ABB XV9738a HEIE450617R programmable control card
Robust – efficient – comprehensiveS+ 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.
