ICON System The ICON is a modular, scalable, network
based data acquisition and process control system that includes
all the software and hardware required to develop and deploy the
application programs and HMI (Human Machine Interface) screens for
many different types of applications. Building blocks include one or
more ICON controllers interconnected over a TCP/IP network. Each
controller communicates with one or more Modbus serial or TCP I/O
nodes for data and sensor input and control and actuator output.
Each controller is fully programmable to process input data, create
control algorithms, historical data and alarms and output
control values. The controller(s) are accessed
from one or more Java enabled computers (Windows, Linux,
Macintosh) over the TCP/IP network.

|
- The ICON
connects to a standard TCP/IP network with
Ethernet.
-
The ICON
can also be accessed through dial-up or Cellular
modems.
- Operate
from AC or DC power (solar panels,
wind turbine ...)
|
|
- Program and debug
your application data acquisition
and control program
- Create your Human
Machine Interface (HMI) screens
- Operate the finished
system by accessing the HMI screens
- Works with Java enabled
PCs or PDAs includingWindows, Macintosh
or Linux
|
|
- Encrypted passwords
and authentication keys
- Multi-level passwords
providing different views and permissions
for different users
- Hardware lockout
switch preventing program change after
deployment
