WDPF® WEStation Operator and Engineer Workstations



 

WDPF® RISC workstation-based devices, known as WEStations, provide an open platform for implementing a variety of operator, engineering, historian, logger and communication server functions. These workstations also facilitate communications to other networks and devices through their use of open operating systems and communications protocols. WEStation functional units or "drops" connect to both the Westnet Data Highway and the Ethernet Information Highway.

The WEStation Operator Workstation is built on the proven performance of WDPFII distributed control and information systems technology, the WEStation Operator Station is the most advanced workstation-based operator of its kind. The WEStation Operator Station provides a window to the plant process. This real-time graphical interface provides the operator with access to control, diagnostics, trending, alarming, and plant conditions.

WEStation Operator Station Features:

  • Capability to connect to multiple Westnet II Data Highways accommodates large, integrated systems.
  • Navigation aids provide operators with quick, direct access to information.
  • Capability to support multiple languages, character sets 6/13/07rator proficiency.
  • Optional login security feature for restricted access protection.
  • Sparc-based platform ensures multiple-vendor support and compatibility with future hardware releases.

The WEStation Engineer Workstation combines all of the functions of a WEStation Operator workstation with the tools needed to create, edit, and download process graphics, control logic, and the process point databases. The Software Server functionality can be incorporated into the Engineer Station to provide on-line storage for master copies of all software, control logic, and graphics. There must be at least one Software Server on each WEStation system.

WEStation Engineer Station Features:

  • Dual performance as the WEStation Operator allows access to online control and graphics, while engineering new configurations.
  • Login Security available for restricted-access protection.
  • Extensive capabilities to re-use graphics code, saves time and ensures adherence to graphic conventions.
  • System reference tools and libraries available through manual pages online.
  • WDPF® user and maintenance manuals available on CD-ROM for quick reference.
  • Multiple windows allow simultaneous engineering of control, database, and graphics.
