VE3008 DeltaV™ MQ Controller

Total control. The controller manages all control activities for the I/O interface channels. It also manages all communication
functions for the communications network. Time stamping, alarming, and trend objects are also managed within the
controller. The controller executes all control strategy with execution speeds up to every 100 ms.
Data protection. All online changes made to control parameters are automatically stored for later upload into the
engineering database. This way, the system always retains a complete record of all the data that has been changed online.
Cold restart. This feature provides automatic restart of the controller in case of a power failure. The restart is completely
autonomous because the entire control strategy is stored in NVM RAM of the controller for this purpose. Simply set the
restart state of the controller to current conditions.

Advanced operations. The MQ Controller is equipped to handle the DeltaV Batch option, as well as advanced control functions.
You can also use advanced control function such as Neural and Model Predictive Control on the MQ controller.
Data pass-through. The controller is equipped with the ability to pass smart HART® information from field devices to any
workstation node in the control network. This means you can take advantage of applications, such as Asset Management
Solutions AMS Device Manager, that enable you to remotely manage the HART information contained in your HART or
FOUNDATION Fieldbus equipped devices.
Prepares you for the future. As your system grows, you can expand your software license to increase the number of
device signal tags (DSTs) allocated to the DeltaV controller. Begin with 50 and expand to 750 DSTs. Control strategy
complexity and control module scan rates determine overall controller performance and application size. A redundant
controller may be added to back up an MQ Controller online.
The standby controller comes online automatically, with a bumpless transition. For more information, refer to the I/O
Redundancy product data sheet.
