ABB PM866K01 3BSE050198R1 Central Processing Unit
The following paragraphs describe unique Harmony Process Portal features. For thoserequiring more details regarding general Process Portal functionality, please refer to the
Industrial IT System 800xA Operations Overview document (#3BSE 034823).
Preserving Harmony Tag Configuration. The Harmony Composer engineering
tool provides the basis for the 800xA Process Portal configuration. A simple importing
process from Composer sets up the Harmony tag configuration data and standard
Harmony informational views within Process Portal.
Preserving Harmony Process Graphics.ABBprovides options for existing
Harmony process graphics. A service is provided to convert existing graphics for
those users who need to maintain current operator process visuals and navigation.
Optionally, ABB can refresh current visuals with the latest graphics technology thereby
providing operators with an enhanced view of the process.
Harmony Standard Informational Views. The Harmony tag importing process
automatically creates control faceplates, trend displays, block details, module status,
operating parameters, and other Harmony specific, standard informational aspect
views (Figure 11).

Faceplates. Faceplates include several views; from normal for standard control
to point display view for detailed control. Harmony Point Displays (Figure 12)
are expanded faceplates that include trend elements that display the trace of the
process value or state. Point displays occupy the extended slot of the faceplate
control of those tag types. These faceplates are automatically configured during the
data conversion process. Each of the Harmony tag types listed below (unless noted)
has an associated faceplate and extended point display.

Block Details. The Block Details aspect (Figure 13) inspects function blocks within
a selected controller. Grouped within a series of tabs, the Block Details aspect
displays the block's specifications with tuning options, its outputs, and additional
related function code information. Tabs include:
.Specifications- Specification data (i.e. references to another function block
output, tunable / non-tunable parameters)
.Outputs - Current output value(s) of the FC block
Description - Description of the FC
Address - Enter a new block address
·NextBlock -Jump to the next block address in the module
Module Details. The Module Details aspect (Figure 14) provides detailed
information about the operational status of a selected Harmony module. Detailed
information is available through the following navigation tabs:
General tab displays the Type, Revision(firmware), Description, Mode, Collection
Time, and Status Bytes
.Status tab displays a list of status error messages that apply to the selected module
at the time of the last scan
.Problems tab displays a list of problem report messages that apply to the selected
module at the time of the last scan
Operating Parameters. The Operating Parameters aspect allows interaction with
the Harmony Tag including examination of key parameters, red tagging,inhibiting,
and value substitution (Figure 15). Tables 1 and 2 summarize the operating
parameters included within the General and Harmony Tabs respectively. An
important feature of the operating parameters aspect is the Manual Inhibit option of
the General tab. This is used to disable event reporting for the tag in the same way
