Software design
During SCADA application build time, Vijeo Citect objects have to be dened and the data and data type
associated.
The following recommendations are provided to facilitate design, readability and re-use: -
Exchanges (gure below) are done via DDT variables (Standard Derived Data). -
Interchange le format XVM was chosen to manage the DDT variables type without needing to install the Unity -
tool on the station.
OFS server (OPC Factory Server) makes it possible to use Unity structured variables in unlocated format. -
The application is based on Genie and Super Genie objects.
The Super Genies has an advantage in comparison to Popup. It is a library object, it is not linked to the page or
to an application like popup. Super Genies from an application library can be reused easily by a new Vijeo Citect
project using function “Link Project”.
