ROC306 Remote Operations Controller
 |
The unit is available either in a standard version (Class I, Division 2 approval) or in a Measurement Canada version, which includes Class I, Division 2 approval.
The ROC306 uses a single-board design that places all circuitry, including five process inputs and two process outputs (I/O), on a common circuit board. Both the type of I/O and the number of I/O channels are fixed.
The ROC306 consists of these components and features, described in the following pages:
- On-board memory.
- FlashPAC module (standard).
- Three analog and two discrete/pulse inputs.
- One discrete output and one auxiliary output.
- Connections for operator interface.
- Status indicators and diagnostic inputs.
- Mounting provisions for an optional communications card and HART® Interface Card.
The FlashPAC module contains the operating system, ROC communications protocol, and applications firmware (see separate specification sheets). The applications firmware consists of built-in functions, such as AGA flow calculations, PID loop control, and FST control. The ROC306 also maintains an Audit trail per API Chapter 21.1. The FlashPAC module also provides additional battery-backed RAM for user programs. See Specification Sheet 2:MFP for details.
The ROC306 offers 1992 AGA flow calculations contained in firmware. See the FlashPAC Specification Sheet 2:MFP for more information.
