SuperView - Mini SCADA Package


Description

 

Superview is a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) software package for use with Modbus RTU networked devices. Ideally suited for smaller scale SCADA applications, where ease-of-use and speed of development are important factors. The user can create windows with images of the process and freely insert dynamic objects such as text, buttons, chart displays, etc. Additional features include data logging with historic data recall, event logs, alarm monitoring and e-mail sending. Supplied with ready-to-run templates for DigiRail and FieldLogger I/O.

Using SuperView

 

Superview is a Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) software dedicated to operate with Modbus equipment. Fully configurable software, it allows the user to create their own supervision forms using images, texts, buttons and graphs from data accessible in the Modbus network. The following Figure shows the Superview application topology.

 

SuperView Functions

 

Supervision Forms

Supervision forms are the core feature of a Superview application. Each form displays a different view of the supervised process. There can be an unlimited number of forms. Objects can be dragged onto the form and placed in the appropriate position. The following types of objects are available:

Alarm Monitoring

Superview can monitor the logged value of any physical tab, comparing it to the limits set. If the tag exceeds the limits, the following actions can be defined:

  • The computer plays a sound file.

  • A notification e-mail is sent (this action depends on an adequate setting of the service and on the availability of an e-mail server in the corporate network environment.
  • The value of a tag is changed. It allows an alarm event condition to result in an automatic action, as changing a parameter in a device in the network, or changing the value of a constant tag (for example, used to define the display of an image on the screen or not)

The following alarm conditions can be simultaneously monitored for each tag in the application.

  • Low value

  • Low low value
  • High value
  • High high value
  • The difference as compared to another tag is too high
  • The difference above the value of another tag is too high
  • The difference below the value of another tag is too high

Historic Log

The value of any Superview tag may be periodically logged in a computer’s file for later reference (such as a chart or table) or exported to other applications (Excel spreadsheets or PDF, for example). The historic log is an important feature in any supervisory system, because it allows for maintenance of information about the process for future reference, as well as to integrate these data with other systems within the company.

To use the historic log, the following settings are required:

  • Create and define a parameter for one or more historics.

  • Include a Historic Object in one of the application forms, defining its properties.
