Dream Report Software from Eurotherm

Dream Report software from Eurotherm is an integrated reporting solution for Industrial
automation. It is designed to be the simplest solution to extract data from almost any
data source and automatically provide reports to anybody, anywhere. Built on modern
technologies, Dream Report software fits perfectly for both continuous and batch process
applications.
Data Collection
Dream Report software incorporates a
Eurotherm Review driver and report template
enabling historical data to be obtained from
Eurotherm Review databases. A Review
database contains secure data collected from
devices such as the 6000 Series Graphical
recorder. Data can be collected either
automatically over an Ethernet Network or
manually with removable media.
Additionally, a robust communications kernel is installed
enabling collection of data and alarms from multiple real time
and historical sources - utilising OPC, OLE and ODBC
standards to ensure a common interface between sources from
different suppliers.

Data Logging
Dream Report software, with its powerful historian, logs by
groups, data and alarms from:

OPC Servers such as Eurotherm LINOPC or EuroMbus

Other connected real time sources ODBC, OLE etc
Analytical information as defined in reports
With unlimited groups set up with specific logging conditions for
each group, clean and accurate data is obtained and logged by
default on MSDE from SQL Server. However, other open
databases such as oracle, MySql, Access or Eurotherm
Information Manager can be utilised.

Dream Report Objects

analysis from historian databases such as a Review database.

Tables Dream Report software offers multiple options to extract

Data and Alarms in different tables.
Users can select pre-formatted tables or create their own with
the SQL table.

Report Generation

Bars and Pies Bargraphs and pie charts display various

statistical values and alarms with advanced visualisation views
(%, legend, values...)

In automatic mode, report generation and distribution can be

triggered by event or by advanced scheduling. Alternatively in
manual mode, an additional external application called Dynamic
Report Generator (DRG) provides for adjustment of the report
schedules or the generation of a demand report at any time.

Charts Users can define time based or XY charts. They can

combine charts from different time frames to visualise and compare
results quickly. Moreover, the chart object supports different types of
data (value, average value, linear regression). Users can display and
adjust multiple scales automatically or manually.
