TPS Node
A TPS node is a commercial Intel-based workstation running Microsoft’s Windows NT
operating system. It contains TPS system software and belongs to a TPS Domain. It
has a connection to the Plant Control Network (PCN) and can optionally have a
connection to the TPS Network (TPN). The functions that a TPS node performs
depend on the combination of TPS system software loaded (e.g., operator interaction or
application processing). A TPS node is defined as any of the following.
• GUS
• APP
• Client or Server Node
