  1. Remote Site Monitoring CIMScan 5

  2. Easy to Use Distributed I/O CIMScan 5

  3. A Straightforward Architecture CIMScan 5

  4. Monitor Critical Functions • Refrigerators, Freezers & Cold Rooms • Stability Chambers & Incubators • Live Animal Compounds • Equipment (telcom switches, servers, etc.) • Emergency Generators & UPS Systems • HVAC Systems, Lighting • Utilities (Power, Water, Steam, Gas, Oil) • Security CIMScan 5

  5. Measure... • Temperature & Humidity • Voltage, Current, Power • Pressure, Torque, Strain, Load, Weight • Flow Rates, Totals • Level, Height, Displacement, Position • Speed, Frequency • Pulse Widths, Cycle Times and Counts • pH, Opacity, BOD, Particle Counts CIMScan 5

  6. And Calculate the Rest • Real-time calculations using VBA scripts. • Each script runs independently. • Scripts can be triggered by any event. • Calculate … • volumes, totals, differentials • oil, gas, & steam flow • moving averages, integrals, dynamic limits • control (SPC, PID, etc.) CIMScan 5

  7. Keep Operators Informed • Real-Time Charts • Trend Charts, Bar Charts, Pie, Scatter • Control Charts, Pareto Charts with SPC Package • HMI Graphics • Built on standard graphics files • Buttons, gauges, switches, meters, indicators, charts • Spreadsheets • Updated in real-time • Variety of formats CIMScan 5

  8. Check for Alarm Conditions • Whenever a value is stored in the database, it is checked against the alarm limits • Five (5) limit values (warning, alarm, rate of change) • Each database point has its own limits. CIMScan 5

  9. Alert Supervisors • Text to Speech - output to PA systems • E-Mail - send messages via standard LAN-based systems (MAPI, Microsoft Mail, VIM) • Telephone - automatically call one or more recipients and annunciate the problem with current information • Pager - alpha/numeric and numeric pagers supported • Internet Mail - automatically send messages via the Internet (SMPT) CIMScan 5

  10. Record the Data • On event or periodically • To an unlimited number of logs (i.e., one log per machine, lift station, wellhead, pumping station) • All entries time stamped (log name typically contains the date) • Log to ASCII or binary files • Log to ODBC databases (Oracle, Access, etc.) • Logging can be controlled based on condition CIMScan 5

  11. … for Later Recall & Analysis • Quickly find and recall historical data using CIMRecall • Interactively select data by date and time • Search data sets for specific conditions • Calculate statistics (average, mean, standard deviation, max, min, etc.) • Display & print charts • Copy selected data to Excel (plusWord, SAS, MiniTab, Statgraphics, SPSS, etc.) CIMScan 5

  12. … and Report Generation • Use CIMPrint for quick, easy to set up reports. • Import data to Excel for more sophisticated reports. • Use commercially available Report Generators. CIMScan 5

  13. Details CIMScan 5

  14. Setup as simple as 1-2-3 • Install the Required I/O Hardware. • Create a Real-Time Database • Configure the Services • Build Charts, Spreadsheets, HMI Graphics • Create Alarm Strategies, Set Limits • Make Messages • Create Actions CIMScan 5

  15. Build the Real-Time Database CIMScan 5

  16. Link the I/O to the Database CIMScan 5

  17. Create the Interface to the User CIMScan 5

  18. Setup the Alarm Processing CIMScan 5

  19. Done! • Typically, a simple application takes a few hours to configure. Involved HMI graphics may take a bit longer. • CIMScan’s database editing tools make creating a very complex application easy. • Background graphics can be simply created with a digital camera or a standard bitmap graphics file (BMP, WMF, GIF, JPG) CIMScan 5

  20. Integrate with Existing Systems • Standards-Based system makes it possible • Windows 2000/XP • TCP/IP • Ethernet • ODBC • OPC CIMScan 5

  21. Monitor any Process • I/O Pods provide the lowest cost, easiest to implement solution. • Custom drivers are easy to create for an eLink • Communicate over RS-232/485 or GPIB to instruments • Use OPC to interface to many PLC’s and specialized controllers plus Fieldbus, DeviceNet, ProfiBus, etc. devices are supported using OPC servers CIMScan 5

  22. Bulletproof Security • All system accesses under password control • Data available only on “need to know” basis • Secure LAN interaction (encrypted messaging) • All system changes optionally logged to audit trail. CIMScan 5

  23. Real-World Experience • NASA:Monitoring the assembly building for the international space station at Cape Kennedy. • Duratek:Monitoring nuclear waste processing at five nuclear power plants. • Square-D:Data acquisition system in high energy test lab for switch gear product testing. • Siemens:Twelve real-time monitoring systems used in gas turbine generating stations. • Cardinal Health:Clean room monitoring at 3 pharmaceutical packaging sites (validated systems). • DuPont:Monitoring entire lab facility doing Ag research. CIMScan 5

  24. … and more • PRC:Unattended monitoring of the environment and equipment in three US Government towers in the Atlantic Ocean. • Babcock & Wilcox:Monitoring a nuclear decontamination barge located in Russia. • Covance:Distributed monitoring system in a pharmaceutical manufacturing operation in the UK. • Villanova University: Steam plant, Rare books room, Bioscience facility. • Space Systems / Loral:Monitoring and test system for satellites (2 systems). • Northrop-Grumman:Production monitoring system for micro-electronics used in weapons systems. CIMScan 5

  25. Why CIMScan? • State-of-the-Art, Event-Driven System • Understandable Architecture • Scalable • Standards-Based • Supports Distributed I/O and Remote Access • Incredibly Easy to Set up and Use • Very Cost-Effective Hardware & Software • Can be Easily Maintained by Average People CIMScan 5
