INTRODUCTION
Section 1
1.1 PURPOSE
This publication defines the user-visible parameters that exist in the TotalPlant Solution
(TPS) System High-Performance Process Manager (HPM) and Network Interface Module
(NIM). It also provides listings of parameters that are applicable to various HPM point
types and algorithms.
For information on how the parameters are related to each other in terms of point types and
algorithms, refer to the High-Performance Process Manager Control Functions and
Algorithms manual in the Implementation/High-Performance Process Manager - 1 binder.
1.2 USE OF THIS PUBLICATION
Use this publication during configuration and during operation when detailed information
about HPM and NIM parameters is required.
For use in data point configuration, this publication provides definitions for each entry that
can be made on the High-Performance Process Manager Point Configuration Forms,
HP88-500 in the Implementation/High-Performance Process Manager - 1 binder, and in the
Parameter Entry Displays at the Universal Station.
For use in process operation, this publication provides information about the parameters
that appear for the process data points and HPM Box Data Point on the displays of
Universal Stations that are running with the Operator personality.
1.3 PARAMETER DEFINITION FORMAT
In this dictionary, the parameter definitions are listed in alphabetical order according to the
parameter name, which can be up to eight characters in length. Each parameter in this
publication is defined using the format shown below for the ALMOPT parameter, as an
example. The following paragraphs describe the entries that appear within each parameter
definition.
ALMOPT (DigIn)
Type: e($ALMOPT) Alarming Option—Defines the alarming option for a digital input point whose
Lock: Eng/PB DITYPE is Status.
Default: None
PtRes: APM
Range: 0-None (No alarms are to be detected)
1-Offnorml (Off Normal; alarm if current PV state is not the PVNORMAL state. PVNORMAL is
defined by the STATETXT(0) or STATETXT(1) descriptor, as configured by the user.)
2-ChngofSt (An alarm is generated when the digital input changes state in either direction).
Helpful Hint: ALMOPT configuration requires DITYPE = Status.
HPM Parameter Reference Dictionary 1-1 8/97

1.3
For many parameters, the function of the parameter is described using the long name of the
parameter (Alarm Option), followed by a description as shown in the above example. Some
parameters in this dictionary do not have functional descriptions following the long name;
this is because the long name of the parameter sufficiently describes the parameter function.
Type
This entry is the data type that defines how the parameter is viewed by the system. The
following data types are used in this dictionary:
• E:—Enumeration; the value for the parameter is chosen from a set of predefined
character strings. In the above example, the enumerations of $ALMOPT are None,
Offnorml.
• SD_ENM:—Self-Defining Enumeration; the value for the parameter is chosen from the
user-defined character strings.
• Ent.Prm—consists of a 1-16 character tag name, a period, and a 1-8 character

parameter name.
• Integer—a 16-bit whole number that does not contain a decimal point (+ 32767).
• Logical—a binary type with the values of ON (True) and OFF (False), or 0 (Off) and 1
(On).
• NaN—although not a data type, is used to represent "Not A Number" and is stored in
IEEE format.
• Prm_Id—1-8 character parameter name.
• Real—a 32-bit floating-point number in IEEE format.
• String_L—a character string of maximum length = L. Same as Ascii_L.
• Time—The time of day in one of the following formats: DDD HH:MM:SS for
durations, and DDMMYY HH:MM:SS for an absolute date or time stamp.
• Universal Ent.Prm—Universal Entity Parameter Identifier. It is basically the same as

Ent.Prm, but the entity name can be entered as an external 16-character tag name or as
the HPM's internal hardware reference address. The hardware reference address
syntax can be used to access parameters of points (within this same HPM) that are
untagged or tagged.

1.3
The following are examples of hardware reference addresses*:
Type Hardware Reference Address
AO Processor Output !AO11S03.OP (Parameter OP of Slot #3 of AO processor #11)
DI Processor PV !DI05S07.PVFL (Parameter PVFL of Slot #7 of DI processor #5)
DO Processor !DO15S12.SO (Parameter SO of Slot #12 of DO processor #15)

Status Output
DO Processor !DO15S12.ONPULSE (Parameter ONPULSE of Slot #12 of DO

ON Pulse Command processor #15)
DO Processor !DO15S12.OFFPULSE (Parameter OFFPULSE of Slot #12 of

OFF Pulse Command DO processor #15)
Lock
The access lock defines "who" or "what" can change the parameter's value or option and the
access level defines "who" or "what" is requesting a parameter value or option change. For
example, if a requestor with an access level of Supr tries to change a parameter that has an
access lock of Engr, the request will be denied. The two charts below describe how access
levels and access locks work.
Access Level Used By Who Or What When A
Parameter Change Request Is Made

Supr or Sup Supervisor
Engr, Eng, or Eg Engineer

______________
*The Analog Input address !AImmSss.Parameter is not supported because the Analog Input point does not have
a useable default database.

1.4
Default
The default for the parameter is the default value assigned by the system. The system
automatically enters the default value for a parameter when a range or a selection is not
entered for a parameter during point building. The default values are also shown on the
configuration forms and parameter entry displays.
PtRes
This defines where the parameter physically resides. The following residency locations are
used in the parameter definitions:
PtRes Definition
HPM High-Performance Process Manager

NIM Network Interface Module
SI Serial Interface
Range
This defines the range of the value that can be entered for this parameter. Integers that
precede HPM resident enumeration parameters are sometimes needed by advanced CL
users. These integers specify the member’s position within the set (that is, the ordinal).
CL programs external to the UCN (such as AM/CL) will see the same enumeration strings,
but in some cases, with different ordinal values.
Helpful Hint
Some parameter definitions contain a Helpful Hint box at the end of the definition. This
box contains additional information about the parameter, such as prerequisites, etc.
1.4 PARAMETERS PER POINT TYPE AND ALGORITHM TYPE

In addition to the parameter definitions, this dictionary also contains listings of the
parameters that are applicable to each HPM point type and algorithm type. Parameters-per-
point-type are defined in Section 2; parameters-per-algorithm-type are defined in Section 3.
1.5 FULL POINTS AND COMPONENT POINTS

Separate functional elements of the HPM are used to implement various parts of typical
control loops and control strategies. Each of these functional elements can be assigned a
user-defined tag name to allow for location-independent reference to the data associated
with that function. For example, point tags are assigned by the user for analog input and
analog output slots. The I/O Processor data (engineering-unit range for inputs,
characterization option for outputs, etc.) is configured as part of the point-build process for
these points. A separate tag is configured for each regulatory control (RegCtl) slot that is
linked to the assigned analog I/O tags through input/output connections.

1.6
The HPM provides a configurable parameter called PNTFORM (Point Form) that allows
the user to define which points are to be used as the primary operator interface for point
data. The PNTFORM parameter provides the user with two choices for point form: "Full"
and "Component." Points that are configured as having "Full" point form include alarm-
related parameters and sometimes, some other miscellaneous parameters. This information
is needed when the point is to be used as the primary operator interface to the point's data.
Points that are configured as having "Component" point form should be used to provide
inputs to the "Full" point and also for those points that handle the outputs from the "Full"
points. "Component" points should be used as part of the "Full" point that has been
designated a primary operator interface point.

1.7 CL ACCESS
1.7.1 Parameter Not Accessible to CL
Parameter $EVNTREC is not accessible to Control Language (CL) sequences.
1.7.2 CL Restricted Parameters
The following parameters are not accessible to PM/CL sequences. They are not directly
available to AM/CL sequences. Access to AM/CL is through a custom data segment
parameters attached to AM regulatory points as described below.
BHALMFL1-BHALMFL7
NODESTS
NODETYP
UCNRECHN
These parameters are available to user schematics using the NIM reserved data point, e.g.,
$NMuuBnn.param, where uu = UCN number and nn = UCN node number.
AM/CL programs can access the restricted parameters as Regulatory Point General inputs
(using ordinary point parameter access). They must be transferred to parameters of AM
regulatory points. There are two ways to do this:
1. Boolean parameters (BHALMFLn), can be referenced as general inputs to a Switch

algorithm. A CL program can access the switch parameters.
2. For Enumerations (NODEOPER, NODESTS, NODETYP, POSITION, AND

UNRECHN) a custom data segment is created to allow the parameters to be referenced
as general inputs and transferred to user-defined parameters (of a RegCtl Point) that can
be accessed by Cl.

Default: NotReq is changed to Cas and RCASOPT is Ddc or DdcRsp. When a request to change
PtRes: HPM MODE to Cas is received from a US or a program, MODE does not immediately
change to Cas. Instead, CASREQ is set to Request and a -C appears to the right
of the mode indicator on the Group and Detail displays. When continuous
control in an AM determines that CASREQ contains Request, it requests the
mode to go to Cas, and changes CASREQ to NotReq.
Should the point shed while it is in the remote cascade mode, MODE goes to the
state defined in SHEDMODE, and CASREQ goes back to Request.

Lock: Prog cut out to prevent this data point's alarms from being reported to the operator.
Default: Off The alarms continue to be reported to the AM or CM through the EIPPCODE
PtRes: HPM parameter.
CONTCUT can be used to cutout alarms on a point when the alarms are
generated because of specific conditions at other points which themselves have
alarms. As an example, the user could configure a logic point so that the logic
point would monitor the nuisance alarm conditions and then store the contact
cutout state of this point using an output connection. It can also be stored by
the sequence program in the HPM or the AM which could monitor the process
conditions to determine when the alarms have to be suppressed.
Range: Off (Alarms are not cut out)

On (Alarms are cut out)
Helpful Hint: Cutout alarms behave the same as inhibited alarms; that is, when a point's
contact cutout state is true—

The HPMM File(s) may be like any of the previous three configurations and up to 40 IOPs
are allowed. The IOP file/Card positions must be configured by the user. Note that on
download to the HPM, PKGOPT changes to REDUN, or REDUN_2F based on the actual
hardware.
I/O Simulator Option

The optional I/O Simulator can be used to build points for this (the host) HPM or another
HPM. When using the I/O Simulator personality you may choose a packaging option
(PKGOPT) that is different from the physical backplane/hardware configuration of the host
HPMM. The intent is to let you choose a PKGOPT based on either the host's hardware
configuration or that of another HPMM. This allows you to create databases for other
HPMs using a single HPM I/O Simulator independent of its actual physical configuration.
The following rules apply:
Host HPM Other HPM PKGOPT
Configuration Configuration Selection
