Programming

The MicroNet TMR control system provides an

IEC1131-3 environment for programming. Application

code is generated by use of Woodward’s GAP™

Graphical Application Programming environment or

Woodward’s Ladder Logic programming environment.

The MicroNet TMR operating system, together with

GAP, produces a very powerful control environment

designed for control and protection of turbines and

compressors. Woodward’s unique scan rate structure

ensures that control functions will execute

deterministically at defined scan rates, with critical

control loops able to be processed within 5 milliseconds.

Accurate speed and speed acceleration and

deceleration rates are sensed using a sampling rate of

100 microseconds. These ultra-fast sampling and

response rates allow the controller to adequately

respond to system transients, failures, or safety events.
