Protecting the integrity and confidentialityof system data
The process and power industries face
intensifying cyber security risks. In order to
increase stability, security and robustness in its
solutions, ABB has established an independent
Device Security Assurance Center (DSAC) where
cyber security robustness is tested as part of
the product development process. The DSAC
test facility uses state-of-the-art open source,
commercial and proprietary robustness and
vulnerability analysis tools. All Symphony Plus
Ethernet-based devices - including HR Series
products such as the BRC410, ICI800, and IEB800
- are continually tested at the DSAC center in
different configurations and with an explicit
focus on operational performance. This ensures
that all Symphony Plus products are robust,
secure and of the highest quality.
Seamless upgrade path protects investments
True to ABB’s ‘Evolution without obsolescence’
commitment, HR Series products provide
backward compatibility to previous generation
Network 90, INFI 90, INFI 90 Open and Harmony
hardware and software, including support for
existing function code executions, custom user
programs, and all foreign device interfaces.
ABB's 'Evolution without obsolescence' ensures
the protection of installed investments while
providing the most predictable, cost-effective,
risk-averse, and seamless way of introducing new
functions and technology into a running plant.
Specifically, HR Series products:
• Replace previous generation rack products
on a form/fit/function basis
• Preserve installed I/O through simultaneous
connection to HR Series I/O, previous
generation rack and block I/O, SD Series I/O
and S800 I/O
• Use the same field-proven INFI 90 function
code algorithms as previous generation
controllers (ie, MFCxx and MFPxx controllers)
• Enhance existing Composer engineering tools
with device management capabilities
Further, HR Series and SD Series control
networks, INFI-Net and PN800 (INFI-Net over
Ethernet) respectively can be connected via a
self-configuring INFI-Net to Ethernet bridge
(IEB800 module). This allows for the easy
expansion of existing INFI-Net communication
networks with INFI-Net on Ethernet technology
and SD Series DIN rail mounted products.
Additionally, resident data from either network
is available for use in control applications or for
display in applications connected to the other

Robust – efficient – comprehensive
S+ Engineering is the comprehensive engineering
tool set for HR Series based systems. The
unified workbench offers all the necessary
functionality needed to engineer, configure,
administrate, secure, commission and maintain
every component in your Symphony Plus
Control System - from control and I/O, field
instrumentation and electrical devices to network
architecture, and operations, engineering, and
advanced system applications.
S+ Engineering’s seamless tool integration,
powerful workflow automation, multi-user and
remote access capabilities and comprehensive
bulk import/export functions improve overall
engineering efficiency. Integrated version
control, version comparison and rollback
framework offer progress tracking and
significantly reduce commissioning time. Using
intelligent bulk interfaces, S+ Engineering allows
for full control of engineering data consistency in
each phase of the project life cycle.
Secure user management
The simple and intuitive workbench interface
allows engineers to configure user information
for the Windows and Engineering databases. It
allows and secures the creation of user profiles
along with their roles and project access
permissions through Role Based Access Control
(RBAC). Audit trail functionality tracks and
archives user actions including system changes
made at any engineering workstation onto a
central database. These events can then be
archived in the system’s historian for long term
security audit purposes.
Integrated control engineering
S+ Engineering allows for easy reuse and upgrade
of previous generation Symphony, INFI 90 OPEN,
INFI 90, and Network 90 control applications.
In addition, the extensive reuse concept of S+
Engineering allows users to optimize plant
design with field-proven solutions based on
ABB’s in-depth experience in the power and water
industries.
S+ Engineering’s Automation Architect provides
for visual creation, editing, monitoring and
tuning of control logic. Rather than textually
programming strategies, the Automation
Architect represents pre-defined control
strategies as function blocks. By connecting
function blocks, users are able to easily specify
the signal flow of a control strategy and visually
define the control strategy. Monitoring and
tuning capabilities provide the ability to
troubleshoot and maintain an operational system
using the same information used to create the
system.
In addition to function blocks, S+ Engineering
supports batch or sequential programming via
the Batch Data Manager (BDM). BDM is a family
of engineering tools used for creating, editing,
managing, downloading, and debugging Batch
90, sequential, and user-defined function code
configurations.
