UDC 6300 Makes
the Connection

UDC 6300 gives you the option of digitally integrat­ing to Honeywell’s PC-based SCAN 3000 system or
TDC 3000
the functionality needed for your process.

SCAN 3000 Supports Connection
to UDC 6300

SCAN 3000, a scalable, supervisory system, offers a
powerful, cost-effective solution for a variety of applica­tions. SCAN’s client/server architecture operates on
Windows NT. UDC 6300 can be configured directly from
the SCAN 3000 graphical user interface, or locally, via

X

distributed control system, depending on

R485

the control panel. Controller configurations can be copied
between the controllers and modified for reuse – saving
you time and effort.

The low cost RS485 multidrop serial link allows SCAN
to communicate directly with up to 15 UDC devices per
serial line, and up to a maximum of 100 UDC controllers.
SCAN uses an optimized scanning algorithm to enhance
the dialog speed with the controllers.

SCAN 3000 system offers the advantages and features
of a distributed control system in a stand-alone or net­worked design. Implemented through configuration, not
programming, the system provides numerous standard,
configurable elements to support quick start-up and easy
operation.

UDC 6300

Seamless Digital Integration
to Honeywell’s TDC 3000

The evolution of UDC 6300 continues as the only
process controller with the capability to digitally integrate
to Honeywell’s TDC 3000
single-window access via the Universal Station to all
UDC 6300 operating and data base parameters, alarms
and diagnostics. UDC 6300 gives you a logical, straight­forward migration path from your UDC 6300 single loop
stand-alone controllers to a fully integrated solution.

All this and it’s easy to use. Honeywell provides a
full set of Universal Station displays for UDC 6300 that
give the operator unlimited access to process and con­figuration data. In addition, digital integration provides
other advantages, including fast speed for very high
speed loop processing applications, and automatic/
manual station capability for Process Manager/Advanced
Process Manager.

Automatic Loop Tuning
Maintains Precise Control

ACCUTUNE, Honeywell’s innovative adaptive
tuning feature is a powerful rules-based expert system
that automatically tunes the controller for peak operat­ing efficiency. ACCUTUNE lines-out your process
quickly and adjusts PID parameters as required.

When enabled, ACCUTUNE continuously monitors
your process, adjusting the PID constants when necessary
to maintain optimum controller response. Your process
runs closer to specified setpoints – helping your company
produce higher quality products with greater yields,
saving valuable raw materials, and reducing energy costs.

A few simple keystrokes is all it takes to put
ACCUTUNE to work for you; detailed process knowl­edge is not required. Two tuning criteria selections,
“normal” or “fast”, are available to match the controllers
response to the control strategy.
