Stages of development of an application for data acquisition and visualization in industrial control systems
Traditional SCADA softwares
1. CONFIGURING
device connections, parameters, ranges, alarm limits, etc.
2. DEVELOPMENT OF TEMPLATES
(of typical system objects)
for visualization of various types of monitored parameters and equipment
25% OF THE PROJECT TIME
Creating templates in traditional
SCADA systems is a laborious process. Mistakes may occur, because templates are created manually
THE STAGE IS EXCLUDED
You don't need to create templates: SmartICS has a built-in automated widget library in accordance with Plug & Play technology
3. LINKING TEMPLATES AND TAGS
Replicating templates, linking tags to template instances, creating the required set of visualization pages and dashboards
35% OF THE PROJECT TIME
Performed manually
Mistakes may occur
TIME SAVING OF
A PROJECT STAGE — 2-7 TIMES
You do not need to manually link tags and configure custom pages: when you add a new device, dashboards are created automatically with all tags linked to the corresponding widgets
With SmartICS, you will develop an application for data acquisition and visualization in industrial control systems 3-4 times faster than with traditional SCADA softwares
TIME SAVING OF A PROJECT STAGE — 2-3 TIMES
Additional functionality is loaded automatically, you only have to configure roles and user rights
5% OF THE PROJECT TIME
Additional configuration takes time
4. IMPLEMENTATION AND CONFIGURATION OF
ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONALITY
History, event log, graphs, etc. Configuring user roles and rights
TIME SAVING OF A PROJECT STAGE — 3-6 TIMES
Due to the automated interface builder, full testing is not required: only the presence of all necessary system parameters is checked
No errors occur
Retesting is often not required
30% OF THE PROJECT TIME
Developer experience is required
Mistakes may occur
Retesting after correcting comments and errors
5. TESTING
Testing the system, correcting comments and errors, retesting
SAVING LABOR COSTS BY 3-4 TIMES
100% OF THE AVERAGE TIME
FOR AN APPLICATION
DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
Stages of development of a top level automated process control system project
1. CONFIGURING
device connections, parameters, ranges, alarm limits, etc.
2. DEVELOPMENT OF TEMPLATES
(typical project objects) for visualization of various types of monitored parameters and facilities
3. LINKING TEMPLATES AND TAGS
Replicating templates, linking tags to template instances, creating the required set of memo pages
4. IMPLEMENTATION AND CONFIGURATION OF
ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONALITY
History, event log, graphs, etc. Configuring user roles and rights
5. TESTING
Testing the system, correcting comments and errors, retesting
