Common Platform for Detector and Cryogenic Systems

07.25.19 Trevor Nichols | Ignition for Cryogenic Process Controls 3

  • Lux Zeplin (LZ) Dark Matter Experiment
  • Located at SURF – same mine as LBNF/DUNE
  • Large scale, ~1200 I/O for cryogenics
  • LBNF Cryogenics estimated at ~3800 I/O for CUC and Detector 1
  • Uses Ignition for detector and cryogenic systems

What is Ignition?

07.25.19 Trevor Nichols | Ignition for Cryogenic Process Controls 4

  • Supervisory Control and Data

Acquisition (SCADA) System

  • Core Modules:
  • Human Machine Interface (HMI)
  • Alarm Management
  • Historical Data Collection
  • PLC Drivers
  • OPC UA
  • Modbus, Serial Comms
  • Enterprise Administration

Modular Architecture Only pay for features you need

Ignition Relevant Features

07.25.19 Trevor Nichols | Ignition for Cryogenic Process Controls 5

  • Web-based Platform
  • Access from anywhere
  • Runs on everything
  • Cross Platform (Java)
  • Server Centric
  • Licensing
  • License per server
  • Unlimited devices and tags
  • Unlimited clients (users)
  • Fully functional free trial
  • Connectivity
  • OPC UA, OPC DA, Modbus
  • Siemens PLC driver
  • Databases (MySQL, MariaDB,

PostgreSQL, Oracle, etc.)

  • Redundancy
  • Modular Architecture
  • Easy to add or remove features
  • Core modules for common features

(i.e. HMI, alarms, historian)

  • 3rd party and user-developed modules

supported

  • Industry Best Practices
  • Follow international standards (ISA) for

HMI and Alarm Management

  • Mobile-Responsive HMI
  • Web-based (no application to install)
  • Adapts to fit desktop and mobile devices
  • Symbols for High Performance HMI

Analog Indicator Sparkline ISA Symbols

GE Digital Proficy iFIX

  • Standalone product
  • Current Fermilab

HMI/SCADA for cryo controls

  • At end of life?
  • Requires 3rd party

OPC server (i.e. Kepware) and auto-dialer (i.e. WIN-911) Siemens Operator System

  • Part of PCS7
  • Easy integration

with Siemens PLCs

  • Compatibility with

non-Siemens?

  • Mature / proven
  • No auto-dialer

(requires 3rd party software) Inductive Automation Ignition

  • Standalone product
  • High compatibility

with many PLCs

  • Modern design
  • Built-in OPC server
  • Auto-dialer add-on
  • Used on LZ

experiment (also at SURF)

Ignition vs. iFIX Specific Examples

07.25.19 Trevor Nichols | Ignition for Cryogenic Process Controls 10

  • User Defined Type (UDT) Support
  • High Performance HMI and ISA symbols

Example UDT Definition in Siemens PLC Program

Maps to UDT in Ignition tag database – easy! Each UDT sub-element needs its own tag in the iFIX database – time consuming HP HMI symbols and standard ISA symbols part of Ignition symbol library In iFIX, equivalent symbols must be made from basic shapes and animated individually
