User Manual

Performance features
SICLIMAT X is open thanks to:
• The use of standards
• Documented interfaces
• Use of standardized communications interfaces, such as:
TCP/IP, Ethernet, PROFIBUS, OPC, LON
Ready for the future thanks to:
• Modular expandability
• Client/server architecture
• Ensuring downward compatibility (automation devices since 976 with LS300 B)
• Mastering large data volumes using the "Dynamic-Change-Of-State (DCOS)
principle"
Simple thanks to:
• Graphical user interfaces with menu-based operation for all system functions
• Fast access to important system functions
• Event-controlled to the associated plant operating images for faster operational
intervention
Operationally secure thanks to:
• Use of industrial standards
• Autonomous partial components
• Detailed password protection and logging
• Self-monitoring of the components among one another
• Use of proven blocks from comprehensive standard libraries
In the system, the Server X-OS with the operator stations and automation stations
represent one unit. The user views the plant via the operator station and receives a
tailored, object-oriented view without the need to know where the individual functions
operate. The communications technology is not only used to link the individual system
components, but rather integrate the system homogenously in existing office
communications.
Automation level
The automation stations SICLIMAT AS meet all automation and optimization tasks
autonomously and reliably through standardized function blocks for supply technology
and other technical building plants.
The modular software block from a standardized library can be freely combined
depending on need to meet customer requirements and outfitted with necessary
operating parameters, e.g. for:
• Complex process controls
• Meshed control circuits
• Alarm recognition
• Local operation
• Energy saving optimization functions
• Peer-to-peer communication
