.1 Provide fitters to protect the system from power line surges and voltage transients.
.1 Provide automatic
retention of RAM and real time clock from any power failure of at least SEVENTY-TWO (72)
hours
duration. This feature will be checked during the commissioning phase.
.2 Provide for automatic restart of the system upon power return.
.1 Any component malfunction shall not damage any of the remaining components.
.2 Provide over voltage protection on inputs and outputs.
.1 SAP and TUC replacement shall be possible without any hardware modification.
.1 The system shall
have the capability to be taken off line in the event of failure or for maintenance and
returned to
operation
without the need for entering any portion of the software program manually. To accomplish
this, an
off-line
disk storage device shall be utilized to provide software backup and reload.
.2 On-site backup
and verification of the entire system, with full applications software, shall be less than
TWO (2)
seconds
per real point. This feature will be checked during the commissioning phase.
.1 Each SAP on the main network proposed shall have enough random access memory (RAM) for all of the following:
.1 Effective SAP
Processing Speed - Maximum permissible execution time is TWO (2) seconds. Execution time
is
defined
as the time it takes the SAP CPU to execute all application software in the SAP, with no
system timing
errors,
from some point in the software back to the same point, assuming full memory usage, as
defined in Clause
5.6
above, while simultaneously responding to operator or terminal display requests and
carrying out normal
inter-SAP
communications averaged over a ONE (1)-minute period. This will be done during the
commissioning
phase
by setting up a counter in each SAP and monitoring their counting rate.
5.8 System Display Speed
.1 The minimum time
to change from one dynamic screen to another is 7 seconds. This test will be carried out
from a
remote
site with the Corporation's standard modem and will be the average of 10 typical displays
for the project.
Test
will be carried out with the specified system configuration, excluding multi-user and
alarming functions.
