Rockwell Automation Control Logix and Wonderware Archestra framework
MIPAC has developed a standardised Rockwell Automation Control Logix and Wonderware Archestra framework that the company claims can save up to 300 engineering hours and thousands of pounds on the average automation project.
The framework’s library of objects is designed to enable a project to be rapidly configured.
According to MIPAC, the framework is currently being applied in the mining industry and would also benefit manufacturing and food and beverage settings.
It supports analogue signals with standard HH, H, L, LL, out-of-range and deviation alarms, with time delays and deadbands, as well as the features listed below.
Key features
- Objects to support alarming and set points managed within the PLC
- Ease of configuration with functionality similar to a DCS
- Standard window layouts and navigation standards
- Multiple monitor support
- Windows for alarm summary, alarm history, event history, help files and report
- Control Logix function block library
- Built-in I/O simulation capability
