TXP Process Control System<br />

8<br />

TXP Process Control System<br />

On-Site Hardware/<br />

Software Configuration<br />

and Maintenance<br />

TXP-HW/SW<br />

3 weeks - price upon request<br />

Maximum of 10 students<br />

This course is usually scheduled on site.<br />

Prerequisites<br />

Electrical engineer, electronics<br />

technician, or competent individual<br />

with electronics background.<br />

Description<br />

This course will teach the<br />

participants the functions of an<br />

operating and monitoring system<br />

and how to operate it as a human<br />

machine interface (HMI). It will<br />

cover all tasks associated with<br />

process management and information.<br />

It will begin by covering<br />

the theory and operation of TXP<br />

hardware components and how<br />

they interact. Students will learn<br />

a practical approach to diagnosing<br />

and isolating faults to the card<br />

level using the various TXP<br />

tools, and will be required to<br />

troubleshoot actual hardware and<br />

software problems. Instruction on<br />

standard TXP hardware platforms<br />

will include hands-on labs covering<br />

their configuring and testing.<br />

This course will also emphasize<br />

the tasks performed by most<br />

instrument or computer technicians<br />

to isolate software problems<br />

and make system changes. This<br />

course will describe the general<br />

use and functions of the various<br />

components in the TXP system.<br />

Emphasis will be placed on the<br />

Engineering Station for the<br />

modification of logic diagrams,<br />

graphics for analog, and digital<br />

control. This course is based on<br />

TXP version 7 level software and<br />

hardware.<br />

Objectives<br />

Upon successful completion of this course, the student<br />

has been trained to:<br />

• Explain the operation of the TXP plant bus and<br />

terminal bus<br />

• Isolate card failures and configure a replacement<br />

card<br />

• Make all necessary settings to standard<br />

communications cards<br />

• Perform required preventive maintenance<br />

• Distinguish between hardware and software<br />

problems<br />

• Troubleshoot a TXP system using a logical approach<br />

• Create logic diagrams for an actual process model<br />

• Create graphics for same process model<br />

• Modify logic diagrams<br />

• Modify graphics<br />

• Compile and download configured software<br />
