equipped with input power switches.
For this reason, a fixed wiring installation is required and a switch or circuit
breaker shall be included in the building installation that is in close
proximity to the equipment and within easy reach of the operator and that is
clearly marked as the disconnecting device for the equipment. The switch or
circuit breaker shall not interrupt the protective earth conductor.
It is expected that the installation of this equipment will include over current
protection between the power source and the Atlas-II control. This over current
protection may be accomplished by series connection of properly rated fuses or
circuit breakers. Branch circuit protection of no more than 250% of the maximum
Atlas-II power supply input current rating must be provided. See Table 2-1 for
maximum recommended fuse ratings. This value meets the 250% UL listing
requirements. The use of properly sized UL class CC, J, T, G, RK1, or RK5 fuses
meet the requirements for branch circuit protection. Do not connect more than
one Atlas-II control to any one fuse. Use only the wire size specified in Table
2-1 or equivalent metric size which meets local code requirements. Time delay
fuses should be used to prevent nuisance trips.
Table 2-1 provides the power supply holdup time specification; which is the time
the supply will continue to operate within specification after its input power is
interrupted. This information may be useful in specifying uninterruptible power
supply (UPS) systems.

Application Guidelines
The following items are general guidelines intended to educate the system
integrator on potential installation and application issues that might arise when
the Atlas-II controller is applied.
Analog Inputs
The readback output on the AO_420_ATL block can be used to detect a fault
condition associated with the analog output. The readback output is available on
all analog output channels associated with the Atlas-II main board (A5200). The
readback fault output can also be used to monitor the analog outputs. It is
intended to detect a gross fault in the actual current versus current setpoint. Note
that the readback output does not have the same specifications as the analog
output. The readback function is intended as a gross check only. It is also
recommended that application software have filtering to use multiple rate groups
for readback indication before enunciating a fault.
Two of the connectors used for the analog inputs are identical. It is possible for
the end user to connect the wrong connector to the wrong input. The terminals
are numbered to minimize the chance of this happening however it is possible.
The system integrator should take precautions to ensure that it is easy to view
the terminal labels or design other methods to allow the user to easily identify the
correct cable for each connector.
Analog Input cables are shielded, and shields should be terminated directly at the
Atlas-II end and the cabinet entry/exit point.
Actuator Outputs
The actuator outputs on the Atlas-II main board have readback monitoring on
both the source side of the current driver circuit and the return side of the circuit.
The readback outputs can fault. These outputs can be used to monitor the
current loop associated with the actuator for open circuit conditions. These
monitoring inputs are intended to be used to detect a gross error in the actuator
driver current loop. It is also recommended that application software have filtering
to use multiple rate groups for readback indication before enunciating a fault.
Analog Output cables are shielded, and shields may be terminated directly
(preferred) or via AC coupling at the Atlas-II end and the cabinet entry/exit point.
Discrete Inputs
Two of the connectors used for the discrete input connections are identical. It is
possible for the end user to connect the wrong connector to the wrong input. The
terminals are numbered to minimize the chance of this happening however it is
possible. The system integrator should take precautions to ensure that it is easy
to view the terminal labels or design other methods to allow the user to easily
identify the correct cable for each connector.
Discrete Input cables are only required to be shielded for Marine Type Approval
applications, and shielding may be limited to the cabinet interior. Cable shields
should be terminated directly at the Atlas-II end and the cabinet entry/exit point.
Woodward 21
CAN Network
The connectors used for the CAN network connections are identical. It is possible
for the end user to connect the wrong connector to the wrong input. The
terminals are numbered to minimize the chance of this happening however it is
possible. The system integrator should take precautions to ensure that it is easy
to view the terminal labels or design other methods to allow the user to easily
identify the correct cable for each connector.
The CAN Network’s cables are shielded, and the shield should only be directly
terminated to earth at one point. The Atlas-II’s CAN shield pins are AC coupled to
earth and the shield may be direct connected (preferred) or AC coupled at the
Atlas-II end and the cabinet entry/exit point depending on the rest of the network.
Serial Ports
The connectors used for the serial port connections are identical. It is possible for
the end user to connect the wrong connector to the wrong input. The terminals
are numbered to minimize the chance of this happening however it is possible.
The system integrator should take precautions to ensure that it is easy to view
the terminal labels or design other methods to allow the user to easily identify the
correct cable for each connector.
Serial port cables are shielded and should be terminated directly at the Atlas-II
end and the cabinet entry/exit point. Take care with the shield termination at the
field device end.
Ethernet Connectors
The Atlas-II has four Ethernet connectors that are arranged in one connector.
The physical spacing between connectors is limited. This can create the situation
where it is easy to connect the wrong cable to the connector. Another
consideration is that the Ethernet cables are located on the side of the controller
which was not used for connections on the original AtlasPC™. In certain
installations, the space to access these connectors may be limited.
To mitigate the risk the system integrator should implement an Ethernet cable
labeling process to allow the user to easily identify which Ethernet cable
connects to each Ethernet port. The Atlas-II also has application level checks
that the system integrator should be aware of when designing a system.
At the GAP application level there are functions available to monitor the Ethernet
ports. The following functions can be implemented depending on the application
requirements.
Ethernet Status Block (ENET_STAT)

• Monitors the number of packets received and transmitted by each physical
Ethernet port.
• Provides diagnostic information about the low level Ethernet interface.
Modbus Communications
• Each Modbus interface block has a link error output that should be
monitored in the GAP application and appropriate action taken when a link
error occurs.
• The link error will not go FALSE unless the cables are connected properly.

• The field signal
s should be validated to ensure tha at the correct field signal is

d to the correcct analog inpu nded that this
validation is done by vieewing the field signal in the
e GAP appliccation.
9 Examp ple: If the analog input comes from a pre essure transducer then a
pressurre tester could be used to vary the analog output tha at is being
input to
o the Atlas. Th
his signal cann then be veriffied to be corrrect in the
GAP ap pplication.
Woodward
d 2
23
Analog Outputs
• Analog output values should be forced from the Atlas-II controller and
verified at the receiving device. Outputs should be checked at min and max
current values (4 – 20 ma).
9 Example: If the analog output is used to drive an indicator then the
output should be forced to several values and the indicator should be
monitored to ensure that the indicator is connected to the correct analog
output as defined by the GAP application.
• Verify that the total loop resistance is less than the specification limit defined
in the hardware manual.
Discrete Inputs
• The field contacts should be operated to ensure that the correct field device
is connected to the correct discrete input on the Atlas-II.
9 Example: If the discrete input tells the Atlas-II that a certain motor is
running then the motor should be operated and the input should be
viewed in the GAP software to ensure that software “sees” the change of
state.
• Verify that only the 24Vdc wetting voltage is connected to the discrete
inputs.
9 Check for AC by measuring all inputs from the input terminals to chassis
ground.
9 Check the discrete input common with respect to other power supply
commons to ensure that the discrete inputs are isolated from other
power supplies that are not used with the discrete inputs.
Discrete Outputs
• The discrete outputs should be forced and the resulting signal should be
confirmed at the field device.
9 Example: If the discrete output is input to another PLC then the output
should be forced from the GAP logic and verified in the PLC logic. If the
output drives a field device such as a motor starter then the output
should be forced and verified at the motor starter. Note: Before forcing
outputs to field devices verify that all necessary safety precautions are in
place.
Ethernet Connections
• The Ethernet connections should be removed one at a time and expected
faults should be verified in the Atlas-II software and also in the other device.
9 Example: If port 2 is connected to an HMI using the Modbus TCP
protocol then removing the Ethernet cable connected to port 2 should
cause a Link Error in the GAP application and a comm. fault in the HMI
application.
9 Note: Due to the identical design of the Ethernet ports and the potential
for similar cables, labeling is important to ensure that the user can easily
identify which cable goes to each connector.
CAN Connections
• The CAN network connections should be verified to ensure that the correct
networks are connected to the correct connector.
• Note: Due to the identical design of the two CAN ports and the potential for
similar cables, labeling is important to ensure that the user can easily
identify which network is connected to the CAN connectors.

ensured by certification through the safety agencies specified in the “Regulatory
Compliance” section of this document.
Troubleshooting Guide
Power Supply Checks
The following is a troubleshooting guide for checking areas, which may present
difficulties. If these checks are made prior to contacting Woodward for technical
assistance, system problems can be more quickly and accurately assessed.
• Is the input voltage within the control’s specified input voltage range
(measured at control power supply input)?
• Is the input power free of switching noise or transient spikes?
• Is the power circuit dedicated to the Atlas-II control only?

discrete outputs are low-side drivers having short circuit and thermal shutdown
protection. The discrete output drivers are not isolated from each other, and are
powered by an external +12 Vdc or +24 Vdc. They are isolated from the internal
power supplies of the Atlas-II Control platform.
• Is the input power within the range of 9–32 V?
• Is the input free of switching noise or transient spikes?
• Is the power circuit dedicated to the control only?
• Are the individual discrete output lines current limited by external series
connected components (example: relay coils) to <200 mA?

Configuration Notes
• Refer to Figure 3-2 for discrete output wiring.
• Discrete outputs are not normally shielded, however may be shielded and
are required to be shielded for Marine Type Approval applications.
o When shielding cables, shield at least from the Atlas-II to the cabinet
entry/exit point. Terminate the shield directly to the cabinet at the
entry/exit point and Atlas-II.
• The discrete output commons are tied together, so each power supply board
accepts only one voltage source.
• Power for the discrete outputs must be externally supplied, the external
supply must be capable of supplying a voltage between 9–32 V while
supplying up to 2.5 A. As specified in the Input Power Wiring Section,
branch circuit protection of no more than 250% of the maximum rated
current of the load (Discrete Output power input current plus 12 times the
maximum Discrete Output channel current) shall be provided. Fuse current
rating should not exceed 6.25 A (time delay fuses are recommended).

SmartCore CPU A5200 Board Operation

This board includes no potentiometers and requires no field calibration.
Speed Sensor Inputs

The MPU and proximity probe inputs are read and the speed is provided to the
application program. A derivative output is also provided. The speed sensor
inputs are filtered by the SmartCore CPU A5200 board with the filter time
constant being selectable in GAP software between 5 and 160 ms. Eight
milliseconds should be acceptable for most turbine applications, while 16
milliseconds may be necessary for very slow speed applications. The speed
range is selected in the application software and determines the maximum speed
that the board will detect. The control output of the software will detect a
minimum speed of one fiftieth of the speed range. This allows detection of failed
speed sensors to help prevent overspeed due to slow update times at very low
speeds. The monitor output of the GAP block will read down to 0.5 Hz,
regardless of the speed range. An application may use any combination of
accepted MPU and proximity probes, and any combination of speed ranges.
The SmartCore CPU A5200 board uses speed sensing probes mounted on a
gear connected or coupled to the turbine’s rotor to sense turbine rotor speed.
Either of the A5200 board’s speed channels accept passive magnetic pickup
units (MPUs) or proximity probes.
It is not recommended that gears mounted on an auxiliary shaft coupled to the

rotor be used to sense speed. Auxiliary shafts tend to turn more slowly than the
rotor (reducing speed sensing resolution) and have coupling gear backlash,
resulting in less than optimum speed control. For safety purposes, it is also not
recommended that the speed sensing device sense speed from a gear coupled
to a generator or mechanical drive side of a system’s rotor coupling.

A proximity probe may be used to sense very low speeds. With a proximity
probe, speed can be sensed down to 0.5 Hz. When interfacing to open collector
type proximity probes, a pull-up resistor is required between the supplied
proximity probe voltage and the proximity probe input to the SmartCore CPU
A5200 board.

Configuration Notes
• Refer to Figures 4-9 and 4-10 for speed sensor wiring.
• Each speed input channel can only accept one MPU or one proximity probe.
• Proximity probe power is not provided.
• Proximity probes only—External pull-up resistors are required when
interfacing to open collector type proximity probes.
• If the proximity probe inputs are used, the corresponding MPU inputs must
be jumpered as shown.

T = gear teeth
M = (overspeed test limit setting x 1.2)
R = gear ratio
Analog Inputs
The analog inputs accepts a 4-20 mA current signal and may be used with two-
wire ungrounded (loop powered) transducers or isolated (self-powered)
transducers. All Analog inputs have greater than 40 Vdc of common mode
rejection. If interfacing to a non-isolated device, which may have the potential of
reaching over 40 Vdc with respect to the control’s common, the use of a loop
isolator is recommended to break any return current paths, which could produce
erroneous readings.
For a 4–20 mA input signal, the SmartCore CPU A5200 board uses a 211 Ω
resistor across the input.

Configuration Notes
• Refer to Figure 4-12 for analog output wiring.
• Only 4–20 mA signals are output.
• See the specifications section for the maximum analog output load.
• Care should be taken to prevent ground loops and other faults when
interfacing to non-isolated devices.
• Each output provides readback capability that can be used to detect field
wiring or device faults as needed.
• The analog outputs have a 15 V common mode voltage, with respect to
Atlas-II control common.
CAUTION—CHECK CONNECTIONS
Avoid misconnection of the Analog Output (+) to the Actuator Output (–).
This will damage internal components, making the control inoperable.
CAUTION—CONNECTIONS TO NON-ISOLATED DEVICES

Signal Isolators should be used when connecting to non-isolated field
devices greater than 30 meters away.
Beware of Analog and Actuator output connections to non-isolated field

devices that are located greater than 30 meters away from the Atlas-II
Control. Ground potentials between different locations can be severe
enough under certain EMC/Surge events to cause control malfunction.
Actuator Outputs
The (2) proportional actuator driver outputs are software configurable as either 4-

Figure 4-14. Wiring Example–Discrete Input Interface to the SmartCore CPU

A5200 Board
Configuration Notes
• Refer to Figure 4-14 for discrete input wiring.
• The discrete input commons are tied together, so each SmartCore CPU
A5200 board accepts only one voltage source, which can be internally or
externally supplied.
• All contact inputs accept dry contacts.
• If an external power supply is used, it must be rated to 28 Vdc max from
Class 2 type source for North America (SELV type source for applications
outside North America). Power supply outputs must be fused with
appropriately sized fuses (a maximum, current rating of 100 ÷ V, where V is
the supply’s rated voltage, or 5 A, whichever is less).
• The 24 V isolated contact power is protected by a 0.3 A poly switch that is
rated for 0.1A continuous use. This may not prevent interruption in control
operation due to a short in the field wiring, but should protect the control from
damage. The poly switch will reset itself when the short condition is resolved.
Woodward 45
• If unused (floated) Discrete Inputs have an extended cable length attached
for future use, they must be ignored in software. Events such as large
transient pulses near the unused cable can cause them to momentarily
toggle.
• Marine Type Approval installations require Discrete Input cabling inside the
cabinet to be shielded if it leaves the cabinet.
Serial I/O
The SmartCore CPU A5200 accepts (2) user serial I/O connections. Both isolated
ports are configurable for RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485. RS-232 is specified to 50
feet (15 m) while RS-485 and RS-422 are specified to 4000 feet (1219 m).

Woodward 49
Configuration Notes
• RS-232. Refer to Figure 4-21 for RS-232 wiring. The transmit data (TXD),
receive data (RXD), and signal ground (SIG GND) must be properly
connected as shown. In addition the shield (SHLD) should be connected in
at least one location.
• RS-422. Refer to Figure 4-22 for RS-422 wiring. The transmit data pairs
(422T+ and 422T-), receive data pairs (422R+ and 422R-), and signal
ground (SIG GND) must be properly connected as shown. In addition, the
shield (SHLD) should be connected in at least one location. Only the
receiver at each end of the network should be terminated with a resistor.
• RS-485. Refer to Figure 4-23 for RS-485 wiring. The data lines (485+ and
485–) and signal ground (SIG GND) must be properly connected as shown.
In addition, the shield (SHLD) should be connected in at least one location.
The unit at each end of the network should be terminated with a resistor.
• Termination Resistors. The Atlas-II has termination resistors (TERM RES)
built into the SmartCore CPU A5200 board that can be jumpered-in as
required for RS422 and RS485 communication networks.
• The serial ports must be properly configured in the application software for
the appropriate communication parameters.
Reference Grounds
• The serial ports are individually isolated from each other, and from the rest
of the Atlas-II control. The RS-422 and RS-485 specifications state that a
ground wire is needed if there is no other ground path between units. The
preferred method for isolated ports is to include a separate wire in the
ground cable that connects the circuit grounds together.
• Non-isolated nodes may not have a signal ground available. If signal ground
is not available, use the alternate wiring scheme of connecting all circuit
grounds of isolated nodes to the shield, and connecting the shield to earth
ground at a non-isolated node.
Troubleshooting and Tuning

The SmartCore CPU A5200 module runs off-line and on-line diagnostics that
display troubleshooting messages through the debug Service Port and
AppManager. Off-line diagnostics run automatically on power-up and upon reset.
On-line diagnostics run during normal Control System operation when the GAP
application is active. More information on diagnostics tests, subsequent LED
flash codes, and serial port messages is contained in the VxWorks manual.
Fault Detection (Board Hardware)

Each SmartCore CPU A5200 board has a red fault LED that is turned on when
the system is reset. During initialization of a board, which occurs after every CPU
reset, the CPU turns the Fault LED on. The CPU then tests the board using
diagnostic routines built into the software. If the diagnostic test is not passed, the
LED remains on or blinks. If the test is successful, the LED goes off. If the fault
LED on a board is illuminated after the diagnostics and initialization have been
completed, the SmartCore CPU A5200 board may be faulty.

Fault Detection (I/O)

In addition to detecting board hardware faults, the application program may
detect I/O faults.
• Analog Input Faults—The application software may set a high and low latch
set point to detect input faults.
• Speed Sensor Input Faults—The application software may set a high and
low latch set point to detect input faults.
• Serial Port Faults—The system monitors the serial communications on the
serial ports for various communication errors.
• Microcontroller Faults—The system monitors a software watchdog, a
hardware watchdog, and a software watchdog on the PC/104 bus
communications. All outputs are shutdown in the event of a microcontroller
fault.
Speed Sensor Inputs
MPUs—If a magnetic pickup input is not functioning properly, verify the following:
• Check that the cable is shielded and the shield is properly grounded per the
shields and grounding section in Chapter 2.
• Measure the input voltage on the terminal block. It should be greater than 1
Vrms.
• Verify that the signal waveform is clean and void of double zero crossings.
• Verify that no signal return to ground connections exist and that the 60 Hz
signal resulting from ground loops is absent.
• Measure the frequency. Frequency should be in the range of 100 Hz to 25
kHz.
• Check the wiring. Look for a loose connection at the terminal blocks and
disconnected or misconnected cables.
• Check the software configuration to ensure that the input is configured
properly.
After verifying all of the above, the Atlas-II should be returned for service.
Woodward 51
Proximity Probes—If a proximity probe input is not functioning properly, verify
the following:
• Measure the input voltage on the terminal block. It should be in the range of
16–28 V peak, and the duty cycle should be within the specified range for
the input voltage.
• Measure the frequency. Frequency should be in the range of 0.5 Hz to 3
kHz.
disconnected or misconnected cables. If an open collector probe is used,
check to ensure that the pull-up resistor is installed properly.
properly.
• Verify that the corresponding MPU input is jumpered.
Analog Inputs
If an Analog input is not functioning properly, verify the following:
0–5 V.
• Verify that there are no or minimal AC components to the analog input
signal. AC components can be caused by improper shielding or grounding.
• Check the wiring. If the inputs are reading 0 or the engineering units that
correspond to 0 mA, look for a loose connection at the terminal blocks and
disconnected or misconnected cables. If the unit is a 4–20 mA input, check
for proper jumper installation on the terminal block.
• If all of the inputs are reading high, check that the power is not connected
across the input directly.
properly.
• If the input is loop powered, ensure that power is provided externally, the
Atlas control does not provide this power.
Analog Outputs
If an Analog output is not functioning properly, verify the following:
• Check the load resistance, ensure that it is less than the specification limit
for the output current.
• Check to ensure that the load wiring is isolated.
• Check the wiring, look for a loose connection at the terminal blocks and
• Disconnect the field wiring and connect a resistor across the output. If the
output is correct across the resistor, there is a problem with the field wiring.
52 Woodward
• Check the software configuration to ensure that the output is configured
properly.
Proportional Actuator Outputs

If an Actuator output is not functioning properly, verify the following:
properly.
Discrete Inputs
If a discrete input is not functioning properly, verify the following:
18–28 Vdc.
• If an external wetting voltage source is used, check the voltage source is
referenced to the A5200 wetting voltage’s common.

Serial I/O
If a serial port is not functioning properly, verify the following:
• Check to be sure that termination resistors are properly installed where
needed on the network.

Analog Combo Board Operation

Speed Sensor Inputs

The MPU inputs are read and the speed is provided to the application program. A
derivative output is also provided. The speed sensor inputs are filtered by the
Analog Combo board, and the filter time constant is selectable at 8 milliseconds
or 16 milliseconds. Eight milliseconds should be acceptable for most turbine
applications, sixteen milliseconds may be necessary for very slow speed
applications. The speed range is selected in the application software and
determines the maximum speed that the board will detect. The control output of
the software will detect a minimum speed of one fiftieth of the speed range. This
allows detection of failed speed sensors to help prevent overspeed due to slow
update times at very low speeds. The monitor output of the GAP block will read
down to .5 Hz, irrespective of the speed range. An application may use any
combination of accepted MPUs, and any combination of speed ranges.
The Analog Combo board uses speed sensing probes mounted on a gear
connected or coupled to the turbine’s rotor to sense turbine rotor speed. Any of
the board’s speed channels accept passive magnetic pickup units (MPUs) or
proximity probes. It is not recommended that gears mounted on an auxiliary shaft
coupled to the rotor be used to sense speed. Auxiliary shafts tend to turn more
slowly than the rotor (reducing speed sensing resolution) and have coupling gear
backlash, resulting in less than optimum speed control. For safety purposes, it is
also not recommended that the speed sensing device sense speed from a gear
coupled to a generator or mechanical drive side of a system’s rotor coupling.

Analog Inputs
The Analog inputs may be current or temperature inputs. The first 11 inputs can
be thermocouple inputs, and the other 4 inputs can be RTD inputs. The software
must be configured for the correct input type. This allows the Analog Combo card
to use the applicable hardware calibration values, and to configure the
appropriate hardware gains. The first 10 inputs must be configured in pairs, that
is, channels 1 and 2 must both be thermocouples or must both be 4–20 mA
inputs. Channels 11–15 may be configured individually.
All 4–20 mA inputs may be used with two-wire ungrounded (loop powered)
transducers or isolated (self-powered) transducers. All Analog inputs have 11
Vdc of common mode rejection. If interfacing to a non-isolated device, which may
have the potential of reaching over 11 Vdc with respect to the control’s common,
the use of a loop isolator is recommended to break any return current paths,
which could produce erroneous readings.
RTD inputs must be configured to use either the European or American curve.
200 Ω RTDs are limited to the maximum temperature on the American curve,
even when the European curve is used. The RTD source current is 2 ma, and the
RTD sense input should be tied to the negative side of the RTD, at the RTD.
See the specifications section for supported thermocouple types. The cold
junction sensor is provided on the Atlas-II Analog Combo board. If the actual cold
junction in the field wiring occurs elsewhere, the temperature of that junction
must be brought into the control as a thermocouple, RTD, or 4–20 mA input, and
the application software must be configured to use the appropriate cold junction
temperature.
The first 11 analog inputs are isolated as a group from control common, earth
ground, and the other 4 analog inputs. The last 4 analog inputs are also isolated
as a group from control common, earth ground, and the first 11 analog inputs.
For a 4–20 mA input signal, the Analog Combo board uses a 100 Ω resistor
across the input.

Fault Detection (I/O)

In addition to detecting board hardware faults, the application program may
detect I/O faults.
• Analog Input Faults—The application software may set a high and low latch
set point to detect input faults. For thermocouple inputs, open wire detection
is provided.
• Speed Sensor Input Faults—The application software may set a high and
low latch set point to detect input faults.
• Microcontroller Faults—The system monitors a software watchdog, a
hardware watchdog, and a software watchdog on the PC/104 bus
communications. All outputs are shutdown in the event of a microcontroller
fault.
Speed Sensor Inputs
If a magnetic pickup input is not functioning properly, verify the following:
• Measure the input voltage on the terminal block. It should be greater than
that shown in Figure 5-3.
• Measure the frequency. Frequency should be in the range of 100 Hz - 25
kHz.
properly; check the hertz to rpm ratio, and the maximum speed.
Woodward 65
Analog Inputs
If an Analog input is not functioning properly, verify the following:
0–5 V for 4–20 mA inputs. RTD inputs have a 2 mA current source.
Thermocouple inputs should have the appropriate millivolt signal.
• Verify that there are no or minimal AC components to the Analog Input
signal. AC components can be caused by improper shielding or grounding.
Thermocouple inputs are extremely sensitive to signal fluctuations.
• Check the wiring. For a 4–20 mA input if the input is reading 0 or the
engineering units that correspond to 0 mA, look for a loose connection at the
terminal blocks and disconnected or misconnected cables.
• For RTD inputs, check for proper connection of the sense line.
• For thermocouple inputs, check for proper cold junction location.
• If the input is reading high, check that the power is not connected across the
input directly.

• Voltage Bias output is software configurable for 4–20 mA, ±1 V, ±3 V, and
±9 V
• Voltage bias output is isolated from the rest of the board
• The LON port is isolated from the rest of the board
Physical
The Atlas-II™ PowerSense board connects to the CPU board through the PC/104
bus. It connects to the power supply, through the Atlas-II power bus. It requires a
SmartCore CPU A5200 board or a Pentium CPU board as a master controller. The
master controller is responsible for all application level tasks such as protective
relaying, load share, and controlling the voltage and speed bias outputs.
Hazardous Live
The following circuits are classified as Hazardous Live because they carry potential
shock hazardous voltages during normal operation or under single fault conditions:
• potential transformer (PT) inputs
• current transformer (CT) inputs
• voltage bias outputs
WARNING—HIGH VOLTAGE
Do not contact the above inputs and outputs during system operation when
such circuits are live. Possible serious personal injury or death could result.
Before disconnecting the secondary terminals of the current transformer or
the connections of the current transformer at the control, ensure that the
transformer is short-circuited.
Woodward 67
To prevent risk of electric shock, make sure that the terminal block covers
are installed on the above inputs before operation (see Figure 6-1).
Terminal Block
Figure 6-1. Terminal Block Covers
These inputs and outputs are provided with 500 V of dielectric isolation from
chassis ground. In addition, these inputs/outputs are isolated from safety extra-
low voltage (SELV) circuits (such as serial communication, PC/104 circuits) by
optoisolators or transformers provided with double insulation and 3 kVac of
dielectric isolation.

PowerSense Board Operation

A PowerSense board may be replaced with another board of the same part
number without any physical adjustment.
CAUTION—IMPORTANT APPLICATION NOTE:

When the PowerSense card is used for synchronizing, the GAP application
must be configured so that the timing is correct for the characteristics of the
PTCT_ATL and SYNCHRO blocks.
1) The rate group for both blocks must be set to "10".
2) Disable the synchronizer and verify that the SYNCHRO.SYNC_DIS is
<TRUE>.
3) Enable the PTCT_ATL.SMPL_TYPE by tuning to <TRUE>.
4) Delay 200 ms.
5) After the 200 ms delay, tune the SYNCHRO.SYNC_DIS to <FALSE>.
Please see the GAP help for further details on the remaining functionality of
these blocks.
PT Voltage Inputs
The PT inputs are designed to sense three phase voltage. All features of the
three phase voltage for the generator are exactly duplicated for the mains inputs.
The ‘A’ phase voltage inputs of each set (generator and mains) are used for
frequency measurement and synchronizing. The fundamental magnitude and
phase information is calculated, in addition to the magnitude and phase of each
harmonic. All harmonics are calculated, up to the 7th harmonic, as well as the
9th, 11th, and 13th harmonics. In addition the PT voltage inputs are used in
conjunction with the CT current inputs for power calculation purposes. All voltage
calculations are performed using algorithms in accordance with IEEE 1459-2000.
Individual fundamental and harmonic voltage inputs are provided. A negative

phase sequence voltage input, and a THD voltage input are also provided.
Three hardware ranges are provided and are selected by the application
software. The nominal inputs for these ranges are 70 V, 120 V, and 240 V. Using
the 70 V range, the lowest voltage that will be sensed it 26.67 V, using the 120 V
range the lowest voltage is 40 V, and using the 240 V range the lowest voltage is
80 V.
PT ratio and gain inputs are provided, to allow field configuration of the PT
scaling. The PT ratio will scale all three PT inputs by the same ratio. There is a
separate gain input provided for each PT input (3 for the generator and 3 for the
mains) that is provided to allow for compensation of potential transformer turns
ratio inaccuracies.
The PT inputs, have adjustable software filters. All PT inputs are updated every 3
cycles. With an input of 60 Hz, this equates to 50 ms.
74 Woodward
The hardware does not require three phases for voltage calculations, the
application can configure the module for single phase, and all functionality will be
modified accordingly. The single phase input that must be provided is the A
phase. The application can also configure the module for a “Y” or “delta” line
configuration, and the calculations will compensate appropriately. If the physical
connections are to a wye connected generator or load, the input to PowerSense
should also be wye connected (line-to-neutral). If the physical connections are to
a Delta connected generator or load (no neutral present), the input to
PowerSense should also be Delta connected (line-to-line). ). The “Y” or “delta”
configuration applies to the entire set of PT and CTs, it is not possible to
configure the PTs for “Y”, and the CTs for “delta”, or vice versa. However, the
configuration may differ between PT/CT 1 and PT/CT 2 (or gen and mains in a
typical configuration).
Configuration Notes
• Refer to Figures 6-4 through 6-8 for PT wiring.
• When using the 3 different PT ranges, 70 V, 120 V, and 240 V, the physical
input must be the correct voltage AND the application software must
configure the PT/CT block for the correct voltage range.
• When using a single phase input, the PT input used must be phase A, and
the application software must configure the PT/CT block for “single phase”
operation.
• The application software must configure the PT/CT block for the correct
system frequency 50Hz or 60 Hz, as well as for the correct rotation,
clockwise or counterclockwise.
• See the GAP help, for information on application software configuration
variables.
• The terminal block screws should be torqued to 8 – 10 lb-in (0.9038782 -
1.129848 Nxm).
• Marine Type Approval installations require cabling to be shielded if it leaves
the cabinet. PT wires may be shielded as a single group and the shield may
be conduit or similar.

Generator Current Inputs

The CT inputs are designed to sense three phase current inputs. The ‘A’ phase
current inputs of each set are used for phase calculations. The fundamental
magnitude and phase information is calculated, in addition to the magnitude and
phase of each harmonic. All harmonics are calculated, up to the 7th harmonic, as
well as the 9th, 11th, and 13th harmonics. In addition the CT current inputs are
used in conjunction with the PT voltage inputs for load calculation purposes. All
current calculations implement algorithms in accordance with IEEE 1459-2000.
Individual fundamental and harmonic CT inputs are provided. A negative phase

sequence current input and a THD current input are also provided.
The CT inputs are rated at 5A and function down to 50 mA. For optimum
accuracy in the usable range, it is recommended to use 5 A secondary CTs with
PowerSense (not 1A secondary CTs). Take care to avoid secondary currents
greater than 7 Arms, as this will cause damage.
CT ratio and gain inputs are provided, to allow field configuration of the CT
scaling. The CT ratio will scale all three CT inputs by the same ratio. There is a
separate gain input provided for each CT input (3 for the generator and 3 for the
mains) that is provided to allow for compensation of current transformer turns
ratio inaccuracies.
The CT inputs have adjustable software filters. All CT inputs are updated every 3
cycles. With an input of 60 Hz, this equates to 50 ms.
The hardware does not require three phases for current calculations, the
application can configure the module for single phase, and all functionality will be
modified accordingly. The single phase input that must be provided is the A
phase. The application can also configure the module for a “Y” or “delta” line
configuration, and the calculations will compensate appropriately. If the physical
connections are to a wye connected generator or load, the input to PowerSense
should also be wye connected (line-to-neutral). If the physical connections are to
a Delta connected generator or load (no neutral present), the input to
PowerSense should also be Delta connected (line-to-line). ). The “Y” or “delta”
configuration applies to the entire set of PT and CTs, it is not possible to
configure the PTs for “Y”, and the CTs for “delta”, or vice versa. However, the
configuration (line type and single or three-phase) may differ between PT/CT 1
and PT/CT 2 (gen and mains in most systems).
WARNING—High Voltage
Configuration Notes
• Refer to Figures 6-9 and 6-10 for CT wiring.
• When using only one CT, rather than 3, the CT must be phase A, and the
application software must configure the PT/CT block for “single phase” operation.
• The application software must configure the PT/CT block for the correct
system frequency 50 Hz, or 60 Hz, as well as for the correct rotation,
clockwise or counterclockwise.
• See the GAP help, for information on application software configuration variables.
• The terminal block screws should be torqued to 8–10 lb-in (0.9–1.1 Nxm).
• Marine Type Approval installations require cabling to be shielded if it leaves
the cabinet. CT wires may be shielded as a group and the shield may be
conduit or similar.

Speed Bias Output

The Speed Bias output is configurable for 4–20 mA with a full scale range of 0–
24 mA, or as a ±3 V, 0–5 V, or PWM voltage output. When used as a PWM
output, the PWM frequency is 500 Hz. Configuring the output requires wiring and
application software configuration. This output is isolated from the rest of the
control system, to prevent ground loops when connecting the PowerSense board
to other controls.
Configuration Notes
• Refer to Figures 6-11 and 6-12 for Speed Bias Output wiring. Wires must be
shielded.
• The Speed Bias output must be configured for the correct type, 4–20 mA or
the voltage type in the application software.
• See the specifications section for the maximum output load.
• The output does not contain fault detection. If it is necessary to detect
failures, then the device that is driven by the analog output, for example an
actuator driver, must contain reference failure detection.
• The output cannot be used as a voltage output and a current output at the
same time.

The Voltage Bias output is configurable for 4 - 20 mA with a full scale range of 0 -
24 mA, or as a ±1, ±3V, or ±9V voltage output. Configuring the output requires
wiring and application software configuration. This output is isolated from the rest
of the control system to prevent ground loops when connecting the PowerSense
board to other controls. The voltage outputs are configured in the software,
therefore the ±9V output has about 3 times better accuracy and resolution than
the ±3V output, which has about 3 times better accuracy and resolution than the
±1V output.
Configuration Notes

LON Channel
The PowerSense board has one LON channel.
Figure 6-15. Wiring Example–LON Interface to the PowerSense Board
Configuration Notes
• Refer to Figure 6-15 for LON channel wiring. Wire must be shielded.
• The LON network must be terminated with load terminating resistors.
• The LON channel is DSLC™/MSLC and EGCP-3 compatible. It may only be
used with specified Woodward equipment.
Fault Detection (Board Hardware)

Each PowerSense board has a red fault LED that is turned on when the system
is reset. During initialization of a board, which occurs after every CPU reset, the
CPU turns the Fault LED on. The CPU then tests the board using diagnostic
routines built into the software. If the diagnostic test is not passed, the LED
remains on or blinks. Table 6-1 below explains what a blinking LED indicates.
The LED will blink the appropriate number of times, rest for one second, then
blink again in repetition. If the test is successful, the LED goes off. If the fault
LED on a board is illuminated after the diagnostics and initialization have been
completed, the PowerSense board may be faulty or may have the address DIP
switches configured incorrectly. The DIP switch setting must match the module
address set in the GAP application program. It cannot be the same address used
by any other card on the PC/104 bus. These are factory set at the time the
system is built.

Fault Detection (I/O)—In addition to detecting board hardware faults, the
application program may detect I/O faults, by comparing values against each
other at specific operating points. For example, if phases A and C are reading
correctly, and phase B is significantly different, the application could annunciate a
problem with phase B.
Microcontroller Faults—The system monitors a software watchdog, a hardware

watchdog, and a software watchdog on the PC/104 bus communications. All
outputs are shutdown in the event of a microcontroller fault or watchdog
detection.
PT Inputs
If a PT input is not functioning properly, verify the following:
• Measure the voltage and frequency on the terminal block, to ensure that
they are correct.
• Check the wiring. Look for a loose connection at the terminal blocks and for
• Check the PT range configuration in the application software, to ensure that
it corresponds to the rated voltage at the input.
• Check the system frequency configuration in the application software, to
ensure that 50Hz or 60 Hz is selected, as appropriate.
• Check the “3 phase” configuration in the application software. In single
phase mode, phases B and C will be set to 0.
• Check the A phase signal. B and C phase PTs will not read correctly without
the A phase PT. If the A phase frequency is unstable, B and C readings will
be unstable.
• Verify the settings to the PT/CT block in the application software.
• Verify the settings for wye or delta (L-N or L-L) match the actual wiring
• Verify proper grounding. Incorrect grounding practices may cause
inaccurate voltage readings.
CT Inputs
If a CT input is not functioning properly, verify the following:
• Measure the current and frequency on the terminal block, to ensure that
they are correct.
• Check the wiring. If the input is reading 0, look for a shorted connection at
the terminal blocks and for misconnected cables.
• Check the system frequency configuration in the application software, to
ensure that 50Hz or 60 Hz is selected, as appropriate.
• Check the “3 phase” configuration in the application software, in single
phase mode phases B and C will be set to 0.
• Check the A phase PT signal, CT phases A, B, and C will not read correctly
without the A phase PT. If the A phase PT frequency is unstable the CT
readings will be unstable.
• Verify the settings to the PT/CT block, in the application software.
• Verify the settings for wye or delta (L-N or L-L) match the actual wiring
• If the CT common is not grounded, try grounding it to eliminate offsets in the
readings. Be sure to ground it in the same location as the other system
grounds following good, accepted grounding practices.

12-Channel Relay Module
General Information
Figure 7-1. 12-Channel Relay Module
The Atlas system has 12 relay drivers on the power supply board. For customers
that do not wish to wire their own discrete relays, Woodward can provide an
integrated 12-channel relay module with cable harness that is certified for use in
ordinary, hazardous, and marine locations.
The module is DIN rail mounted. Approximate dimensions are 254 mm long, 76
mm wide, and 64 mm tall (10 inches long, 3 inches wide, and 2.5 inches tall).
• Relay Module, Item Number 5441-699

• Cable, Item Number 5417-747
This equipment has been evaluated as EEx nC IIC T3 equipment under DEMKO
Certificate No. 03 ATEX 0328750 U. Each device is suitable for use in Zone 2
explosive atmospheres. Device must be installed in a minimum IP54 enclosure
as defined in IEC60529 and EN60529. This certification applies only to products
bearing the DEMKO identification and the marking:
II 3G.
Woodward 91
Relay Information
Each relay has one set of normally open contacts and one set of normally closed
contacts. The relay contact ratings are:
5 A at 28 Vdc resistive
0.1 A at 125 Vdc resistive
3 A at 120 Vac resistive
2 A at 120 Vac inductive
0.241 hp—120 Vac motor
0.112 hp—28 Vdc motor
0.5 A at 120 Vac tungsten
Shielding
There is a terminal on the module labeled “SHLD”. A wire should be connected
between this terminal and a good local system ground. Alternatively, a ground
wire can be crimped to the bare shield wire at the Atlas end of the cable and then
tied to the chassis ground stud of the Atlas. If this shield wire is not used at the
Atlas end of the cable, it should be trimmed back to the insulation jacket of the
cable.
Board Status Lights

The module is equipped with twelve yellow LEDs to indicate when each relay has
been energized, and one green LED to indicate that there is external power to
the module. For proper operation, the green LED must be lit any time the Atlas
system is being used.
Wiring
The relay module requires an external 18 to 32 Vdc power supply and a wiring
harness. One end of this cable has been stripped back several inches, and
individual wires are labeled with the terminal numbers of the appropriate
terminals used on the Atlas power supply board. Refer to the following plant
wiring diagram and the power supply chapter of this manual for more details.

DLE Serial Communication Board
General Information
The Atlas system can be provided with a DLE serial communications board. The
DLE board has six ports—three RS-422 ports for communication with Honeywell
pressure transducer modules, and three RS-485 ports for use with Woodward LQ
series and EM series drivers. All ports are special purpose and are not designed
for general communication functions.
Refer to manuals 85555 (Smart Pressure Transducer) and 26159 (EM/LQ Digital
Driver) for more information about the transducer and driver modules used with
the board.
For proper operation the end user will need a properly shielded cable, network
terminations, and a program that has been written for their application.

Shielding
Shielded cable is required between the Atlas-II™ and any other devices.
Unshielded cables and improperly shielded cables will very likely lead to
communication problems and unreliable control operation.
The shield must always be AC-coupled (connected through a capacitor) at one

end and connected directly to earth on the opposite end for proper operation.
The DLE board has been constructed so that the Shield/Drain connection can be
either AC-coupled or directly connected to the Atlas chassis ground which must
be tied to earth. Devices connected to the opposite end of the cable must provide
for the opposite shield connection. For instance, if the AC-coupled connection is
used on the DLE, the other end of the shield must be connected directly to earth.
Board Status Lights

The board is equipped with two LEDs labeled H and D to provide feedback from
the board. The LED labeled H indicates operation of the Honeywell portion of the
board, and LED labeled D indicates operation of the driver side of the board.
During normal operation, the LEDs will light as soon as power is applied and will
eventually turn off as the application starts running. This can take up to four
minutes, depending upon the size of the application. If the board fails its own self
test or failures are detected during normal operation, the LEDs will flash in
particular coded patterns which will repeat periodically.

Isolators must be used if the network is NOT a local, relatively short (>30 m)
network shields connected to the same reference by low impedance galvanic
connections. Isolators must be placed between sections of the network further
than 30 m apart. Isolators must provide galvanic isolation to the signals, shield,
and reference connections. This prevents potentially substantial equalizing
currents from flowing in the cable shields and reference signal wires. Equalizing
currents can (and will) disrupt communications or in extreme cases cause
equipment damage. (All though isolated, cable shields should be connected
across the isolator via an AC connection (capacitor) to maintain RF shielding
effectiveness. Typically 0.001 to 0.1 µF capacitors rated at 500 – 2000 V, may be
used depending on the application and these capacitors are often built into the
isolator.)
Profibus Slave Hardware

The Atlas-II control system can control Profibus slave modules from many
different manufacturers. With the exception of Woodward-manufactured devices,
Woodward makes no expressed or implied statement of suitability of these
devices. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure EMC compliance of their system,
if necessary, by using distributed modules that are CE compliant. The following
Profibus slave hardware has been tested with the Atlas-II control to confirm
functionality only.

The Atlas-II control is configured to communicate with a Profibus network by
performing the following steps:
1. Verify that the Atlas contains a Profibus module.

2. Determine slave and I/O modules to be used.
3. Determine order of I/O modules.
4. Obtain GSD file(s).
5. Create Profibus Configuration using the Profibus Configuration Tool.
6. Review the Profibus slave manuals and understand the hardware
addressing.
7. Create GAP application that reads and writes to the Profibus I/O.
8. Transfer Configuration files and GAP application to Atlas-II control.
9. Start GAP application.
Profibus Software Configuration (Configuration)

The Profibus network is configured using a Profibus Configuration Tool provided
on CD-ROM with the Atlas-II control (ApplicomIO 2.2 Console). This tool
supports defining the Atlas-II Profibus board as a master or slave device. For
master operation, the slave devices are defined and configured by importing their
GSD files and assigning network addresses. Once the Profibus I/O configuration
is completed, it must be downloaded to the Atlas-II control and stored with the
GAP application.

Service Options
Product Service Options

The following factory options are available for servicing Woodward equipment,
based on the standard Woodward Product and Service Warranty (5-01-1205)
that is in effect at the time the product is purchased from Woodward or the
service is performed:
• Replacement/Exchange (24-hour service)
• Flat Rate Repair
• Flat Rate Remanufacture
If you are experiencing problems with installation or unsatisfactory performance

of an installed system, the following options are available:
• Consult the troubleshooting guide in the manual.
• Contact Woodward technical assistance (see “How to Contact Woodward”
later in this chapter) and discuss your problem. In most cases, your problem
can be resolved over the phone. If not, you can select which course of
action you wish to pursue based on the available services listed in this
section.
Replacement/Exchange
Replacement/Exchange is a premium program designed for the user who is in
need of immediate service. It allows you to request and receive a like-new
replacement unit in minimum time (usually within 24 hours of the request),
providing a suitable unit is available at the time of the request, thereby minimizing
costly downtime. This is also a flat rate structured program and includes the full
standard Woodward product warranty (Woodward Product and Service Warranty
5-01-1205).
This option allows you to call in the event of an unexpected outage, or in

advance of a scheduled outage, to request a replacement control unit. If the unit
is available at the time of the call, it can usually be shipped out within 24 hours.
You replace your field control unit with the like-new replacement and return the
field unit to the Woodward facility as explained below (see “Returning Equipment
for Repair” later in this chapter).
Charges for the Replacement/Exchange service are based on a flat rate plus
shipping expenses. You are invoiced the flat rate replacement/exchange charge
plus a core charge at the time the replacement unit is shipped. If the core (field
unit) is returned to Woodward within 60 days, Woodward will issue a credit for
the core charge. [The core charge is the average difference between the flat rate
replacement/exchange charge and the current list price of a new unit.]
Return Shipment Authorization Label. To ensure prompt receipt of the core,

and avoid additional charges, the package must be properly marked. A return
authorization label is included with every Replacement/Exchange unit that leaves
Woodward. The core should be repackaged and the return authorization label
affixed to the outside of the package. Without the authorization label, receipt of
the returned core could be delayed and cause additional charges to be applied.
Woodward 105
Flat Rate Repair

Flat Rate Repair is available for the majority of standard products in the field.
This program offers you repair service for your products with the advantage of
knowing in advance what the cost will be. All repair work carries the standard
Woodward service warranty (Woodward Product and Service Warranty
5-01-1205) on replaced parts and labor.
Flat Rate Remanufacture

Flat Rate Remanufacture is very similar to the Flat Rate Repair option with the
exception that the unit will be returned to you in “like-new” condition and carry
with it the full standard Woodward product warranty (Woodward Product and
Service Warranty 5-01-1205). This option is applicable to mechanical products
only.
Returning Equipment for Repair

If a control (or any part of an electronic control) is to be returned to Woodward for
repair, please contact Woodward in advance to obtain a Return Authorization
Number. When shipping the item(s), attach a tag with the following information:
• Name and location where the control is installed
• Name and phone number of contact person
• Complete Woodward part number(s) and serial number(s)
• Description of the problem
• Instructions describing the desired type of repair
To prevent damage to electronic components caused by improper handling,
read and observe the precautions in Woodward manual 82715, Guide for
Handling and Protection of Electronic Controls, Printed Circuit Boards, and
Modules.
Packing a Control
Use the following materials when returning a complete control:
• Protective caps on any connectors
• Antistatic protective bags on all electronic modules
• Packing materials that will not damage the surface of the unit
• At least 100 mm (4 inches) of tightly packed, industry-approved packing
material
• A packing carton with double walls
• A strong tape around the outside of the carton for increased strength
