Best Practice in the New

●How can you reduce your

engineering time

●How can you reduce your

maintenance costs and

maintain production

●How can you get more out of

your investment to meet your

needs

How can you map the production process to the SCADA design?

How can our operators visualize the process?


Design your thinking ●Define Equipment

● Piece of equipment

● Location in hierarchy

● Link to existing tags

● Link to alarms & trends

● Item references

● Matching Genies

● Matching Popups

● Inbuilt PAC diagnostics

● Link with reports

Get more operational efficiency

●How can the operator get access to information faster?

●Equipment design allows the operator to easily navigate the

process

● Visualize the process with the hierarchy

● Use the hierarchy to navigate pages

Energize change

with new thinking



●How can you get production back online faster after downtime?

●Rapidly sort and filter alarms to identify the root cause of disruptions

● Visualize alarms with the hierarchy

● Use the hierarchy to filter

Energize change

with new thinking



●How make information available for maintenance staff?

●Diagnose maintenance issues remotely with integrated PAC

diagnostics

● In built equipment for diagnostics

Energize change

with new thinking



●Equipment design let’s you think about your SCADA

system in a new way

● Operators can easily navigate the process

● Rapidly sort and filter to identify the root cause of disruptions

● Diagnose maintenance issues remotely with integrated PAC diagnostics

Energize change

with new thinking


Drive Standards with Equipment

●Equipment Editor

● Equipment Instances

(hierarchy)

● Equipment Types

(templates)

●Build once and replicate

●Retrofit onto existing


Standardize Configuration

●Standardize configuration to deliver

consistency, both within and across

projects

●Access data using equipment.item

Equipment is everywhere

Rapid, simple configuration

Mining.Feeder.Ready


Implementation of a motor


PAC Diagnostics


Equipment = Simplified Configuration

●Configure your project in 3 easy steps:

● Create your project (from a starter project)

● Create a piece of equipment (using equipment editor)

● Display the equipment on a page (using graphics library)

How can our engineers deliver more in less time?

How can our operators visualize and navigate the SCADA system

to get the information they need?


Visualize Your Process

●New modern inbuilt templates

●Designed for wide-screen

resolutions (16:9)

● 1366x768 (Laptop)

● 1920x1080 (Desktop)

●Graphics canvas size same

as equivalent tab style for

easy upgrade

● e.g. SwX 1366x768 same canvas as tab 1024x768


Improved Navigation

●Operators can now choose to navigate using

● Process hierarchy of equipment instances

● Plant menu defined in project

●Including page specific commands & menu

● Tabs of recently opened pages

●Tree view and Tabs new library graphics

● Easily used with an existing project


Re-designed Header

Alarm icons (shortcuts) for

Active, Unacknowledged,

Disabled, Hardware, SOE

and Sound

Alarm counts for all

alarms, unacknowledged

alarms and disabled

Slider to extend Alarm

Banner viewable area at

Enhanced Alarm View

● Equipment filtering

● Flexible grid layout

● Column resize

● Column position

● Column sorting

● Alarm counts

● Historical views

● Summary

● SOE
