Monitoring, signalling and telemaintenance
The connection of the controllers into networks means that one single supervisory station can manage the parameters and information required to identify the status of the devices present and the processes being controlled. The data collected (temperature graphs, fault signals, service requests, etc.), which can be displayed by the user simply and quickly, are saved and can be made available to access the information saved via a remote connection, in order to analyse or check the correct operation of the system. They can consequently modify the control parameters, modify or force the operating modes, or directly manage any actuators. When required, it is the system itself that alerts the appropriate service centre. Event synchronization The individual control actions can be co-ordinated so as to be performed at certain times and in certain ways, in order to minimise any negative effects on the overall system. One example is the division of the loads due to the defro...
