Scadaflex offers you many features that make your automation efficient and effective. Starting from the design of the software, through to network technology, simple project configuration and the diverse connection possibilities.
Scadaflex is not only a system suited to a wide range of different requirements, it also combines all manner of different functions in a single tool and in one single development environment. It can be use for many different tasks such as control and visualization, communicating and exchanging data with other applications and monitoring operations as well as an optimization tool to increase productivity and efficiency. All of this can be done with just a few mouse clicks. Scadaflex will run on any of the current Windows operating systems. It supports over 300 communication protocols as standard, and our system engineers will write additional protocols on request at any time. Scadaflex also exchanges data with other applications and links directly to the ERP level. All this, needless to say, is carried out on a network, configured for multi-user operation, across all departments in a company, and conforms to the US FDA 21 CFR Part 11 standard.
An energy substation automation system involves coordinating a large number of different components in an intelligent way and without risk of error. These components include field devices, protection equipment, servers, routers, log printers, gateways and time synchronization computers. In other words we have to enable connections to all manner of different devices, while ensuring that processes can be guaranteed to run smoothly and providing precision monitoring. The software you use to maintain your overview and control over switching stations and power plants makes a big difference. Software is especially important if you are working in a sensitive sector, concerned with minimizing maintenance overheads or maintaining customer satisfaction.
Scadaflex can be expanded in a modular fashion and will grow with your requirements, with flexible expansions, thereby guaranteeing the security of your investment. The functionalities of all expansions are accessible via the user interface.
Scadaflex features unparalleled modern network technology with capabilities such as distributed client/server structures. This gives users options to decentralize their automation systems which, previously, they may never have thought possible.
•Decentralized data recording and administration
•Remote administration for remote project configuration and remote maintenance
•Interruption-free redundancy at the click of a mouse
•Automatic distribution of project changes throughout the network
Simple project configuration by means of standardized and freely selectable parameters.
•Time-saving project configuration by means of an intuitive graphical user interface
•A system with layers of visualization for a clear overview, even in complex equipment screens
•Flexible project configuration through unlimited expansion of variables
•Freely selectable wizards for support with repeated tasks
Scadaflex supports distributed engineering. Several people can work on a project together at the same time, either in a local network or via remote access. Functions that are currently being worked on are blocked for other users.
Scadaflex offers a flexible multi-driver structure to connect varied target systems. To this end, there is a multitude of open, standardized interfaces for the exchange of data in all directions. Scadaflex currently features over 300 communication protocols. In Scadaflex, you simply select the required communication protocol from the Scadaflex driver list and configure it as an easy-to-read dialog. They generally support the whole functionality of the hardware and thus enable unlimited access to the process.
