System Description 2.3 System Design
The MCS 2200 provides the operator with an enhanced overview and superior operating facilities:
• Data-log functions
• Report functions based on data-log material
• Report, trend, and screenshot print functions
A track ball or standard PC mouse is used as an interactive pointing device during SOD 2200 operation.
2.3 System Design
The MCS 2200 is a modular system. Basic hardware and software components are assembled in order
to suit specific requirements of the actual application (see Figure 2-3). This approach to system design
guarantees the best cost/performance ratio and makes the MCS 2200 suitable for a wide range of appli-
cations.
The MCS 2200 comprises flexible Standard Function Blocks for manual and/or automatic control of
machinery components such as valves, motor starter pumps, air compressors, and diesel engines. By
use of closed loop controllers, the MCS 2200 monitors and controls important process parameters, e.g.
temperature and pressure values, liquid levels, and liquid flows.
Standard Function Blocks are gathered in Control Groups and the Control Overview Picture provides the
basic control and monitoring information. The number and type of Control Groups depend on the system
requirements of the actual installation.
Additionally, the MCS 2200 provides Control Group specific information by use of individual control
pictures for each control group.

7.7 Data Collection and Data Logging
Analog and binary parameters can be logged on the SOD 2200 hard-disk for later data analysis.
By default, all changes of pre-determined parameter and value conditions are logged and stored for a
period of 24 hours (max. 96 hours).
Compressed one-minute mean-values (optional min., max., total, actual value, or number of events) are
logged and stored for a period of 30 days.
The SOD 2200 offers different data analysis facilities, such as timed reports, trend display, and data
export.
7.8 Reports
The SOD 2200 provides the following standard reports:

• Daily reports
• Monthly reports
• Yearly reports
Reports are based on compressed logging data. In order to generate a daily report, the compressed one
minute data is further compressed to receive values for each hour.
Reports can be divided into detailed reports and overview (compressed) reports.
Detailed reports display both the 60 values per hour and the total daily values. Overview reports display
only the total daily values.
The hourly values of the daily reports are further used for the generation of monthly reports, and the
monthly values are used for the creation of yearly reports.
Reports can be printed out automatically according to adjustable time schedules, or at an operator’s
request.
Other report types may be customized.
Data may also be exported in.DIF format for further analysis or reporting.
7.9 Trend Display
One to five graphs representing supervised parameters can be displayed in the same Trend Display.
Each graph has an individual color and measuring scale. The colors are used in order to differentiate
between IDs, measuring scales, trend curves, and digit values of the individual measurements.
815.000 011 / – (2006-09) 33

7.9 Trend Display System Description
By pointing out and selecting a specific area in the Trend Display, a zoom function can be activated.
Fig. 7-7 Trend Display with four curves.
Frequently used Trend Displays are directly accessible by selecting GRAPH in the command menu. The
operator can access all stored measurements from the log on the SOD 2200 hard disc.
Trend Displays covering the previous 24 hours (max. 96 hours) or parts of that period, are based upon
continuously logged data. Trend Displays covering values older than 24 hours (max. 96 hours) are based
on compressed values.
On an operator’s command, parameters which are not pre-defined for logging, can be displayed during
online data collection.
Trend Displays can be printed as screenshots, or saved on the SOD 2200 hard disc for subsequent
printing or analysis.
Trend Display data is accessible from the SOD 2200 and can be printed out in table form.

MCS 2200 - Monitoring and Control System 10 Customizing
System Description
10 Customizing
The MCS 2200 is a modular system and assembled by using basic hardware and software-modules. It
can be easily customized to suit the requirements of individual applications.
A computer aided Customizing Tool has been developed for MCS 2200 customizing processes. This tool
is a database program and can be operated on a standard PC.
MCS 2200 customization includes seven steps:
1) Control Function Identification

A list of all controlled Standard Function Blocks (e.g. valves, pumps) is assembled by use of the following
documents:
• MCS 2200 Standard Function Blocks Description
• Corresponding questionnaire
• Customer requirement specification
2) Input/Output Channel Calculation

The customer can now calculate the number of MCS 2200 input/output channels and alarm channels.
3) Database Set-Up
All necessary input/output channel information is then added to the database.
4) Channel Definition
The Customizing Tool defines if an input/output channel is only connected to the Alarm System, or
included in a Standard Function Block with other channels.
5) Control Group Set-Up

All Standard Function Blocks are gathered in Control Groups.
6) Control Group Definition

Special functions (e.g. high-level control sequence) are defined for each Control Group.
7) Control Group Layout Definition

The control and monitoring information layout displayed in the Standard Symbol Diagram has to be
designed for each Control Group.
If the Control System contains customer-specific graphical Mimic-Diagrams, the shipyard may provide the
lay-out for these pictures by use of GEM Draw (standard vector drawing program).
The remaining MCS 2200 customizing processes are carried out by SAM Electronics service personnel.
The finished Monitoring and Alarm System is equipped with control pictures for each Control Group. The
control pictures provide all necessary information. The number and type of Control Groups are defined
according to the actual application.
