  10. Agenda • Where we are & what we do • In the beginning • Network Changeover and ArchestrA • The Problem • Considerations • Implementation • Licensing Considerations

  11. Considerations • ArchestrA readonly View stations • Information Server • Terminal Server

  12. ArchestrA View Stations • Multiple Applications to Maintain • Operators not always competent • High Maintenance • Additional PC with Platform and View • Additional Network infrastructure • Only one application can be viewed at once

  13. Information Server • Extremely Slow when publishing full scada • Windows to be simplified a lot • Difficult to update and change windows • Additional scada maintenance • No Wonderware installation required • Can be accessed from any network PC

  14. Terminal Server • No Wonderware Installation Required • Quick Implementation • Easy Access / Security Control • Easy Application Maintenance • Multiple Applications hosted on one Server • Client can view multiple applications at once • Fast • Minimal network load

  15. Traditional Approach Load Operating Systems Configuration Networks, Security, … Load Service Patches/Patches Load Application Software – InTouch, Service Packs/Patches Load Applications

  18. Implementation • Setup Terminal Server • Install Intouch Terminal Server Edition • Deploy Platform and View Engine • Deploy all Applications • Setup User Access and Sessions • The user determines the app to open • Setup Remote Desktop to access server

  19. Auto Start

  20. User Groups

  21. IDE View Platform View Engine Applications

  22. Multiple Applications

  23. Remote Desktop Config

  24. Where we are & what we do • In the beginning • Network Changeover and ArchestrA • The Problem • Considerations • Implementation • Licensing Considerations

  25. Licensing • Server – • Requires a - Wonderware System Platform License • No additional Platforms are necessary per session • Requires a - InTouch for System Platform Read-only TSE license for each Session • Server – Microsoft CAL License • View Stations – Platform License TSE
