DESCRIPTION:

IS420UCSBH4A is a UCSB Controller Module manufactured by General Electric as part of the Mark VIe Series

used in gas turbine control systems with a 1066 MHz Intel EP80579 microprocessor. The application code is executed

by standalone computers called UCSB controllers. Through onboard 1/0 network (IONet) interfaces, the controller

mounts in a panel and communicates with the I/O packs. Only Mark controls I/O modules and controllers are

supported by the private, special-purpose Ethernet network known as IONet. The controller’s operating system (OS)

is QNX Neutrino, a real-time, multitasking OS developed for industrial applications requiring great speed and dependability. The

UCSB controller lacks any application I/O hosts, in contrast to conventional controllers that host application I/O on a backplane.

Additionally, each controller has access to all I/O networks, providing them with all input data.

If a controller is turned down for maintenance or repair, the hardware and software architecture ensures that no single point

of application input is lost. Functional safety loops are implemented to achieve SIL 2 and 3 capabilities using the Mark VIeS UCSBSIA

Safety controller and Safety 1/0 modules. Operators who are familiar with SIS applications employ Mark Vles Safety equipment to

lower risk in crucial safety functions. These particular control hardware and software have IEC 61508 certification and are specifically configured for work with safety controllers and distributed I/O modules.
