4 System description 4.1 Visualisation system structure ________________________________________________________________ 4.1.3 Client/server system The client/server system is a classical SCADA application (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition). • A central server, IPC (controller) for data management (alarm, recipe, trend management) is typical of this application. • Operation and monitoring of the machine/system can be carried out via an optional number of client devices.
4 System description 4.2 System components ________________________________________________________________ 4.2 System components 4.2.1 Controller: "Controller-based Automation" (control technology version 3.x) Lenze offers a range of different controllers in cabinet and panel design. Depending on the application, the controllers are provided with different processors, panel sizes, and runtime modes. 4.2.
4 System description 4.2 System components ________________________________________________________________ 4.2.3 Runtime software The Industrial PC is the core of the visualisation system. To perform the tasks required, the Industrial PC requires the so-called "runtime software". The runtime software for instance comprises the operating system (Windows® CE).
4 System description 4.2 System components ________________________________________________________________ 4.2.3.2 "Visu" runtime software All visualisation applications are executed within a runtime environment (runtime). The licence required for this purpose depends on the hardware operating system. The "Visu" runtime software is not pre-installed on the Lenze Industrial PCs, but is loaded to the IPC together with the visualisation application.
4 System description 4.2 System components ________________________________________________________________ »VisiWinNET®« Compact CE This runtime system for Windows® CE systems only requires a small amount of memory space and is specially designed for systems with a lower processor power. Typical scopes of application are the machine-oriented operation and monitoring with low demands with regard to the visualisation. They are used in stand-alone applications and integrated control systems.
4 System description 4.2 System components ________________________________________________________________ »VisiWinNET®« Standard Client/Server (C/S) This runtime system for Windows® XP as client/server system offers the whole functional range of the »VisiWinNET®« standard. However, all information used commonly is managed centrally on one server. So-called "Terminal Clients" serve as clients.
4 System description 4.
4 System description 4.2 System components ________________________________________________________________ 4.2.3.3 "Visu" runtime software - licence information A licence is required for executing the "Visu" runtime software. The licence information indicates which runtime software version (Compact, Standard, etc.) may be used, how many clients are allowed to log on to a client/server system, and how many variables (power tags) can be displayed via the visualisation.
