SICLIMAT™ X
SIMATIC S7 interface for
SCADA systems S7-SCADA
Open data interface for the connection of SCADA systems to the SICLIMAT
automation stations based on the SIMATIC S7.
Use
The SIMATIC S7 SCADA interface is a convenient solution for the connection of
SCADA systems to SICLIMAT X.
The purpose of a SCADA system (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) is to
integrate various items of equipment irrespective of their manufacturers.
The SCADA system makes it possible to present the user with a uniform operator
interface and uniform functional scope. SCADA standardises the separation of the
automation level from the management level.
Unlike the SICLIMAT X management system, a SCADA system offers only a limited
range of functions, comprising signalling, operation & monitoring, trend logging and
archiving.
With the SCADA interface, it is also possible to connect other systems which access
the operating, monitoring and signalling data. These third-party systems may include,
for example:
Human-machine interfaces of all kinds (e.g. operator panels)
Office programs running under Microsoft Windows with integrated process data
Mimic diagrams controlled by another PLC
