Opal Software for SimSCADA

Opal Software SimSCADA

<= span style=3D'font-family:Arial;color:blue'>SimSCADA simulates SCADA I/O on a massive scale, allowing for complete simulation of the entire field complement of t= he largest of SCADA systems, via the native protocols they support. Opal Softw= are developed the concept of using a “plug-compatible” simulation of all field I/O as a means of testing and commissioning SCADA systems and pro= viding training for end users. SimSCADA product arose out of this concep= t, and is today providing a comprehensive testing and training platform for many S= CADA system users around the world. SimSCADA operates from an underlying data= base of the telemetry system being simulated. This database can also act as a da= ta marshalling area for SCADA data, and makes possible the development of reporting, configuration and data export tools to provide a complete package for testing, commissioning and configuring new and existing SCADA systems. = SimSCADA was developed to:

1. Provide a means of thoroughly testing new SCADA systems, = by revealing stability and performance problems that cannot be identified by simple functional testing, before the cutover phase begins.

2. Provide a means of testing existing SCADA systems which a= re being expanded or upgraded, or to test the systems under extreme load conditions.

3. Reduce the time taken to perform cutover, by testing the validity of the data migration from the old SCADA system to the new SCADA system.

4. Eliminate or significantly reduce the need for field based point-to-point testing, by providing a bench equivalent of the entire field I/O, thus allowing for large cost savings on new SCADA implementation proje= cts.

5. Allow the easy production of all commissioning sheets and other reporting requirements for cut in of new and existing sites.

6. Provide a low cost but comprehensive simulation system for operator training and proof of concept during prototyping.

Photon engineering (= FRED)for optic= al engineering design

= FRED is an advanced opt= ical engineering software program capable of simulating the propagation of light through virtually any optical/mechanical system. FRED has= two methods of propagating light, through either standard = raytracing or a Gaussian beam decomposition algorithm to propagate coherent optical fields. FRED has been under development for over 10 years and curr= ently contains approximately 400,000 lines of C++ code, by adding Optimization capability, FRED OPTIMUM represents a revolutionary virtual work= bench

PROFACE= The Easy Way to Interface

Overview:=

As we a= re authorized local distributor of = Pro-face who with over 35 years of experience and is recognized as the world lea= der in graphic operator interfaces, Industrial PC's, automation software and is famous for high performance and reliability products. Their AGP3000 series integrate data presentation wit= h user input to save space, simplify usage and eliminate user error. In the more and more interconnected worlds of global industrial, building and ho= me automation, Pro-face recognizes the importance of connectivity and usability anywhere in the world. Pro-face has built its reputation by communic= ating easily with the most popular PLC’s, motion controllers, and sensors from around the world. In addition, Pro-face is committed to providing products that conform to international safety standards, and can be successfully integrated, easily operated, and readi= ly supported anywhere in the world.

Pro-face has redefined the HMI operator terminal as t= he command center of the production site, giving operators insight into processes and putting control and communication at their fingertips. Putt= ing the HMI at the center of production makes complex processes easier to understand and easier to control. As world's No.1 PLC and Logic terminals (LT) manufacturer with such technology Machine Builders and System Integr= ators could reduce cost, time to almost 50% than legacy PLC plus HMI. It also provides easily variables management within a touch. Their industrial PC's reliabilit= y and embedded information security make it possible for any applications where= you need either industrial, heavy duty, non stop work stations for even non industrial applications that are practically unlimited due to the vertical increasing and continuous demand on information technology applications m= ake this industry become an important area. By the enhancement took place by replacing standard HDD's with SSD's make their PC even worth for more tough and harsh environments. During its history Proface has been a leader in developm= ent of new protocols such as the flex based AGP controller which allows sending more than 1000 tags to HMI's for distances up to 200 m so users can benefit from having remote monitor= ing and controlling in harsh environments process zones and even via Ethernet= . As one of global leaders in CANOpen the new hot technology in embedded world that reduce and ease application building and saves both money and TTM with great ROI. These R&D centers are locate= d in Japan, Canada, and Europ= e.

GP-Pro EX Editor=

Powerful HMI editing software GP-Pro EX was developed with usability as a top priority, and offers huge improvements for both the developer and the terminal end-user. This editor includes many great new tools for creating great interfaces, in a development environment that maximizes design efficiency. This screen editor comes with a library of o= ver thousands of high-quality graphics, or “Parts,” created to ma= ke it easier than ever to create operator screens. In addition, GP-Pro EX co= mes with many illustrated image parts, so users can make appealing screens for their products to stand out from the competition. These “Parts̶= 1; are frequently used design objects such as buttons, lamps, displaying/keyboarding of data numerical/alphanumeric and graphs. Symbolic international symbols that are easily understood around the world. GP Pro= EX the "all-in-one" Software; screen creation software for new generat= ions of HMI, API and PC enhancem= ent is continuous that it includes 3-D Switches, lights, buttons. This software powerful package also includes Alarm management, Rec= ipes management, Data sampling. = Graph management with historic logging data, Calendar, Password management. Multi-language management,= Multi PLC's protocols simultaneously (4), Compatibility of projects developed w= ith GP Pro PBIII, No limit on variables. Ladder Logic program that is IEC6113= 1-3 standards based integrated with screen management, Simulation, and more….

GP-Pro SERVER

The real time plant floor production software = tool package that utilizes factory automation in dynamic environment that allow both machine control and production optimization= by automated, dynamic variables editing, controlling and archiving, this software as the core for automation management would diminish burden huma= n mistakes. the system can simply integrate in legacy PLC's (RTU= 's) data collection and variables easy management inhibit the need to reprogr= am PLC, the collected data can be written into any Data Base (MS Acess,SQL,Oracle, ETC) this allow easy integrate into client existing system. The speed of performance is based on the fact that it us= es group symbol and optimizes devices cache. Information security is unbeata= ble as the coded information is property; Safety in automation is utilized as= it is using real time PRO-Server run time.= using OPC server – client configuration allow building a SCADA system, ease of operation make it easily incorporate with ERP/MES . for detailed information go to www.proface.eu
