This small-footprint software application has a long history in industrial environments. Built to record and visualize all available analog and digital information, it can be modified to accommodate ad hoc value combinations according to specific parameter requirements.
Batch or event-based data can be acquired from SCADA screens and is accessible with just one click. Annotations and comments can be added and time-stamped, and information from sources such as LIMS or manual entries can be collected and stored. A preferred recording resolution can be defined by the operator.
Furthermore, additional views (combinations of values displayed in one screen) can be developed during normal operation, and dynamic triggers (event-based signals) can be used post-recording to separate data into logical subsets, such as clean-in-place [CIP] duration times.
Compatible with GEA Codex®, import and export features ensure that the collected data can be used in other applications. Plus, with a built-in redundancy facility, the system will automatically recover and rebuild any missed data after a period of inactivity/downtime.
