V7.20, Vijeo Citect software
provides a more holistic view of processes through the addition of support for
the Microsoft Windows 7 operating system. Providing a control system that
supports the latest Microsoft operating systems, Vijeo Citect V7.20 and has additional
security enhancements, such as server authentication, which were introduced to
provide an extra layer of protection to networked control systems.
The software
also expanded surveillance and remote monitoring requirements by adding the
ability to closely monitor critical processes, high-value equipment and
strategic production materials through the integration of live video feed from
Pelco cameras. The surveillance features allow operators to view video directly
on SCADA screens, control the camera movement and link control system events,
such as alarms in secured areas, with the surveillance of those areas all while
keeping track of control system variables.
The software
diminishes the need to interrupt or restart the system when alarm and trend
changes need to be made, adding the flexibility to roll-out modifications
progressively and in a controlled manner. Server-side online changes make it
possible to add, change or remove elements from alarm, trend and report servers
without re-loading, allowing any unchanged alarms, trends or reports to
continue to function without interruption.
Vijeo Citect V7.20 SCADA software
also offers operators access to improved real-time operational intelligence
through extended tag information. With the addition of tag extensions, each
variable tag now has richer context information with a collection of functional
elements, each of which contains value, quality and time-stamp information as a
collection of items. The addition of quality and time-stamped information
facilitates a better understanding of how the system is changing and more
accurate decision-making data.
