  • OPC DX Link Option for Kepserverex

    OPC DX Link Option for Kepserverex

    OPC DX Link Option for KEPServerEX Overview: OPC technology has been extremely successful at bridging the vertical communication gap between the plant floor and the control room. Using standards such as OPC Data Access (DA), hundreds of software applications have been written to gather data from a wide range of control systems using this simple Client/Server architecture. OPC DA did not, however, address the needs of integration and interoperability directly between devices. Historically there have been a number of high-level and low-level bus protocols, each one written to address the differing needs and uses of the devices they were intended to serve. Protocols such as PROFIBUS, DeviceNet, ControlNet, and many more, have been utilized in the past. Recently there has been a growing movement towards the use of Ethernet as an industrial communication backbone. Initially each of these respective bus specifications was redeveloped for use over Ethernet. The resulting PROFInet, Ethernet/IP, High-Speed Ethernet Fieldbus (HSE), and BACNET/IP provided a means for customers to move smoothly from their proprietary wiring schemes to Ethernet. However it didn't address the key issue of true Device-to-Device interoperability or more importantly Bus-to-Bus interoperability. While these new Ethernet based protocols could coexist on the same wire, there was still no way to get data from a PROFInet device directly into an Ethernet/IP device. Example using DX to route data between OPC Items in KEPServerEX Example of using DX to pull data from an OPC DA server and eXchange data (bi-directional) with an OPC DX server OPC DX: OPC Data Exchange (DX) was designed to address the needs of Device-to-Device and Bus-to-Bus interoperability by applying the same technologies currently used by desktop applications at the device level.

    Investigate M2M-Related Communication Standards That Exist on the Global Market Today

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Agder University Research Archive Investigate M2M-related communication standards that exist on the global market today by Aleksander Albretsen Thesis in partial fulfilment of the degree of Master in Technology in Information and Communication Technology Agder University College Faculty of Engineering and Science Grimstad Norway June 2006 Abstract Most M2M applications use well-known communication technologies to interconnect the devices. Even though they use well-known communication technologies there are no widely used and well-defined M2M standards regarding the data exchange (application layer). This thesis investigates and identifies M2M related communication standards that exist on the global market today, and are applicable for M2M standardisation. This thesis is limited to the following segments within M2M: Security, Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) and Utility Control. Today, and in the future, IP will play an important role within M2M. This thesis is therefore mainly focusing on standards that implement how to transfer the application layer using the IP-stack. M2M is defined in this thesis as an application with a central server communicating with end-devices through a gateway, using remote communication from server to gateway. The following standards are investigated and found applicable in one or more of the selected segments: CIP, MODBUS, LonWorks, KNX, DLMS/COSEM, M-BUS, SIA, M2MXML, OPC and ZigBee. Each of the standards is explained within the thesis. All standards are identified and categorised, and area of applications and proposed solutions are described. This thesis discusses the applicability regarding each segment, multiple services behind one gateway, bandwidth consumption, software update and interconnection of networks.

    Knowledge Discovery in the SCADA Databases Used for the Municipal Power Supply System Valery Kamaev1, Alexey Finogeev2, Anton Finogeev3, Sergey Shevchenko4 1Volgograd State Technical University, Volgograd, Russia, [email protected], 2Penza State University, Penza, Russia, [email protected], [email protected], 3National Technical University "Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute", Kharkiv, Ukraina, [email protected] Abstract. This scientific paper delves into the problems related to the develop- ment of intellectual data analysis system that could support decision making to manage municipal power supply services. The management problems of mu- nicipal power supply system have been specified taking into consideration modern tendencies shown by new technologies that allow for an increase in the energy efficiency. The analysis findings of the system problems related to the integrated computer-aided control of the power supply for the city have been given. The consideration was given to the hierarchy-level management decom- position model. The objective task targeted at an increase in the energy effi- ciency to minimize expenditures and energy losses during the generation and transportation of energy carriers to the Consumer, the optimization of power consumption at the prescribed level of the reliability of pipelines and networks and the satisfaction of Consumers has been defined. To optimize the support of the decision making a new approach to the monitoring of engineering systems and technological processes related to the energy consumption and transporta- tion using the technologies of geospatial analysis and Knowledge Discovery in databases (KDD) has been proposed. The data acquisition for analytical prob- lems is realized in the wireless heterogeneous medium, which includes soft- touch VPN segments of ZigBee technology realizing the 6LoWPAN standard over the IEEE 802.15.4 standard and also the segments of the networks of cellu- lar communications.

    A Cyber-Physical Machine Tools Platform Using OPC UA and Mtconnect

    A Cyber-Physical Machine Tools Platform using OPC UA and MTConnect Chao Liua, Hrishikesh Vengayila, Yuqian Lub, and Xun Xua* a Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Auckland, Auckland 1010, New Zealand b FRAMECAD Ltd, Auckland 1072, New Zealand *Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT: Cyber-Physical Machine Tools (CPMT) represent a new generation of machine tools that are smarter, well connected, widely accessible, more adaptive and more autonomous. Development of CPMT requires standardized information modelling method and communication protocols for machine tools. This paper proposes a CPMT Platform based on OPC UA and MTConnect that enables standardized, interoperable and efficient data communication among machine tools and various types of software applications. First, a development method for OPC UA-based CPMT is proposed based on a generic OPC UA information model for CNC machine tools. Second, to address the issue of interoperability between OPC UA and MTConnect, an MTConnect to OPC UA interface is developed to transform MTConnect information model and data to their OPC UA counterparts. An OPC UA-based CPMT prototype is developed and further integrated with a previously developed MTConnect-based CPMT to establish a CPMT Platform. Third, different applications are developed to demonstrate the advantages of the proposed CPMT Platform, including an OPC UA Client, an advanced AR-assisted wearable Human-Machine Interface and a conceptual framework for CPMT powered cloud manufacturing environment. Experimental results have proven that the proposed CPMT Platform can significantly improve the overall production efficiency and effectiveness in the shop floor. Key words: Cyber-Physical Machine Tools; Machine Tool 4.0; digital twin; OPC UA; MTConnect 1.
