Control of model through Intranet/Internet network

Abstract

The laboratory model of tanks, structure and features are described in the paper. Programmable logic controller Mitsubishi FX is used for control of the whole model. Six new functions were programmed for PLC Mitsubishi including functions for operating. All functions were programmed in Melsec Medoc Plus program version 2.1. Human interface SCADA/HMI for visualization within InTouch program, which can be used for control of the system providing that relevant rights are set, was created for the model. Visualization and control of the model were designed and implemented not only within the local network but also through Internet with the help of the industrial information server SuiteVoyager that gathers data and transfers it to clients in the form of web pages. Actual and historical alarm messages are acquired from distributed alarm system of the InTouch application.
