Introduction

The Alstom ALSPA S8000E Driver supports communication with 80-35 and 80-75 ALSPA Controllers. The Elipse E3, Elipse Power, or Elipse Water system, combined with this Driver, is designed to replace ALSTOM ALSPA system, but keeping the DCS features. An ALSPA System P320 is formed by the following components:

•ControCAD: System where Controllers, database, and control logic are configured. The result of this configuration is stored in an Oracle database, which can be accessed by an Elipse E3, Elipse Power, or Elipse Water application

•CVS: Graphical interface server

•CIS: Real-time database, performing communication with Controllers. It is usually redundant, with servers 1 (one) and 2 (two)

•Controllers: Models 8075, 8035 and MFC3000 are supported

This Driver, together with data models provided by Elipse E3, Elipse Power, or Elipse Water applications, plays the role of CIS stations, while the viewers and screen subsystem plays the role of CVS stations.
