Outline Mission Statement Brief History Global Architecture Main Challenges Standards Instrumentation & Control Integrated Product Team CODAC Core Systems Plant System I&C Identification Interfaces Infrastructure Interlock and Safety Implementation Plan

Goal for ITER Instrumentation & Control System Mission Statement Ensure all ITER Plant Systems Instrumentation & Control are designed, implemented and integrated such that ITER can be operated as a fully integrated and automated system. Successful integration = higher reliability Economy of scale Minimize operator human errors Few required operators Minimize required maintenance crew Reuse plant system I&C design recipes Only standard cables entering control room Only standard equipment in control room One control room

ITER is not anymore a paper project Brief History CODAC conceptual design developed by Jo Lister, with support from the fusion community, in 2006 and 2007 This conceptual design was reviewed in Nov 2007 A CODAC group started to form at ITER Organization in 2007-2008 ITER is not anymore a paper project It is a real project

Conceptual Architecture I&C structure Segregation of ITER I&C into 3 vertical tiers and 2 horizontal layers Control Control and monitor all ITER Plant Systems Interlock Protect the investment Independent network and I&C Safety Protects personnel, and environment Two train systems

Scope and Definitions ITER Instrumentation & Control System All hardware and software required to operate the ITER machine. Comprises Plant System I&C and Central I&C Systems. Central I&C Systems All hardware and software required to coordinate and orchestrate all Plant Systems I&C and provide the human machine interface. Comprise CODAC System, Central Interlock System and Central Safety System. Plant Systems I&C All hardware and software required to control a Plant System stand-alone and autonomously.

Human Machine Interface Central Interlock System Central Safety CODAC Plant Systems I&C IN FUND by WBS 4.5, 4.6 and 4.8 Actuators and sensors Human Machine Interface Like all large projects I&C has low priority in the early phase Project focus is on costly items (mechanics) There are no I&C specifications and no one is working on them Responsibility boundaries are not clear nor accepted Plant System Host Networks interface Black Hole IN KIND by WBS 1.*, 2.*, 3.*, 4.*, 5.*, 6,* 161 Plant Systems I&C I&C Standards (Plant Control Design Handbook)

Our main challenge is the Black Hole. What are we doing about it ? Standardization (Plant Control Design Handbook) Engaging parties in defining standards and prototyping Instrumentation & Control Integrated Product Team Plant System I&C identifications (plant profile database) Interface definitions (S-ICD, IS, interviews) Early delivery of CODAC Core System

Objectives of Plant Control Design Handbook The Plant Control Design Handbook (PCDH) defines methodology, standards, specifications and interfaces applicable to all ITER Plant Systems Instrumentation & Control (I&C) I&C standards are essential for ITER to Integrate all Plant Systems into one integrated control system Maintain all Plant Systems after delivery acceptance Contain cost by economy of scale (spare parts, expertise) The PCDH is applicable to all Procurement Arrangements ITER Organization (IO) Develop Support Maintain Enforce these standards Living document Latest release May 2009 Publicly available http://www.iter.org/org/team/chd/cid/codac/Pages/default.aspx

Plant System I&C Life Cycle Well defined checkpoints Well defined deliverables Chapter 3, PCDH v 4.1

February 1, 2009 “The CODAC group announces that EPICS will be used as the baseline for the software environment for the ITER control system within the scope of PCDH” Contracts and Tasks 2008-2009 Three independent contracts to establish CODAC software environment May 7, 2009 “ITER Plant Systems Instrumentation & Control shall use Siemens Simatic S7 product line of Programmable Logical Controllers for industrial control and SIL-3 applications” Programmable Logic Controller (slow control) selection process Cubicle selection process Two independent tasks to explore existing EPICS client applications Detail design and production of Plant System Host and prototype Mini-CODAC Support functional analysis and interface definitions for CIS Support preparation of technical specs for next wave of contracts Build a Central Safety System (CSS) simulator Two contracts to prototype High Performance Networks Three contracts to survey and prototype Fast Controllers Two contracts to prototype CODAC High Level Applications

Distribution of contracts and tasks among parties Strategy: Engage and involve all parties in order to maximize acceptance of standards

Plant System I&C identification A Plant System I&C has one and only one Plant System Host

Interface definition Identify plant systems I&C CODAC, CIS and CSS interfaces to everyone (almost) We are starting to identify the interfaces to Plant System I&C Identify plant systems I&C Develop S-ICD and interface sheets Maintain information in plant system I&C profile database

Instrumentation & Control Integrated Product Team IO Management requests CODAC & IT Division to create an Integrated Product Team for Instrumentation & Control. The objective is to improve communication and collaboration between the I&C stakeholders CODAC Group Plant System Responsible Officers Domestic Agencies involved in Procurement Arrangements Industries implementing Plant Systems The Instrumentation & Control IPT provides an excellent opportunity to streamline the I&C development methodology and to promote PCDH. A proposal was presented to ITER governing body on March 9 and Kick-off meeting held on May 15.

Instrumentation & Control IPT IPT SCOPE 1 Produce I&C specifications Get to a standard Built to Print Design 2 Get to a standard Factory Acceptance Tests 3 Get to a standard Site Acceptance Tests 4

Instrumentation & Control IPT 27 PBS packages bundled in 10 Plant System Groups totaling 161 Plant Systems  Staged implementation! What is most urgent?

Instrumentation & Control IPT Coordination between Plant Systems I&C Coordination between DA and IO I&C STANDARDS (PCDH) Development lifecycle with deliverables Components (hardware and software) Interfaces Coordination between Plant System I&C and Industry Coordination between Plant System I&C and Process

CODAC Core Systems CODAC Core Systems is a well defined product to be exported to all Plant System I&C developers CODAC Core Systems comprise the hardware and software required to develop, interface and test plant systems I&C. The hardware platforms are Plant System Host (PSH) and Mini-CODAC. The software comprises communication middleware, plant system self description schemas and tools and SCADA functionalities; logging, alarming, error handling, reporting, configuration, database and HMI. CODAC Core Systems will be released on a yearly bases with the first release planned for February 2010.

CODAC Core Systems Strategy: Promote use of CODAC Core Systems as early as possible to create large user community and acceptance of standards Mini-CODAC Plant System Host (PSH) Alarm Handling (AH) Error & Trace Logging (EL) Live Database (LD) Data Archiving (DA) Data Retrieval (DR) Testing Tools (TT) Communication Middleware (CM) Generic Plant System Software (PS) Visualization Builder (VB) Plant System self description (SD) Strategy: Discourage use of private SCADA system below PSH for ease of integration
