XSCADA uses a variety of software and hardware tools that enables industrial companies to:
-
Monitor collect and process information flows;
-
Manage and control machines and devices such as valves, pumps, etc. that are associated with the HMI software( human-machine interface).
-
Recording evens in “.log” files.
In the main XSCADA architectures, data from the sensors are sent to PLCs ( programmable logic controllers) or RTUs (remote terminal units), which in turn send information to computers with XSCADA software. XSCADA analyzes and displays the data so that operators and other staff can reduce defective products and improve the efficiency in the production process.
Effective SCADA systems such as XSCADA contribute significantly to saving time and resources both in the short and long term and are nowadays standard for every effective manufacturing enterprise;
