PI-<strong>PCS</strong> 7 integration<br />
■ Function<br />
Interfaces<br />
PI-<strong>PCS</strong> 7 Interface<br />
The PI-<strong>PCS</strong> 7 Interface reads the process variables cyclically<br />
from SIMATIC <strong>PCS</strong> 7 and saves them in the PI long-term archive.<br />
The PI-<strong>PCS</strong> 7 Interface is operated on an Interface PC on the<br />
OS-LAN of the SIMATIC <strong>PCS</strong> 7 process control system and uses<br />
the @<strong>PCS</strong> 7 server functionality of this system. Other features are<br />
Archive Recovery and Failover Online.<br />
PI-<strong>PCS</strong> 7 Interface Alarm<br />
The PI-<strong>PCS</strong> 7 Interface Alarm stores messages from the operator<br />
station in the PI long-term archive. The messages are assembled<br />
from the OS message archive and saved in the PI long-term<br />
archive as text with a time stamp. These messages can be combined<br />
with other process values or batch data in the PI system<br />
using the time stamp, e.g. in order to generate reports that meet<br />
specific legal requirements.<br />
The PI-<strong>PCS</strong> 7 integration is the standard solution for linking the<br />
PI system from OSIsoft to the SIMATIC <strong>PCS</strong> 7 process control PI-<strong>PCS</strong> 7 Interface Batch<br />
system.<br />
The PI-<strong>PCS</strong> 7 Interface Batch stores data from SIMATIC BATCH<br />
The PI-<strong>PCS</strong> 7 integration comprises various interfaces and tools in the PI long-term archive. In connection with the PI-<strong>PCS</strong> 7 In-<br />
that can be used as required. The tools simplify the configuration terface this means that reports and evaluations based on batch<br />
or represent trends from the PI system on the operator station. data and process values can also be in implemented in the PI<br />
system. Other features include support of the manual operating<br />
The <strong>PCS</strong> 7 data is forwarded via interfaces to the archive of the<br />
mode, archive recovery or an Excel add-in for reports.<br />
PI server for long-term storage. The data in the long term archive<br />
of the PI server is available for evaluation and further processing Tools<br />
regardless of the process control system.<br />
PI-WinCC Trend Control<br />
PI-<strong>PCS</strong> 7 Integration supports the redundancy concept of<br />
SIMATIC <strong>PCS</strong> 7 multi-user server systems.<br />
PI-WinCC Trend Control, with the aid of the standard WinCC x/y<br />
trends, represents values from a PI data archive instead of from<br />
a WinCC archive. This enables additional process values to be<br />
displayed on the <strong>PCS</strong> 7-OS Client.<br />
Display features:<br />
• Up to 8 configurable graphs<br />
• Values can be presented individually or jointly on various time<br />
axes<br />
• Online updating of the graphs<br />
• Zoom functions<br />
PI tag Configuration Tool<br />
The PI tag Configuration Tool simplifies the configuration of PI<br />
tags on the basis of the configured <strong>PCS</strong> 7 variables. The <strong>PCS</strong> 7<br />
variable budget which can be limited by means of filters is automatically<br />
read out and configured in the PI system, so that transmission<br />
errors or inconsistencies are avoided. By means of delta<br />
runs the respective current status of the <strong>PCS</strong> 7 configuration is<br />
updated in the PI system.<br />
