Getting IIoT data into a SCADA system | PcVue Solutions website
Summary
This means adding IIoT data feeds into SCADA hosts that are currently using hardwired industrial IP networks, often with legacy serial communications in the mix. Based on our industry’s history, we expect that SCADA data acquisition from the IIoT will have different flavors, and very likely we’ll see these in use in parallel. This, along with the ease of incorporating IIoT sensors into the SCADA system, means an uptick in the amount of data expected to be integrated into the platform. With contextual mobility, it’s possible to declutter the operator’s screen and automatically provide the information and control elements that the user needs to do his or her job. An alternative approach is a model based on the inclusion of a mobility server equipped with a contextual logic engine to deliver the information and controls for users to do their job when they are on-site and in a position to make use of good and clearly presented data.
