1. Study case

During this training course we will create a complete project implementing the common
features needed for most real projects.

SCADA software is used in various industries (power supply, water treatment, man-
ufacturing etc.). We have selected a building management project because it can be under-
stood without specialist knowledge.

2. Design process

You can design a PcVue project in several ways but, because PcVue is object oriented, there
is one best way represented by the following diagram.

We will try to follow this procedure to design our study case. For organizational reasons,
the trainer can modify this procedure during the training.

3.1. Specifications and needs

Our imaginary customer requires a project with the following features:

l This building has two floors.

l The first floor has one room. The second floor has two rooms.

l The building includes two lifts. Data is collected using Modbus TCP/IP protocol.

l All rooms have one air conditioner and one light. These data items are collected with
an OPC server.

l The same layout for each mimic.

l Good, clear navigation among mimics.

l Display all data about lifts, air conditioners and lights.

l Manage alarms.

l Archive collected data and display on trends and logs.

l Display the status of the devices we are communicating with.

l Manage several User Accounts.

Specifically for the training we want to have mimics to display some basic features such as
animations. Later when you design an actual project you can come back to these mimics to
remind you.

3.2. Proposed architecture

This project will implement a single PcVue station in stand-alone mode.

The following diagram represents the architecture:

l Air conditioner
The data involved are:

l Temperature value,

l On/Off control,

l Temperature set point,

l Temperature High/Low limit,

3.4. Ergonomics

The customer wishes to have the same layout and a clear navigation among mimics.

To achieve this, we will use a mimic template that includes:

l Logo

l Navigation bar,

l Login/Logout button,

l Date, time and current user,

l Current alarms.

We can represent the navigation by the following diagram:
