Electrostatic Discharge Awareness

Electronic controls contain static-sensitive parts. Observe the
following precautions to prevent damage to these parts:
 Discharge body static before handling the control (with power to
the control turned off, contact a grounded surface and maintain
Electrostatic contact while handling the control).
Precautions  Avoid all plastic, vinyl, and Styrofoam (except antistatic versions)
around printed circuit boards.
 Do not touch the components or conductors on a printed circuit
board with your hands or with conductive devices.
To prevent damage to electronic components caused by improper
handling, read and observe the precautions in Woodward manual
82715, Guide for Handling and Protection of Electronic Controls,
Printed Circuit Boards, and Modules.
Follow these precautions when working with or near the control.

1. Avoid the build-up of static electricity on your body by not wearing clothing
made of synthetic materials. Wear cotton or cotton-blend materials as much
as possible because these do not store static electric charges as much as
synthetics.
2. Do not remove the printed circuit board (PCB) from the control cabinet
unless absolutely necessary. If you must remove the PCB from the control
cabinet, follow these precautions:
 Do not touch any part of the PCB except the edges.
 Do not touch the electrical conductors, the connectors, or the
components with conductive devices or with your hands.
 When replacing a PCB, keep the new PCB in the plastic antistatic
protective bag it comes in until you are ready to install it. Immediately
after removing the old PCB from the control cabinet, place it in the
antistatic protective bag.

General Information
Introduction
This manual describes the Woodward MicroNet™ Digital Control System (part
number 8238-504) designed to replace the 511 DCS controls designed for
compressor and generator applications.
Electrical Scope of Supply

Qty Description
1 MicroNet Simplex with simplex power supplies & Pentium CPU
1 Analog Combo Module (4 MPUs, 8 AI, 4 AO, 2 ACT)
1 High Density Discrete Module (48 DI, 24 DO)
2 High Density Analog Module utilizing DataForth signal converters (24 In/8 Out)
1 Moore Industries AD590 Ambient Temperature Signal Converter
General Description
The Woodward MicroNet Digital Control System is a programmable control
system for gas turbines which can control speed, load, pressure, level, or flow. It
can also control any other system parameter that can be sensed either by a
transducer and converted to an analog signal, or by switches and contacts.
Inputs
This control can receive inputs from the following devices:
 4 Magnetic pickups
 12 Temperature sensors (J and K-type Thermocouples)
 28 Analog Input Sensors (4 to 20 mA dc signals)
 48 Discrete input contacts
Outputs
A MicroNet Digital Control System uses analog and discrete output modules to
provide the following outputs. You can use more than one module of a particular
type to increase the number of that same type of output channels if needed.
 2 actuator driver channels (0 to 20 mA dc or 0 to 200 mA dc maximum range)
 24 relay outputs
 12 current outputs (4 to 20 mA dc)
Power Requirements
The MicroNet Digital Control System has both high and low voltage models
available. The high voltage supply requires 90-150 Vdc or 88-132 Vac 50/60 Hz.
The low voltage supply requires 18-32 Vdc.
Woodward 1
Hardware
The MicroNet Digital Control System is housed in a standard six-slot chassis
which should be bulkhead mounted in the control panel.
The card rack has six slots for modules. Slots 2 through 6 are for Input/Output
(I/O) modules, and slot 1 must contain the CPU module.
There are two types of modules in a MicroNet control: the CPU (kernel) modules
and the I/O (input/output) modules. The CPU module controls the system. The
I/O modules interface the CPU module to the outside world, permitting it to sense
digital and analog inputs and to issue analog and discrete outputs.
Each module is assigned to a specific slot, and the software will expect that
specific I/O module always to be in its designated slot.
Physical Description
The modules slide into guide channels in the MicroNet chassis and plug into the
motherboard. All modules have their circuitry on a single printed-circuit board.
The top and bottom edges of the modules slide into guide channels in the card
rack, and the connectors on the module back edges mate with connectors on the
motherboard.
Each module has a strip on its front edge which serves as a pull handle when
disengaging the connector on the module from the connector on the
motherboard. The strip also serves as a handle to hold the module.
Relays are included in the system to isolate the system's discrete output circuits
from the field wiring. The relay box is DIN rail mounted next to the High Density
Discrete Field Termination Module (FTM).
Central Processor Unit (CPU) Module

The NT CPU module follows the instructions of the application program and
controls all the circuits of the MicroNet control.
The NT CPU module has the following switch and indicators:
 KEYBOARD PORT
Not used.
 MOUSE PORT
Not used.
 ABORT / FAIL LED

Illuminates GREEN when the system is powered up or after a reset is issued.
Illuminates RED when the CPU is initializing or when a problem is detected
 RESET / PASS SWITCH

Momentary switch to manually reset the CPU and the entire system. All modules
are placed in I/O Lock until the CPU completes its initialization routine.
2 Woodward
Do not press down on the Reset Switch when the turbine is running.
Pressing down on this switch disables all I/O outputs and could
cause loss of control of the turbine resulting in damage to equipment
or personal injury or both.
The CPU module has the following Communications Ports:
100BT
10/100 Base-TX Ethernet port used for Modbus®* communication and service
tools. This port is not isolated and should only be accessed using the supplied
Ethernet Filter module.
*—Modbus is a trademark of Schneider Automation Inc.
COM 1 and COM 2

The two serial ports can be used for RS-232 communications using ASCII or
RTU.
 The COM 1 Serial Port is configured to use a standard Modbus communication
protocol.
 The COM 2 Serial Port is configured as a ‘ServLink’ protocol port for service
tools.
I/O Modules
Every I/O module has a FAULT LED which is controlled by the CPU. During
every initialization of the system, the CPU turns these LEDs on. The CPU then
individually tests each I/O module. If an I/O module fails any test, the FAULT
LED remains on. The FAULT LED remaining on after the diagnostics have run
may mean that the module has failed a test, or it may mean that the module is in
the wrong slot.
Analog Combo Module

High Density Analog Module

Application Program
The application program is designed for a specific application by using the
Woodward Graphical Application Program (GAP™). The GAP program, which
runs on a standard PC (personal computer), builds and compiles the application
program file. This application code is then processed by a program called the
MicroNet Digital Control System Coder, which generates the application program
code, which is then loaded into flash memory on the CPU module circuit board.

Description of Operation
Scope
This chapter describes the operation and features included in the MicroNet®
Digital Control System for control of a gas turbine driving a compressor. The
control has been divided into major functions for this description. Many of these
functions have sub-functions, although not all of these may exist in your specific
unit. The major functions of this MicroNet system include:
 Speed Control/Actuator
 Speed Sensing
 Speed Reference
 Start Ramp and Start Ramp Logic
 Ambient Temperature Sensor
 Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor
 CDP Sensor
 Analog and Digital Outputs
 Remote PT Control
Speed Control/Actuator
Speed control is responsible for setting the turbine fuel valve position to maintain
the requested turbine speed. The sub-functions are:
 GG Control PID
 PT Control PID
 LSS Bus
 Accel Schedule
 Decel Schedule
 HSS Bus
 Actuator Driver
GG Control PID
The GG control PID (proportional-integral-derivative) function block compares the
GG actual speed signal with the GG speed reference and calculates an
appropriate output response. The GG control PID has three inputs:
 Actual speed input from the GG scaler
 GG speed reference input
 Feedback input from the jump and rate circuit output
PT Control PID
The PT control PID compares the PT actual speed signal with the PT speed
reference and calculates an appropriate output response. The PT control PID
has three inputs:
 Actual speed input from the PT scaler
 PT speed reference input
 Feedback input from the jump and rate circuit output
LSS Bus
The low signal select (LSS) bus selects the lowest of the GG PID, PT PID, EGT
PID, start ramp, or the accel schedule signals, and passes it to the HSS bus.
Whichever signal is calling for the lowest fuel is the one used for LSS bus output.
4 Woodward
ACCEL Schedule
The accel schedule determines the maximum amount of fuel allowed during
acceleration. It is based on either CDP (compressor discharge pressure) or the
speed derivative. If the accel schedule is based on CDP, it will receive a signal
from the CDP scaler and determines the maximum amount of fuel allowed for the
current CDP. If the speed derivative accel is used, the maximum amount of fuel
allowed is determined by a speed vs. speed derivative curve. This is
programmed in the control. It then outputs this value to the LSS. If this value is
the lowest on the LSS, the accel schedule controls the LSS.
DECEL Schedule
The decel schedule determines the minimum amount of fuel allowed during
deceleration, based on CDP. It receives a signal from the CDP scaler and
determines the minimum amount of fuel allowed for the current CDP. It then
outputs this value to the HSS. If this value is the highest on the HSS, the decel
schedule controls the HSS.
HSS Bus
The HSS bus receives the outputs of the LSS bus and the decel schedule as
inputs. Whichever of these inputs is higher will be the signal sent to the jump and
rate block by the HSS bus.
Actuator Driver
The actuator driver converts the 0-to-100% software control signal to a 10-to-200
mA drive signal. An input from the shutdown input can override the control signal
and cause the actuator to go to minimum-fuel position or shut down. The
shutdown circuit also has short and open coil fault detection. The actuator
translates the signal from the electronic control into mechanical force to position
the fuel valve.
Speed Sensing
The function of speed sensing is to monitor engine speed. The sub-functions are:
 Speed Sensors
 Sensor Fault Detection
 Speed Switches
Speed Sensors
There are four speed sensors in this system, two for GG and two for PT. The
digital speed sensor I/O board receives input from the speed sensors on the
turbine and converts this speed signal to a form usable by the control. The two
speed signals from PT are high-signal selected with only the one indicating the
higher speed being sent to the scaler (Hz to rpm). The output of this scaler goes
to the PT control PID.
Sensor Fault Detection

Sensor fault detection is done in the application software. On detection of a
sensor fault, a signal is generated for activation of associated indicators and
alarms.
Speed Switches
There are three speed switches for GG and three speed switches for PT. These
speed switches control relay drivers which can be used by the turbine system.
There is also an overspeed switch for GG and one for PT. Each of these
switches can be configured to activate at any speed. In addition, overspeed
alarm switches are available for both GG and PT. Each switch also initiates a
potential shutdown or alarm when activated.
Woodward 5
Speed Reference
The speed reference produces the desired speed-setting signal and sends it to
the speed controller. The sub-functions are:
 Speed Setting
 GG Ambient Bias
 Remote Speed Setting
Speed Setting
The GG and PT speed settings are raised or lowered by closing the associated
contact. The rate at which the reference changes can also be selected. Each
speed reference has both an upper and a lower limit position. The speed setting
at each of these positions is a tunable value. Each speed reference also includes
relay options to indicate when that speed reference is at the upper and lower
limits.
GG Ambient Bias
The GG reference receives a reference input from the ambient temperature bias
block. If the ambient temperature input fails, a fixed value (which is configurable)
bias signal is input to the GG reference.
Remote Speed Setting

The PT speed setting can be controlled by a remote signal. The ENABLE contact
enables remote speed setting. When enabled, the speed setting can be changed
by varying a remote 4–20 mA signal. At this time all PT associated switch
contacts (RAISE, LOWER, FAST, and INSTANT) must be open.
Start Mode
This control contains two options for start control, which is the initial control mode
for the fuel. Both of these options are intended to provide a slow acceleration of
the turbine, from turbine ‘lite-off’ up to closed loop N1 or N2 speed control. Once
the fuel control has reached N1 or N2 control, the start mode demand signal is
ramped out of the way (to 100%).
Once the Start Ramp Enabled discrete input contact is closed (TRUE), the fuel
control will initiate a start. To achieve successful turbine ‘lite-off’, the unit must
have been set up for either a mechanical lite-off or an electrical lite-off.
 Mechanical Lite-off = Minimum valve position mechanically set to yield
correct lite-off fuel flow. If this is used, configure the MIN_FUEL position to
zero (0.0).
 Electrical Lite-off = Minimum valve position set in software (MIN_FUEL) to
yield correct valve demand position to yield lite-off fuel flow. If this is used,
the valve should have the min stop set mechanically to zero degrees.
For information on setting MIN_FUEL, see Appendix C
This contact is NOT a latched input, meaning that it must be held TRUE to
activate fuel. If this signal is lost or drops out, the fuel control will chop fuel
demand to the MIN Fuel Demand position.
6 Woodward
NGG Derivative Control Start

This is the default start mode programmed for accelerating the turbine from
Lite-off to speed control. This mode provides a PID control to raise the N1 speed
at a defined acceleration rate of the N1 speed signal. The default rate for this is
50 rpm/s. This control loop will steadily increase fuel demand until a point at
which a speed loop takes over control. The advantage of this mode is that it is
closed loop around a parameter, while the start ramp mode simply opens the fuel
valve with no feedback based on what is happening. The start ramp default rate
(set in Appendix C) should be set high enough to just stay ahead of (greater
than) the demand from this PID.
Start Ramp Control Start

An alternate start mode is simply to continue to ramp up the Start Ramp from the
initial MIN_FUEL position to a point at which a speed loop takes over control of
the fuel valve demand. The ramp will increase at the default rate, which is
configured in Appendix C.
Ambient Temperature Sensor

The ambient temperature is sensed by an AD590. The AD590 microamp signal is
converted to a milliamp signal through the Moore Industries device. This device
has been programmed with a microamp-to-milliamp/temperature conversion
chart that converts the value into a 4–20 mA signal. The ambient temperature
sensor signal is converted to a digital signal in the MicroNet control and input to
the GG reference and the EGT reference. If the ambient temperature input signal
fails, a fixed-value signal (which can be changed using Woodward Watch
Window II) is fed to the GG reference, and another fixed-value signal (which can
also be changed using Watch Window II) is sent to the EGT reference.
Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT)

The EGT section of this control includes the following sub-sections:
 EGT Sensing
 Temperature Control PID
 Temperature Reference
EGT Sensing
Two methods of sensing EGT are available, one thermocouple and multiple
thermocouples. When the one-thermocouple method is selected (using the
Watch Window tool), a single type K thermocouple senses EGT. The system
feeds the temperature information from this thermocouple to the three
temperature switches, the overtemp switch, and the EGT control PID. When the
multiple-thermocouple method is used, the EGT is sensed by eleven type K
thermocouples. The temp spread monitor block calculates the average reading of
the eleven thermocouples (excluding any that are outside of the allowed spread
or have failed). The temp spread monitor block and the subtract block calculate
the difference between the highest and lowest readings (of the thermocouples
that are included in the average). The average is sent to the three temperature
switches, the overtemp switch, and the EGT control PID.
Woodward 7
Temperature Control PID
The EGT PID block compares the actual EGT signal with the reference EGT
signal and generates an appropriate output response signal. The EGT control
PID receives a digital temperature signal from the selected sensing block, the
EGT reference, and a feedback signal from the jump and rate block output.
Temperature Reference
The EGT Reference receives a reference input (programmable base, peak, or
max.) selected by input, and a bias signal from the ambient bias block. If the
ambient temperature input fails, a fixed value (also can be changed using the
programmer) is selected for the bias signal.
Compressor Discharge Pressure (CDP)

Compressor discharge pressure (CDP) is sensed by a 4–20 mA pressure
transducer. The 4–20 mA pressure signal is converted to a digital signal and
used to bias the accel and decel schedules and as an input to the CDP readout
driver.
Analog And Relay Driver Outputs

In addition to the actuator output, the control has outputs to indicate control
operation and turbine parameters and conditions. The sub-functions are:
 Analog Outputs
 Relay Outputs
 Alarms
 Shutdowns
 Reset
Analog Outputs
The system includes the following analog outputs:
 Actuator drive signals. This system includes two actuator drivers, one for the
gaseous-fuel actuator and one for the liquid-fuel actuator. Each of the two
actuator drivers receives a fuel-demand signal from its associated scaler, and
sends a 10–200 mA drive signal to its actuator. Each actuator, in turn, controls
the flow of one type of fuel. If the unit is not dual fuel and is programmed for
surge, the liquid actuator driver output controls the surge recycle valve.
 Readout signals (4 to 20 mA). The system includes the following 4–20 mA
signals for driving readouts:
GG (N1) Actual Speed Readout
PT (N2) Actual Speed Readout
EGT Readout
CDP Readout
Fuel Driver Demand Readout
CIT (compressor inlet temperature or ambient temperature) Readout
8 Woodward
Relay Driver Outputs
Twenty-four relay channels are available from the MicroNet control Field
Terminal Module (with relays). These relays are driven by discrete outputs and
used to indicate the function or status of the control or turbine. The relay outputs
for ALARM and SHUTDOWN relays are normally energized. The relay signal
outputs are programmed as follows:
1. Shutdown

Watch Window II (WWII)

The Woodward Watch Window II (WWII) tool permits you to talk to the MicroNet
control via the Ethernet port on the CPU. You can use WWII to monitor values,
change parameters or set points, read fault messages, or issue instructions to
the MicroNet Digital Control System.
The WWII tool is run on a laptop or desktop PC and uses standard Windows
dialog boxes and Explorer windows to allow the user to create ‘Inspector’ files of
any fields available in the application software.
Module Removal and Replacement

To prevent damaging to a MicroNet module or the system, follow these
instructions when removing or replacing a module.
Removing MicroNet Modules
Before removing or working on a module, read the Electrostatic

Discharge Awareness section on page ii, and read the information in
Woodward manual 82715, Guide For Handling and Protection of
Electronic Controls, Printed Circuit Boards, and Modules.
Power must be turned off before removing any module from the
control cabinet. Removing or installing a module with power on may
damage that module or other parts of the control.
10 Woodward
The following procedure describes the proper method for removing a MicroNet
control module:
1. Disconnect FTM cables form the FTM by unlocking the retaining clip. Pull the
cable off, being careful not to bend any of the cable connector pins.
2. Using the tabs on the modules push them away from the center of the
module. The module will snap out
3. Place the module in a non-conductive plastic bag.
Module Fault
Module faults are indicated by a red LED on the module. If a red LED is on and
the system is not initializing, the module is most likely bad. Reset the control by
toggling the reset switch on the CPU module to see if the red LED will clear. If
the LED remains on, the module should be replaced.
Do not replace modules with power applied to the MicroNet Digital

Control System. Removing and inserting modules with power applied
could result in damage to the MicroNet control.
Installing MicroNet Modules

When installing a module into the rack cabinet, keep two things in mind.
 First, the power to the control cabinet must be off. Removing the operating
power prevents voltage transients from damaging the integrated circuits.
Open the circuit breaker supplying operating power to the rack cabinet.
 Second, you must be very careful to install each module in the correct slot
because there are no keys to keep a module from fitting in the wrong slot.
To aid in proper module placement, the module slots are labeled with the
slot number (1 on the left and 12 on the right) as well as the type of module
allowed in that slot.
The following procedure describes the proper method for installing a MicroNet
control module:
1. Push the module into the slot until the connector on the module and the
connector on the motherboard make contact. When inserting the module
make sure the PCB lines up with the guides designed to guide the module in.
2. With even pressure exerted at the top and bottom of the module, firmly push
the module into place.
3. Replace the cables on the module. Be careful not to bend cable pins when
putting the cables back on. Place the retaining clip back into the locked
position.
If resistance is encountered when installing a module, do not force

the module. Remove the module and check the connectors for bent
pins or obstructions. Forcing a connector may crack its insulator or
break a pin.
Woodward 11
Initiating Ethernet Communications with the Control

Each CPU for this system will ship from Woodward with a default IP address of
190.14.98.116 (as a new unit) or 190.14.99.220 (as a spare). This means that
the user must initially connect directly to the control with a PC that has had its IP
changed to an address that is on this same first 3 octets within the subnet mask
(for example 190.14.99. 221). Once the connecting PC is configured like this, the
user can launch WWII by typing the IP address in the initial dialog box that opens
when WWII is launched.
Changing the IP address of the Control

It is usually desirable to changed the fixed IP to an address available on the plant
network, thus placing the control on the plant LAN. This is done via the
AppManager program (supplied on SysDoc CD or from www.woodward.com).
The user can change the control IP to any available IP on the plants local
network.
This is done from AppManager via a pull-down menu that is created

by ‘Right mouse Clicking’ on the dialog box header bar “Change
Network Settings”.
Control Problems
PID Controller Tuning
The majority of problems associated with the control of the turbine can be
attributed to poor tuning of the PID control loops. These problems include
overspeeding, overtemping, and flaming out, as well as many others. If the
turbine control is hunting for example, the loop that is currently controlling the fuel
valve is most likely incorrectly tuned and could cause sufficient overshoot to
overspeed or overtemp the turbine. Some general tuning guidelines are outlined
below.
Tuning of PID loops should only be performed by qualified personnel

who have a good understanding how the control should be
performing. Improper tuning can result in overspeed or overtemp
conditions which could cause damage to the turbine or possible
injury or death to personnel.
The quality of regulation obtained from an automatic control system depends

upon the adjustments that are made to the various controller modes. Best results
are obtained when the adjustment (tuning) is done systematically. Prior training
and experience in controller tuning are desirable for effective application of this
procedure.
This procedure will lead to controller settings which, after a load change, will
provide:
 Process control without sustained cycling
 Process recovery in a minimum time
12 Woodward
Controller settings derived for given operating conditions are valid over a narrow
range of load change. The settings made for one operating set of conditions may
result in excessive cycling or highly damped response at some other operating
condition. This procedure should be applied under the most difficult operating
conditions to assure conservative settings over the normal operating range.
There are several methods of controller tuning in use. The following procedure
presents one which will be easiest to use, and at the same time, minimize
process upset. This method is one of systematic trial and error.
The method given is based on the 1/4-ratio decay cycle. The peak of each cycle
is 1/4 of the preceding one. The objective is to produce a trace as shown in
Figure 2-1.
Figure 2-1. Ratio Decay Cycle
It is good practice to keep the average of the set point changes near the normal
set point of the process to avoid excessive departure from normal operating
level.
After each set point change, allow sufficient time to observe the effect of the last
adjustment. It is wise to wait until approximately 90% of the change has been
completed.
Woodward 13
Controller Field Tuning Procedure

1. Have the process steady state on manual control at the normal set point. It is
important that, for the duration of the controller tuning operation, no load
changes take place. The occurrence of a load change may cause a
misinterpretation of the recorder trace. Turn the integral adjustment to the
position of low reset response, that is, place the reset adjustment at 0.02
repeats per minute (or 50 minutes per repeat). Adjust the Proportional Gain
to a fairly low setting. (The actual value of the Proportional Gain will depend
on the type of process variable being controlled.) Leave it this way until it is
assured that the process has reached steady state.
2. Turn the Integral adjustment to minimum Reset effect; this will reduce or
eliminate the Integral function. Check to see that Derivative adjustment is set
for minimum Derivative, or in Woodward controllers at 100.
3. Switch to automatic control. Make a small change* in the set point and
observe the response of the process to the Proportional Gain setting. If little
or no cycling takes place, increase the Proportional Gain to 150% of its
previous value and make another small change to the set point. After each
set point change, increase the Proportional Gain to twice its previous value
until an "Optimum Proportional" response curve (see below) is obtained. If a
change in Proportional produces a "Proportional Too High" curve (see
below), lower the Proportional Gain to its previous setting. The "Proportional
Too Low" curve illustrates the condition in which the proportional is too low.
Figure 2-2. Proportional Gain Settings
*Set point changes can be made either up or down scale. The second change should
return the set point to its original setting. Repeat this pattern through the tuning procedure.
4. With the Proportional Gain at the setting previously obtained in step 3, make
a change in set point and observe the recovery cycle. If there is no excessive
cycling, increase the Integral to 0.04 repeats per minute (or 25 minutes per
repeat). Make another set point change and observe results. After each set
point change, make a change in the Integral adjustment to increase the
Integral by 50% of the previous Integral effect. Continue in this manner until
an acceptable response curve is obtained.
14 Woodward
Poor Valve Response

What can appear as a tuning problem is often poor valve response. This can be
due to a sticky actuator or inconsistent hydraulic pressure to the actuator.
Changing hydraulic oil properties can also have an adverse affect to the control
of the turbine.
The hydraulic supply to the actuator must be a consistent pressure over the
entire operating range of the turbine.
The MicroNet control has logic built in to account for a sticky valve/actuator
assembly. If you are having problems with the control of the turbine and the loops
have been tuned and hydraulics verified, contact the Woodward for service.
Software Setup Procedure

Use of the WWII tool is required to access the application software tunable
values of the MicroNet Digital Control System. Software setup for the MicroNet
control begins with the software worksheet. When the worksheet is completed,
the values are then entered into the MicroNet control with the WWII tool. This tool
can also be used to upload (from the control to a file on the user PC) the tunable
settings from the control. This file then can be downloaded (from the user PC to
the control) into another control of the same part number and revision number.
The site should keep this tunable file archived as it will simplify configuration of
other spare units and aid technical support in commissioning troubleshooting.
The entry of incorrect values during the setup procedure can cause
death, injury, and equipment damage. Be sure that the values to be
entered are correct and have not been changed. If a value has been
changed, cross out the old value and write the correct value in the
software worksheet.

Woodward Factory Servicing Options

The following factory options for servicing Woodward products are available
through your local Full-Service Distributor or the OEM or Packager of the
equipment system, based on the standard Woodward Product and Service
Warranty (5-01-1205) that is in effect at the time the product is originally shipped
from Woodward or a service is performed:
 Replacement/Exchange (24-hour service)
 Flat Rate Repair
 Flat Rate Remanufacture
Replacement/Exchange: Replacement/Exchange is a premium program

designed for the user who is in need of immediate service. It allows you to
request and receive a like-new replacement unit in minimum time (usually within
24 hours of the request), providing a suitable unit is available at the time of the
request, thereby minimizing costly downtime. This is a flat-rate program and
includes the full standard Woodward product warranty (Woodward Product and
Service Warranty 5-01-1205).
This option allows you to call your Full-Service Distributor in the event of an
unexpected outage, or in advance of a scheduled outage, to request a
replacement control unit. If the unit is available at the time of the call, it can
usually be shipped out within 24 hours. You replace your field control unit with
the like-new replacement and return the field unit to the Full-Service Distributor.
Charges for the Replacement/Exchange service are based on a flat rate plus
shipping expenses. You are invoiced the flat rate replacement/exchange charge
plus a core charge at the time the replacement unit is shipped. If the core (field
unit) is returned within 60 days, a credit for the core charge will be issued.
Flat Rate Repair: Flat Rate Repair is available for the majority of standard
products in the field. This program offers you repair service for your products with
the advantage of knowing in advance what the cost will be. All repair work carries
the standard Woodward service warranty (Woodward Product and Service
Warranty 5-01-1205) on replaced parts and labor.
Flat Rate Remanufacture: Flat Rate Remanufacture is very similar to the Flat
Rate Repair option with the exception that the unit will be returned to you in “like-
new” condition and carry with it the full standard Woodward product warranty
(Woodward Product and Service Warranty 5-01-1205). This option is applicable
to mechanical products only.

Application Worksheet
Worksheet for MicroNet Control Application

The following worksheet is used to select the values used in the tunable blocks of
the GAP™ for the MicroNet® Digital Control System application. On the lines
provided, enter the values used for your control. If values are changed, enter the
new values. Use a separate worksheet for each control when more than one
control is used at each site. To assist users of the 511 DCS systems in
understanding the new MicroNet Digital Control System, two Watch Window II
(WWII) Inspector files were created.
This appendix will only match the original inspector files that were
created at the time of control shipment. It is expected that as users
get familiar with the system, they will customize these inspector files.
The CONFIG.WWI file should be used once, at initial installation, to establish the
correct turbine package configuration details for correct operation of the fuel
control. The turbine must be shut down (in a non-running state) during control
setup with this WWII inspector file.
The SERVICE.WWI file should be used anytime calibration, tuning, or monitoring

of the control system is required. The turbine may be operational during the use
of this WWII inspector file; however, it may or may not be running (that is, during
valve calibration, the unit should be shut down).

Configure portion of the application software. The default value and range are
shown for each tunable.

**************************************************
To allow any of the CONFIGURE tunables to be used by the control, you must
first enter I/O Lock by ‘right mouse clicking’ on the CPU icon in the Explorer
window. Once this is done the CNFIG_MODE block on this inspector sheet will
show a TRUE value.
This section contains the parameters required to configure start ramp functions.
The start ramp is initiated by closure of the start ramp contact. Opening of the
contact causes an immediate reset of the start ramp output to zero and
immediate setting of the actuator output to the minimum fuel limit.
1. Configuration Complete? FALSE (T/F) __________

This needs to be tuned TRUE once configuration is complete.
2. Gas Min Fuel Limit 2.00 (0.00 to 10.00) __________

 Start ramp minimum fuel limit in % of valve travel. This sets an
"electrical" light off fuel flow. If the fuel valve mechanical minimum stop
is set for light-off flow then set this value to zero. After closure of the
Start Ramp contact and the Start Ramp output becomes greater than
the Decel Schedule (CDP based deceleration rate limiter) output the
Start Ramp Min Fuel Limit is defeated so the Decel Schedule can
command actuator position to be below this point.
3. Gas Start Ramp Rate 0.26 (0.00 to 5.00) __________

 Timed start ramp transfer rate in % actuator travel per second.
4. Use Individual T/C Monitor ? TRUE (TRUE to FALSE) __________

 Temperature monitoring option—if answered TRUE, allows temperature
spread monitoring with alarms or trips on adjustable spreads. Up to 11
thermocouples can be monitored.
30 Woodward
If not using spread monitor functions, the relative alarms and trips
will be disabled.
5. Auto Override of T/C Signals (During start) TRUE? __________

The following section outlines optional configurations that can be adjusted in this
standard control. These should be checked at the site to be sure they are correct
for the turbine being controlled; however the default settings for this unit should
be valid for replacing the Woodward 8237-066 control.
CDP ACCEL SCHEDULE—Three-slope acceleration rate limiter based on CDP

scaled in the same units as above. Outputs are scaled from 0 to 100% of valve
travel. Since gas flow is not proportional to actuator current or valve angle, the
Accel Schedule breakpoints should be calculated based on fuel flow, and then
fuel flow converted to actuator current using valve test data.
Note on completing Accel and Decel Schedules—Gas flow in pph or BTU/hr vs.
actuator current data is required. Also required is the turbine manufacturers
acceleration and deceleration specifications.
1. Plot a piece-wise linear approximation to the required accel and decel

schedules with three slopes maximum for accel and two for decel. This plot
determines the breakpoints in the schedules entered into the MicroNet
control. Note that line slopes established by the schedule points do not
change to zero at endpoints. If actuator current is to be held constant for
varying CDP, then a zero slope line segment must be created in the
schedule.
2. Rescale the dependent variable (gas mass flow or heat consumption) to

match the units used in the gas flow data.
Woodward 35
3. Now plot the valve test data with the dependent variable scaled as above vs.
actuator current. For greatest accuracy, a non-linear curve fit of the data
should be used; however a piece-wise linear plot is generally acceptable.
4. Using the Y axis (gas flow) values of the endpoints and breakpoints from the
plot of step 1, determine the corresponding actuator current values which
produce those flows in the plot of step 3.
5. Find the X axis (CDP) values of the endpoints and breakpoints from the plot
of step 1.
6. Rescale the actuator current values of step 4 on a scale of 0 to 100

corresponding to min. to max. stops on the valve. If desired, plot this
normalized actuator current as a function of CDP. This is the schedule to be
entered in the MicroNet control.
For example:
See the linearized sample manufacturers specification in Figure C-1 and the
valve test data example in Table C-1.
Figure C-1. Linearized Flow Schedule

9.0 32.8 435
9.8 35.0 515

51.5 155.1 12488
Table C-1. Valve Test Data
36 Woodward
Given the gas lower heating value of 20 000 BTU/lbm, flow in million BTU/hr can
be rescaled for pph as in the valve test data. The accel schedule breakpoint is at
7250 pph (145 million BTU/hr) fuel flow and 180 psia CDP. From the valve test
data, this point corresponds to 108.9 mA of actuator current. For this example a
linear interpolation between valve test data points was used to find the actuator
current (step 3 above), however better accuracy will result using a non-linear
curve fit. Two more points are required to establish the two-slope accel schedule.
The first is (40 psia,1600 pph) which corresponds to 54.9 mA. The second
endpoint is (240 psia, 10500 pph) which corresponds to an actuator current of
137.6 mA. Now rescale actuator current for 0 to 100 for min. to max. travel of the
valve. From the valve data, min. travel is at 35.0 mA and max travel is at 155.1
mA. This gives:
CDP Act. Current Act. Signal
(psia) (mA) (0 to 100)
40 54.9 16.6
180 108.9 61.5
240 137.6 85.4
where CDP is the Accel Schedule input value to be entered and ACT. SIGNAL is
the output value to be entered. The same procedure is followed for the Decel
Schedule.
DN/DT Accel Schedule is biased by GG speed derivative. When DN/DT PID

control is used, the acceleration (or deceleration) schedule values must be in
terms of GG speed (for inputs) and GG derivative (for outputs).

** GAS FUEL VALVE CALIBRATION **
**********************************************************************
To enable Actuator Calibration, EGT TEMP must be less than 400 °F

(204 °C), have no trips existing on unit, and Enable Actuator
Calibration must be tuned TRUE. See note above on determining fuel
valve actuator calibration minimum & maximum current settings.
1. Enable Actuator Calibration FALSE (TRUE to FALSE) __________
2. Valve Percent Act Stroke 0.00 (0.00 to 100.00) __________

Adjusting this value strokes the fuel valve actuator, scaled in percent actuator
demand.
3. Gas Actuator Minimum Current 20.00 (0.00 to 100.00) __________
Current of GAS fuel act driver at zero demand.
4. Gas Actuator Maximum Current 160.00 (20.00 to 180.00) __________

Offset calibration for GAS fuel act driver.
5. Gas Act. Dither Amplitude 2.00 (0.00 to 5.00) __________

This value adjusts the amplitude of the AC component of the actuator signal.
Adjust this value in the increasing direction until vibration is noticeable at the
terminal shaft of the actuator and decrease the amplitude until the vibration is
no longer perceptible.
Tunable Upload/Download Function

The TUNABLE UPLOAD & DOWNLOAD functionality is used for downloading or
uploading tunables into or out of the control. The tunables may be downloaded
from the control to a PC anytime, however the turbine must be shutdown while
using the TUNABLE DOWNLOAD FUNCTION mode.
Entering into I/O Lock mode while the turbine is running will cause
an automatic shutdown of the turbine with resulting process
stoppage. Do not enter the I/O Lock to upload tunables into the
control while the turbine is running.
From WWII—Go to the Explorer window and ‘right-mouse’ click on the control
(top level). A pull-down menu will appear, and the App Settings selection will
allow you to Save to File or Load from File.
SAVE = Download the tunables in the control to a file on the user PC
LOAD = Upload tunable settings from a user PC into the control
Loading tunables into the control will cause the unit to Lock the I/O and shut
down the turbine.
A complete list of tunables can be found in Appendix B.
