Emerson VE3008 KJ2005X1-MQ1 12P6381X022 MQ Controller

Emerson VE3008 KJ2005X1-MQ1 12P6381X022 MQ Controller

Functional Description

The VE3008 MQ Controller provides communication and control between the field devices and the other

nodes on the control network. Control strategies and system configurations created on earlier DeltaV™

systems can be used with this powerful controller. The MQ Controller provides all the features and functions

of the MD Plus Controller, with the same amount of memory.

The control languages executed in the controllers are described in the Configuration Software Suite product

data sheet.

Benefits

Increases productivity

The MQ Controller is as quick as the MD Plus Controller and provides the same configurable memory as the

MD Plus Controller. The Ethernet ports are full duplex, 100MB/second maximum throughput. The results are

lower CPU utilization and higher capacity for control strategies.

Self-addressing. The DeltaV controller is unique in its ability to automatically identify itself to the DeltaV

control network. When the controller is powered up, it is automatically assigned a unique address — no dip

switches, no configuring — just plug and play!

Self-locating. A controller's physical location is easy to find. LEDs on the face of the controller can be made

to flash, providing a strong visual clue.

Automatic I/O detection. The controller can identify all I/O interface channels located on the subsystem. As

soon as an I/O interface is plugged in, the controller knows the general characteristics of the field devices

managed by that I/O interface. This reduces the no value engineering associated with configuration — easy!

Connect to Electronic Marshalling. Starting in DeltaV v14.3, CHARMs and wireless devices connected

through CHARM I/O Cards (CIOC) can be assigned to the MQ Controller. This makes it easier than ever to

add I/O to an existing controller by simply adding a CIOC to the DeltaV Area Control Network.
