Management level
Higher-level tasks affecting the overall operation of the building are processed at the
management level. In addition to the storage of process values and events, these tasks
also include processing functions for optimization and analysis and the printing of these
processes in report form.
The fully graphical, object-oriented user interface is designed with the user in mind and
tailored to the specific tasks associated with operating the building, e.g.
• Display of messages, alarms, operating modes, reports, plant graphics, trends
• Editing of messages and alarms
• Message distribution table to define the output channels for messages and alarms
• Reporting, archiving and analysis of documented procedures
• Higher-level operation and monitoring, switching and positioning
• Control, calculation and display of statistical information
• Monitoring of distributed sites
• Rationalization through communication with other IT systems within the company
• Message line and alarm line for the display of messages and alarms on the operator
station
• Message report format used to print alarms and messages on the printer, with a
header and footer for each page.
• Relay control for audible alarms to indicate hazardous system states.
The plant is monitored and operated by use of the animated plant graphics.
After the project design phase, a complete, hierarchically structured set of automatically
generated plant graphics is available, which can be used to manage the whole plant.
Unauthorized operation is prevented by the allocation of user-specific access rights.
In addition to these automatically generated plant graphics, the Plant Graphics Editor,
GEDIT (not part of this software package) can be used to create animated graphics for
individual operation and monitoring (freely defined plant graphics).
