The Basics of Web-enabled Automation
Web Enabled Automation- What is it?The word “automation” needs no definition, but what about “web enabled”? Web enabled means real time access to data and control virtually anytime and from anywhere it’s required. This is a very broad claim, and statements like this have been and are being made all the time. So what’s different now? To oversimplify a bit, we can now think in terms of merging the world of the “consumer Internet” (cheap, fast, readily available access to almost everything from anywhere at anytime) with the traditional automation world (expensive, proprietary, limited accessibility, islands of knowledge). Most importantly, this merging goes well beyond the “horizontal” integration of standard B2B and B2C implementations. Web enabled automation drives this real time accessibility “vertically” down to the level where things are actually being produced, ordered, shipped, tested, stocked, etc. Web enabled automation can also be thought of as “visible automation”.
What will web enabled automation do for me? Why do I need it?So what can we do with this accessibility? We can now check production data on a critical process, machine, or orders in real time, without waiting on batch reports. Or, have a system notify a technician that it needs “help” via e-mail to a PC, PDA, or phone. Or, have a system linked in real-time to suppliers and customers to handle restocking or shipping. Or, collect data from many distributed machines or processes in real-time, analyze it, and send new optimized parameters back, all using the existing Internet/Intranet infrastructure. We now have a distributed, adaptive, closed loop factory.
OK, so some good, interesting, and useful things are possible. But why would anyone need this kind of access? Because all customers are coming to expect “real-time” deliveries
of product and information. As individual consumers we’re being conditioned to expect this through our experiences with on-line ordering, status checking, and next day or same day deliveries of merchandise. Even more importantly, the competition will do it. And, once they have implemented web enabled automation successfully they’ll be able to satisfy the customer more quickly and at a lower cost than non-web enabled companies. That’s the real bottom line.
A few examples may help illustrate the possibilities and benefits of this technology. First, consider a customer who wants to link to a supplier’s production system for electronic processing of orders and shipment tracking. The customer is trying to cut his lead times, so he wants “live” production data from the supplier plant. If the supplier’s system is based on data processing that is periodically batched (monthly, weekly, daily) then giving the customer on-line access to the supplier’s system is not enough. The customer will be getting “data” whenever he wants it, but it will be stale. However, if the supplier can link real-time data coming direct from the production floor, then the customer will have live access to current data. This can be a competitive advantage for the supplier by helping his customer increase throughput and lower costs.
If this is a two way link the supplier could even adjust production flow in real time based on incoming customer demand data, resulting in optimized inventory levels.
Next, consider a machine used to drill and tap holes. A lot of information may be available in the machine controller about total production time on a particular tool or number of parts produced. What if this data could be easily analyzed and used to automatically request tool and machine maintenance or replacement parts based on tool failure or, even better, in advance of a failure based on tool wear data or production time? What if the machine could directly e-mail the maintenance department or machine vendor to schedule replacement parts and installation? Could this capability be used to increase uptime and reduce costs? More than likely the answer is “yes”.

Technicians can monitor equipment and
respond to problems more quickly
Support & Service
With better information available from anywhere at any
time, your support & service staff can be more efficientSales
Better information about manufacturing
schedules and inventory levels enable new

Now, take the same machine from the previous example and collect data related to part parameters and/or production. (Note that we could take this data directly from the machine controller or collect it using additional sensors that are I/O independent with the existing machine controller.) In addition to making this data available as a web page (accessible from any PC with a standard browser), let’s send it to a server PC (located in the shop office or across the world). Now we can analyze this data from any location worldwide to do Statistical Process Control using standard PC based software for process/quality reporting and improvement. If the software is capable of making process adjustments based on simulations of the production environment, these new parameters can be sent back to the machine to take effect in real time. Cost reduction possibilities here could come from reduced scrap and rework: better quality in real time.
How Web-enabled Automation WorkNow that we’re convinced of the benefits of web enabled automation, what pieces and parts are required to put this technology to work? The basic parts required for web based data acquisition and control are :
1) An interface to the machine/process/building/”thing” to be monitored or controlled via the web (network) connection.
2) A web server to make the desired display and/or control pages available to the remote browser, and
3) A data service or interface to handle exchanging data between the local “thing” (server) and the remote system (client).
For remote viewing of the data and/or web pages, the only requirement is a standard browser interface. For applications requiring SPC, optimization, or enterprise level software to exchange real time data with the “thing”, a remote server PC and a compatible data exchange service are required.

TouchView
Feature DetailsWeb Browser based engineering Unique to TouchView all engineering, database configuration, graphics building (DRAW) and software administration (download, start and restart remote nodes) is performed using a standard Web browser.
Engineering Tool independent of software version installed at customers’ site. An ordinary web browser is the engineering tool! Engineers & technicians always have the right version of software needed.
Distributed ArchitectureSCADA nodes run independent of any other node. Each SCADA node communicates to automation equipment using communication drivers supplied with TouchView.
Centralized Database ServerThe Project Node is a centralized database server of configuration data. A copy of the database and graphics of all SCADA nodes is kept on the Project Node.
Enhanced Security Users can be assigned various privileges to restrict display and data access. TouchView uses the Area of Responsibility concept to restrict changes to data.
Vector-based GraphicsVector-based graphics provide smaller file sizes and faster downloads. Import AutoCAD DXF, Bitmaps, JPEGs and GIFs. AutoCAD DXF files can be imported, edited, filled and animated.
ZOOM graphics in Run time Vector Graphics allow users to zoom in to magnify any display up to a power of 8x.
Video and AudioWeb-enabled Video cameras allow operators and users to monitor equipment and facilities using the TouchView client. Live full-motion Video, audio and Windows Media are viewed in same Graphic display as Trends, Alarms. Pushbuttons and Live Data.
ActiveXTouchView uses an ActiveX control running inside Internet Explorer to provide real-time, dynamic data and graphics with full animation.
Thin Client TouchView provides a “true” Thin Client interface for PDA, Pocket PCs and others not wishing to install our ActiveX Client plug-in. The Thin Client interface is an alternate to the full animation Client. No special software or operating system is required.
Global databaseThe “tags” and real-time data from all SCADA nodes in a project are viewable on all nodes.
Email notification of Alarms Email notification of alarms is a standard feature in TouchView. No third party software is required. Tags can be individually selected to generate an email, assigned recipient email address or use global email recipients. Alarms can be “acknowledged” via a reply email.
Pager, Wireless PCS and Cell Phone text messaging for Alarms and EventsPagers, wireless PCS and Cell Phones that can receive text messages can also be used for notification of alarms and events. No third party software is required. Tags can be individually selected to generate an message to a specific recipient address or use global recipients.
Schedule Alarm Email and Page recipients by Shift, Day of Week, and HolidaysSchedule who receives Alarm email and text message pages based on Time of day, Shift, Day of week, and Holiday schedules.
IntroductionUsing a standard Web browser, you can view and control automation equipment used in industrial, manufacturing, process and building automation systems. Data is displayed in real-time with dynamically updated graphics using full-motion animation. TouchView adds Internet connectivity to old and new automation hardware.

Scheduled Reports Scheduled Reports include Shift, Daily and Monthly reports that are automatically generated from the Real-time data. Users & Operators can View the current and previous reports using a web browser. Reports are optionally emailed and printed automatically by the TouchView SCADA node. The output of the Scheduled Reports can be copied and pasted into EXCEL, WORD, and other general-purpose office applications as a formatted table or spreadsheet.
Redundant SCADA Nodes & ComportsIf the Primary fails, the Backup SCADA Node will begin communications to the automation devices and Web Browser clients will be redirected to the Backup. Redundant Comports enable redundant communications path to Devices.
Data Logging, Historical and Real-Time Trending Each tag is logged to a separate file on the SCADA node hard drive; this allows “new tags” to be added to a Historical Trend display without losing history of other tags. A “Real-Time Only” trend reduces disk space requirements.
Alarm Handling Package TouchView provides a notification system to inform operators of process and equipment status including summaries, logs, sorting by priority, alarm response graphic, text messaging to pagers and cell phones, email notification of alarms and Text-to-Speech Alarm Annunciation.
Display Groups Local SCADA nodes support a non-web browser version intended for standalone architectures and control room users.
Recipe Function Recipes provide an easy method for operators and users to change the value of hundreds of settings.
Scheduler The Scheduler provides control and setpoint changes based on time and date. Lights, Fans, and HVAC equipment are turned on and off based on the time, day of week and date. The Scheduler is also used in process control and manufacturing applications.
DDE, OPC and ODBC interfaces DDE, NetDDE, ODBC and OPC are Microsoft communications standards to exchange data with your automation equipment, spreadsheets, databases or 3 Party software packages.
Scripts using TclScripts in TouchView are based on the open source programming language Tcl and allow users to develop customized displays, calculations and reports.
Database Import / ExportThe database export and import to EXCEL allow users to create and modify Tags and Blocks in a spreadsheet using copy, paste, edit and other EXCEL tools. Databases can be imported from other HMI packages. Tags and Nodes can be imported from other TouchView Projects to allow aggregation of multiple facilities into a larger Project or to scale down and make a node independent.
Email custom reports, logs and messagesTouchView will email reports and logs generated with Scripts and Pushbutton Key macro.
Customize Toolbars with Icons and animated buttons Use Microsoft Icon files (*.ico) to build tool bars. These can be imported from any application. Animate Toolbars buttons built in DRAW to provide flashing, color change, text changes or any animation.
System Log Monitor who connects to the project and SCADA nodes with web browser.
Centralized Logs Log real-time data, alarms, and operator actions from all SCADA nodes to a central ODBC compliant database including: Analog Data Log, Discrete Data Log, System Log, Alarm Log and Operator Action Log.
HTML Reports Generate HTML Reports using menu-based queries of Centralized ODBC Logs based on Date, Time, Tag, Node including: Analog Data Log, Discrete Data Log, System Log, Alarm Log and Operator Action Log. Copy and paste these html reports to EXCEL, Word, etc.
Network ArchitectureNetworking is built into the design of WebAccess. The basic components of WebAccess are:
SCADA Node - which connects to Automation Hardware and makes data available to network.
Project Node - which is a centralized database server used by the configuration tool. Thin Clients use the Project Node to view static snapshots of animated graphics.
Clients - Which display real-time data with animated graphics and allow operators to change values, acknowledge alarms and control in real-time. Clients connect directly to a SCADA node to get real-time data.
Project Node - System RequirementsOperating System: Windows 2000, Windows XP (Professional and Server), or Windows 2003 with IIS (Internet Information Server) installed. (See note 1 below.)
Hardware: Pentium III, Pentium IV, Celeron or Athlon processors are recommended for the Project Node and SCADA nodes.
SCADA Nodes - System RequirementsOperating System: Windows 2000, Windows XP (Professional and Server) or Windows 2003. (See note 1 below.)
Hardware: Pentium III, Pentium IV, or Athlon processors are recommended for the Project Node and SCADA nodes. If your project requires significant Data logging to hard drive, SCSI, SAN and NAIS technology should be considered or multiple SCADA nodes. The Disk Controller speed is the limiting factor in Data Logging to hard drives.
Client - System RequirementsOperating System: Windows 2000, Windows XP Professional are highly recommended. Windows 2000, XP and 2003 Server also is supported.
Hardware: Pentium, Celeron, Athlon or better required by clients.

In addition, Advantech ADAMView features block sequence arrangement functions that determine the order of execution of blocks in a task. Users can change the execution order of the blocks according to the needs of the system.
OPC For Connecting and Integrating SystemYou may already have some devices other than Advantech ADAM modules in your plant or system. Advantech ADAMView leverages the industry OPC standard to provide the plug-and-play connectivity with your devices such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs). Most of major PLC vendors provide the OPC servers for their hardware. With OPC, you can easily create a human-machine interface (HMI) application that encompasses all your equipment, not just Advantech devices.
TCP/IP Networking for Easy Remote AccessAdvantech ADAMView networking capability allows a computer in the control room to display data being collected by computers on the factory floor, or vice versa. This means that data and field process can be viewed or monitored in real time from anywhere on your network. Data Acquisition software implements a network system that supports peer-to-peer communication using TCP/IP protocol. It allows network status to be logged and viewed, for complete network monitoring and maintenance.

ADAM Data Acquisition Software
IntroductionWe noticed that many users applied the ADAM Data Acquisition modules in small base projects. Because the cost ran higher than system hardware, Human Machine Interface software were never suitable for these projects. ADAMView, the ADAM Data Acquisition software, is especially designed for low-volume ADAM projects. It provides 150 physical points database, ADAM Drivers, and OPC Server for all monitoring and control function. In brief, ADAMView is cost-effective and simple SCADA software for ADAM I/O series.

Feature Details Cont.Powerful Basic Script Language to Customize Your NeedsAdvantech ADAMView is easy to use, but does not sacrifice flexibility. It fully integrates BasisScript language in its kernel to meet your specific needs. Over 600 commands are available to perform almost any function you can imagine, including calculations, reading and writing files, DDE, and ODBC. It allows you to access and share data with other applications, such as Microsoft Access and Microsoft Excel. With BasisScript scripting language, it allows you to reuse existing codes and build your applications faster and easier.
Graphics ToolboxAdvantech ADAMView’s graphic toolbox provides an object-based development environment that allows you to create your operator display panel intuitively. You can create a panel that is similar to industrial process displays or test equipment. You can also attach a bitmap background to customize your display. The operator display allows you to monitor, supervise, and control your process during runtime. When complete, the panel can resemble indicators, numeric display, bar graphics, imported bitmaps, messages, analog meters, fixed texts, real-time trends, XY graphs and group boxes. Control objects include binary buttons, conditional buttons, menu buttons, numeric input, knobs and sliders. These objects can be controlled using a mouse or a keyboard. In addition, Advantech Data Acquisition software also provides graphic tools to draw rectangles, circles, segments, and polygons. These objects or cells can be linked to a tag value. They can change color according to the tag value. They can also be grouped together to make a single object. You can use them to draw pumps, valves or other industrial symbols. Advantech ADAMView also provide historical trending display that allows you to scroll backward/forward, go to a specific time, search a specific value, and convert historical data to a text file.
Open Architecture for Integrating Other ApplicationsCompany-wide access to your process data is essential in today’s competitive business environment. Advantech ADAMView builds in an open real-time data center. Using DDE or OLE automation, you can easily integrate your application with other applications. For database connectivity, there are embedded ODBC functions for SQL access to a wide range of databases.
Plug-and-Play Connectivity Through OPC Industry StandardUnlike Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE), OPC is specifically designed for process control. OPC eliminates many of the limitations inherent in DDE, such as performance and data type. Advantech ADAMView also provides MODbus OPC servers for devices that support MODbus protocol, such as Advantech’s ADAM-5511. Through the OPC interface, Advantech ADAMView can access ADAM-5511 real-time data. The list of devices and networks that are supported by OPC drivers is long and growing.

IntroductionOPC (OLE for process control) is a standardized interface for industrial device servers. An OPC server driver lets devices, such as ADAM and other I/O devices, communicate with a wide range of HMI/SCADA software packages residing on a host. Advantech OPC server drivers conform to OPC standards, and provide immediate compatibility between Advantech I/O systems and a very wide range of application software systems. Any software system with OPC client capabilities can access Advantech OPC server drivers. Advantech OPC server drivers are available for many Advantech devices, including ADAM-4000 series, ADAM-5000 series, ADAM-6000 series and ADAM-8000 series.
Advantech OPC server drivers were developed using Intellution’s OPC Toolkit V7.10. Advantech OPC server drivers provide the interface and communications protocol between your process control software and ADAM I/O series. The following features outline the fl exibility and ease-of-use of all Advantech OPC server drivers:
- Complies with OPC standards.
- Uses OLE Automation technology.
- Event-driven architecture.
- Integrated with FIX Dynamics.
Advantech OPC server drivers consist of the following OLE components:
- The I/O server (the core executable program):The I/O server maintains the driver’s channel, device, and datablock objects, performs all required functions for communicating with the process hardware, and exposes the methods and properties to other applications.
- The I/O driver Power Tool:The Power Tool accesses the I/O server and lets you view and modify channel, device, and datablock properties.
