The demand for integrating information deriving from plant floor automated production systems with enterprise managerial levels, production analysis and purchase order management is becoming more widespread.
Today Scada/HMI systems are called upon to be a “bridge” between machine data, data processing centers, Quality Control, administration and sales offices. One information flow managed in realtime with efficiency and performance improvements guaranteed.
Generally many complications occur when using additional plug-in modules or complicated scripts or external code with solutions that are usually complicated or expensive to install and use in order to get this type of operation on the road.
For many years Movicon has been offering users interconnection technology for simple and integrated relational databases, available for any realtime process data integration need with high level relational databases, in read, write or read-write.
This functionality is available directly from the properties of each single TAG (variable) declared in the Movicon projects. By means of using the "RealTime ODBC I/O Link" property group you will be able to make project information available to external databases, exploiting the powerful ODBC Manager integrated within Movicon. In this way, information (also linked to the PLC) will be made transparent to the managerial DB system, without needing add on modules, options or resorting to script.
This solution makes you realize why the Movicon 11 Scada/HMI platform has been designed thinking to the future of modern automation, offering solution at zero costs that are difficult to find in other competitive products.
