Francis,
When you buy the Standard PCS License, the package provides a library of Control Modules (i.e. valves, motors, comparators, PID's, etc.) and Industry-Specific Equipment Modules (e.g. Temperature Control, Flow Control, etc.) that have two components: 1) the function in the PLC; 2) the...
Francis,
There is no PLC code "generation" in Plant iT.
Does 'factor x' provide this?
The problem I see with code generators is precisely what you pointed out at the end. Code generators are good only during the mass-engineering phase. Once you go online, it is easier to work directly with...
Francis,
The system is class-based, which means that each standard module is a class that has its component on the Scada level and its matchin pair on the PLC level. Valve and Motor classes can be parameterized to different types, such as one or two feedbacks, positive or negated logic of...
Francis,
The best way to compare classical SCADA/PLC solutions with Integrated Process Control Systems is by breaking down and comparing the functionalities. We have made a case study based on experience values from the field, and we came up with the following figures. The percentages are...
I'm responding to the above archived thread:
"shyam" wants to get rid of the problems associated to the interation of SCADA and PLC software platforms, and is looking for an integrated solution.
Take a look at our website at

Direct iT is the...
