<strong>DESIGO</strong> INSIGHT OPEN<br />
SCADA technology<br />
INSIGHT OPEN is a modern integration platform for direct connection to the<br />
management level which uses vendor-neutral visualization <strong>system</strong>s based on<br />
SCADA technology. SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) <strong>system</strong>s<br />
are software products from the field of industrial <strong>automation</strong>, and can be used to<br />
connect various <strong>automation</strong> <strong>system</strong>s using a variety of device drivers.<br />
SCADA technology is ideal for connecting stand-alone third-party <strong>system</strong>s or open<br />
<strong>automation</strong> and field buses, where the emphasis is on operation and monitoring<br />
and reliable cross-disciplinary interconnection is not required. Vertical connections<br />
are implemented with communication cards or <strong>system</strong>-specific interfaces plugged<br />
directly into a management <strong>system</strong> PC. INSIGHT OPEN makes use of the<br />
technological potential of Citect, a leading SCADA <strong>system</strong> supplied by<br />
CiTechnologies Pty. Ltd., Australia.<br />
INSIGHT OPEN is an adjunct to the <strong>DESIGO</strong> INSIGHT management station and<br />
provides the following functions for the integrated third-party <strong>system</strong> or device:<br />
Functions in INSIGHT OPEN<br />
• Graphical operation of the plant and the<br />
process.<br />
• Alarm display and operation.<br />
• Dynamic trend curves and long-term data<br />
storage.<br />
• Topological data point operation in Object<br />
Viewer.<br />
• Log book and message archiving.<br />
• Alarm routing to message receivers.<br />
• Access protection.<br />
INSIGHT OPEN runs on Windows XP or Windows Vista on networks.<br />
INSIGHT OPEN provides an OPC client (OLE for process control) for the<br />
connection of third-party <strong>system</strong>s. This supports the specifications of Data Access<br />
Version 1.0a and Version 2.0.<br />
As a consequence, INSIGHT OPEN is an integral component of the process<br />
control <strong>system</strong> and subject to the same high expectations in respect of reliability<br />
and minimum downtime.<br />
The process values transferred from third-party <strong>system</strong>s to the <strong>DESIGO</strong> INSIGHT<br />
management station are mapped as SCADA process variables, or "variable tags".<br />
Special tags are used for alarm and trend variables:<br />
• Alarm tag, alarm process variable.<br />
• Trend tag, trend process variable.<br />
Unlike the data points in the <strong>building</strong> <strong>automation</strong> and control <strong>system</strong>, the process<br />
variables (tags) each contain one item of information only. Alarms and trend logs<br />
are SCADA objects which are generated by and calculated in the I/O server.<br />
Vendor-neutral protocols<br />
• BACnet.<br />
• LONWORKS.<br />
• KNX S-mode (EIB).<br />
Vendor-specific protocols, e.g.<br />
• SIPORT NT (access control).<br />
• AlgoRex (fire detection <strong>system</strong>).<br />
