Data Acquisition

• Data acquisition methods

– PlantConnect DAM to collect real time data from devices - DCS / PLC / HMI /

Controllers / Others

– Input drivers to collect data from enterprise systems like ERP

– Manual data entry

– API to accept data from 3rd party data loggers

• DAM Supports standard protocols like

– OPC DA, OPC UA

– Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU

– Many others

• Watchdog service to restart DAM in case of crash. This ensures

minimal data loss

• Adequate data storage in DAM in case of server unavailability

Historian

• PlantConnect Server uses Apache Tomcat Web

Server which has high availability and scalability

• Secure data storage in binary files

• Option of using Big Data Framework

• Easy and fast data retrieval

• Long term storage of data

• Automatic data archiving

Historian

• View / print historical data values

• View / print historical data trend

• View / print alarms archive

• Rollup data views

• Apply simple functions like avg., min., max.

• Export data to CSV / SQL / Custom format

• Send exported data to other systems via FTP, web service etc.

• Schedule data export

Alarm Management

• Parameter limit based alarms

• Conditional alarms (see details

on next slide)

• Alarm alert on browser client,

mobile app

• Alarm alert by SMS, email

• Alarm escalation

Condition Based Processing

Define conditions

• Based on multiple parameters

• Multiple conditions joined by AND / OR

• Attach periodicity / number of occurrences to the

condition

Examples -

(Pressure1 < 68 AND Valve1 = OFF )

If this occurs 5 times in 30 minutes, then set condition true

(Abs(Zone1Temp – Zone1SetTemp) >= Zone1TempTolerence OR

Abs(Zone2Temp – Zone2SetTemp) >= Zone2TempTolerence )

If this condition occurs and stays for 10 seconds, set condition true

Condition Based Processing

Condition ProcessingAttach condition to one of following

Condition

Based Alarms

Generates an alarm

when condition

occurs

Condition Based

Maintenance

Generates

maintenance workflow

State change

Records a state

change for device /

process when

condition occursExecute logic

Executes custom

logic when condition

occurs. Used for

performance /

efficiency calculations

Execution of Custom Logic

• Plug-in custom logic modules. These are

executed

– Time based

– Every polling cycle

– Based on condition evaluation

Dashboards

• Tree view of devices with current device status

• System level and device level dashboards

• Standard / custom widgets

• Widgets displayed based on user role

• Drill down to individual devices from the dashboard
