The Ovation® Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition
(SCADA) Communication Server allows important information
from SCADA remote terminal units to be readily available to
the control system and the desktops of supervisors and managers
throughout the organization — enabling them to make faster,
more effective decisions.
SCADA systems are typically comprised of two basic components
— a remote terminal unit (RTU) and a master terminal
unit (MTU). The Ovation® SCADA Communication Server operates
as the master terminal unit, providing central monitoring
and control for your SCADA system. The Ovation® SCADA
Server seamlessly passes value and status information to and
from the Ovation® database. It also configures and monitors
RTUs; sends control commands to the RTUs; receives and reports
data, messages and alarms from RTUs; manages the status of
communication links to RTUs; and continually monitors failed
equipment and communication links, in an attempt to put the
failed piece back into operation.
SCADA Communication Server Features:
- Effective management of remote units controlling mission-critical
processes
- Interoperability with various remote terminal units
- Unified information through the Ovation® database
for efficient SCADA data management
- Optional dual redundant configuration for additional system
security
- Seamless integration with new or existing Ovation®
systems
- Continuous monitoring of equipment and communication links
- Supports both serial and Ethernet interfaces
