Scada alarms take precedence
15 Jan 2000
Lee-Dickens' new Sitewatch NT Scada software features immediate, clear access to alarm displays. The front screen of the package has a number of non-overlapping panels that are used for system alarms and events, operator log-on, screen navigation and mimic displays.
This display area provides both graphic and textual indication of alarms, with single key, drag and drop navigation to alerts, either by clicking on the red alarm icon or highlighted text.
A separately-viewed alarm summary page features real-time updates, four different alarm lists, colour-coded alarm priorities and a unified alarm list, allowing viewing of inter-related alerts from equipment on screen.
With their 32-bit Windows NT operating system, the Sitewatch master stations can be configured for standalone operation with single or multiple displays.
