Total SCADA solution - right out of the box.

"With our old system, 2000 sites could be waiting in line to get information via the server. It could take hours for an opportunity to poll a site. And by the time you get a screen, the data would already be old. Now, when a pump turns on, an operator can see it on a screen in a second or so."

System Historian

Use InSQL™ software for real-time data collection, history and analysis. InSQL acquires SCADA data in real time at full resolution while providing seamless incorporation of non-real-time, manual or offnetwork data. The tight integration between InTouch and InSQL saves hours of configuration time. This tight integration with InTouch software ensures database integrity and allows one-time tag definition.

System Architecture

SuiteVoyager™ means Web-Enabled

SuiteVoyager is the first SCADA portal that allows you to view and manipulate your applications over the Web — any application, not just those based upon Wonderware offering. You can view multiple screens simultaneously so that you can keep in contact with multiple locations at once, remotely. Also the SuiteVoyager portal means your data is secure.

SCADAlarm

SCADAlarm is a remote dial-out package that provides users with a variety of alarm notification formats. Telephone dial-out, email, beepers and other electronic methods of notifying responsible parties can be created. SCADAlarm also allows users to set notification priorities

Security

SCADASuite can be configured to use an access level password security model that enables the developer of the InTouch application to group users into access levels with different passwords and then assign the access levels to windows and tags. This gives the developer the ability to limit the users’ capabilities in the InTouch application based on their areas of responsibility and authority. The least privilege model of system access security ensures additional security in today’s security-aware environment.

Eycon - Visual Supervisors

Eycon-10 and Eycon-20 visual supervisors offer integrated color TFT LCD display panels (IP65) and are capable of continuous, sequential and logic control. The open network architecture allows connection to the process interface (T2550) I/O modules, PLCs and other 3rd Party devices. Separating the processing and operator interface from the I/O allows for physical distribution of the modules resulting in reduced wiring costs.

T2550 – RTU - Programmable Automation Controller

T2550 is a high performance solution offering extremely cost effective redundancy options, making high availability viable for more of your process. The control unit and I/O system form the basis of a complete distributed control and recording environment capable of continuous analogue, logic and sequential control combined with secure data recording at point of measurement – all designed to maximize Return on Investment from your process.

Redundant data recording

T2550 provides secure data recording at point of measurement. This powerful feature is offered with redundancy simply by plugging in the additional processor module. Again no additional engineering is required as the system synchronizes itself. The data is held in non-volatile memory and is in a secure format to inhibit tampering. If your data has value to you this simplest of offerings is the most powerful in the market place.
