The Enhanced Micro TDC3000 Control System is an extremely compact, yet fully

functional control system in the Honeywell TDC3000X family.  Figure 1-1 is an

illustration of the basic Enhanced Micro TDC3000 Control System.  This control system

communicates to the process via the Honeywell Universal Control Network (UCN).  The

process can be monitored and controlled by Program Manager or Advanced Process

Manager.

This manual describes the Enhanced Micro TDC3000 system.  The system comes in two

models.  The model numbers are:

Model Number

MX-DTAB01

MX-DTAC01

Hardware Components

K2LCN, 1 US, w/APM,

4MW AM, 875 MB HM.

K2LCN, 1 US, w/APM,

8MW AM, 875 MB HM.

The Enhanced Micro TDC 3000 models have the following characteristics and features:

• Only “version A” models (with 1 US node) are offered as the base system.  The

old”version B” models (with 2 US nodes) are no longer offered as a base system (the

old”version B” models are equivalent to a “version A” model, plus an optional US

node).

• All nodes are equipped with K2LCN processors.

• The base models will include an Advanced Process Manager (APM) as standard

equipment.

• The minimum AM processor memory is 4 MW (the base system models are offered with

AM nodes in two memory sizes — either 4 MW or 8 MW).

• The US included with the base system has 6 MW processor memory and supports

‘Universal’ personality.

• The US node in the base system is equipped with dual 150 MB Bernoulli cartridge

‘multi-drives’.  The new ‘multi-drives’ are compatible with 35 MB

• The HM included in the base system has a 875 MB hard drive and 3 MW processor

memory.

• The NIM included in the base system has 3 MW processor memory.

• The US monitor and printer are not included with the “R500-Ready” Enhanced Micro

TDC 3000 models.  These two peripherals have their own model numbers and must be

ordered separately.  The operator’s keyboard, however, is included with the base system

model.

• The Enhanced Micro TDC 3000 models will not support UXS or AXM.  There are

currently no plans to provide UXS or AXM options with the system

The Enhanced Micro TDC3000 Control System consists of two cabinets (also called

“towers”) which together contain the electronics, two cartridge disk drives, and a history

module.  The cabinet electronics support up to four color monitors, four keyboards, and

optional touchscreens or trackballs.  A printer is also connected to the system.

Two electronics modules, one housed in each tower, provide all of the electronics for the

Enhanced Micro TDC3000 Control System (excluding peripherals).  These modules,

called Multinode Modules, are each capable of holding four TDC 3000 Nodes.

Although the Advanced Process Manager (APM) is part of the Enhanced Micro TDC3000

Control System, it is not described in this manual.  See subsection 1.5 for a list of

publications that discuss the Advanced Process Manager and the Universal Control

Network (UCN).
