Clever ideas for tomorrow's concepts
The Saia® PCD automation system contains forward-looking concepts for the seamless integration of control components within IT infrastructures present everywhere. Saia® S-Net connects communications paths from the IT world and control level, allowing transparent data exchange at all levels. HTTP and FTP servers have been built into controller CPUs to provide web-based access to process data, controller resources and HTML/Java based visualization interfaces. The open, Windows® based control/web panels of the Saia® PCD system open up the wide range of services offered with PC technology for use in automation solutions.
Differentiation – Benefits at device- and system levels
To be successful in the marketplace, you have to stand out from the competition. The Saia® PCD control system contains basic modules that OEMs can use to give their application advantages in the market place. At system level, the guiding concepts are simple networking and integration into IT infrastructures, control and monitoring with web technology, and open embedded Windows® HMI solutions.
The Saia® PCD, with its clever added functions and innovative concepts, offers an ideal starting point for clear differentiation from competitors.
New level of freedom for individual solutions
The Saia® PCD series opens up new possibilities for OEMs to adapt individual, optimized control solutions. The modularity of the Saia® PCD operating system lets OEMs integrate their own functions and protect them from access. Innovative plug-in technology transforms remote I/O stations into intelligent subsystems with custom functions. Full custom controllers are devel-oped and produced completely to specification based on standard PCD technology.
