Embedded Computers as Front-end Controllers for SCADA in Substation

Aug. 9, 2011 - PRLog -- A company in Taiwan needed powerful front-end controllers to deal with front-end SCADA tasks, such as data computing, data acquisition, and graphics control. These controllers need to deliver reliable and stable substation operations in order to reduce the front-end workload. Each substation requires four to five computers to perform these tasks The System Requirements were. X86-based computers as the front-end controller, fan less and robust design and reliable and powerful controller for data acquisition, data computing, and graphics control.
Based on the x86-architecture, the DA-710 computers can perform various industrial tasks such as data acquisition and data computing. Their powerful performance reduces the front-end workload and they can easily manage the front-end substation devices. Moxa's DA-710 computers are particularly well suited for the distributed architecture of the substation since they can be used with the SCADA system and come with various serial ports, and digital input/output channels. In addition, the four Ethernet ports can be used to establish network redundancy and provide continuous system operation.
