SPEEDTRONIC Mark VI Hardware Description
Mark VI configuration
Mark VI configuration -TCP
R,S,T modules and the Protection modules are interconnected
PDM –Power Distribution Module
The Power Distribution Module provides different voltages –125 Vdc, 115 Vac (and 230 Vac in certain applications)
for all the Control Modules, Protection Modules and terminal boards
PDM –Power Distribution Module
VPRO rack –Protection Modules
VPRO rack –IONET connection
R/S/T rack composition
Rack Power Supply
Rack Power Supply Switch
Rack Power Supply –PDM connections
Rack Power Supply –Rack connections
Rack Jumper –for rack identification
VCMI and UCVE cards
VCMI card (IONET) explanation
• Communication interface management for internal IONET network
• Provides communication between UCVE cards, I/O cards and VPRO cards
• Provides the base of the modular redundant philosophy, that keeps the turbine operating with only two main
processors as well
• Allows maintenance/repair actions on the control rack without the need of stopping the turbine
• Importance of the 50 ohms end-line termination resistances
VCMI IONET connections
UCVE card explanation
• Main control processor card
• Executes the application code and the turbine logic sequence
• Ethernet connector provides external UDH(unit data highway) network interface for the HMI
• COM1 serial port (RS232) for initial ethernet address confoguration
• COM2 serial port (RS232) for MODBUS communication
UCVE card explanation
I/O cards explanation
• Processing the input signals from the terminal boards
• Can be TMR or Simplex depending on the processed signals
• Direct cable connection with the terminal boards
• Provides the detected values for the system through the internal IONET network
• LEDs are showing the card status

Mark VI I/O cards and terminal boards:
• VPRO I/O card:
TPRO: turbine protection speed detection
TREG: emergency trip pushbuttons
• VTUR I/O card:
TTUR: turbine regular speed detection
TRPG: flame detection and primary trip relays
• VVIB I/O card:
TVIB: seismic vibration
• VSVO I/O card:
TSVO: servovalve output signals and LVDT feedback
• VAIC I/O card:
TBAI: 4..20 mA or 0..10 V analog inputs and outputs
• VCRC I/O card:
TBCI: contact (logic) input signals
TRLY: contact or solenoid (logic) output signals
• VTCC I/O card:
TBTC: thermocouple temperature input signals
• VRTD I/O card:
TRTD: RTD temperature input signal
• Logic signal terminal boards are located in the HIOS section of the UCP
• Analog signal terminal boards are located in the LIOS section of the UCP
UCP HIOS section –digital boards
UCP LIOS section –analog boards
Terminal boards screw connections
Mark VI I/O cards
Contact inputs / TBCI board:
• Powered by 125 Vdc voltage to detect circuit continuity
• Inversion mask can be applied to each contact inputs on the VCRC I/O card, to normalize the data value and
simplify the understanding of the control logic
Contact inputs (TMR) / TBCI board:
Contact inputs (Simplex) / TBCI board:
Contact outputs / TRLY board:
• Dedicated magnetic relay for each output
• Can be NO or NC depending on the terminals used
• For solenoid signals 110 Vdc voltage is switched according to the output logic status
• For solenoid usage jumper must be inserted to each output channel
Contact outputs / TRLY board:
Analog inputs/outputs / TBAI board:
Analog inputs can monitor 4..20 mA loops (250 ohms), which can be configured as self-powered or can be powered
from theMark VI .
Analog outputs can be configured as 4..20 mA output or as 0..200 mA output
