Abstracts
Matrikon Suite Sessions:
Session 1a: Operational Insight & Hands-On Demo Access to the whole operational picture through web-based data visualization and KPI dashboards enables better operational decisions by providing you with the data you need, when you need it and in the required format. The use of one universal client tool across your whole enterprise gives you simple and timely collaboration within and across departments. See how Matrikon’s web-based decision support system can help you access data from all your operational systems, build powerful calculations like Key Performance Indicators, and visualize all your information in any format – process graphics, trends, KPI gauges, reports, charts -- in one powerful operational dashboard.
Actively participate in this demo to build a KPI dashboard.
Session 2a: Alarm Management & Case Study Alarm Manager is a powerful tool that can help you optimize your alarm strategy to mitigate abnormal situations. Learn about alarm rationalization, operator assist and alarm change management. This session will cover the evolution of alarm management, best practices when integrating an alarm management project, and key legislation regulating alarm management practices.
You will have the opportunity to perform a top down alarm analysis yourself.
Session 3a: PID Monitoring and Tuning Matrikon Control Performance Monitor eliminates the guesswork in control tuning and loop optimization by analyzing and tuning control performance in closed-loop conditions without breaking open loops. Using TaiJi process modeling technology, Matrikon Control Performance Monitor prioritizes maintenance efforts and enables users to tune multiple PID loops simultaneously through non-disruptive closed-loop testing in a matter of minutes.
This presentation offers a personal "test drive" of the product.
Session 4a: Equipment Condition Monitoring Matrikon Equipment Condition Monitor reduces unscheduled downtime by predicting and preventing critical equipment failures and diagnosing the root causes of poor performance. It is the only vendor-independent software product in the market that leverages both real-time and historical data through universal connectivity. Equipment condition monitoring allows your organization to implement a condition-based maintenance approach, where key assets are serviced based on their actual, current condition and performance.
OPC-Suite Sessions:
Session 1b: OPC Tunnelling Technology Matrikon OPC Tunneller 3.0 (now with encryption and data compression) provides an easy, reliable and secure way to communicate between networked computers. It does away with the headaches typically associated with DCOM configuration. No longer are different protocols, security settings or locations a factor when sharing data between computers. This is achieved by simply installing Matrikon OPC Tunneller on the OPC client and OPC server nodes and then telling the Tunneller client where the Tunneller server exists.
OPC Tunneller Connectivity Exercise: In less than 5 minutes you can connect to an OPC server located in Northern Canada!
Sessions 2b - 4b:
- Monitoring Infrastructure Health using OPC
- Minimize Downtime using OPC
- OPC Advanced Distributed History Architectures
Companies across the globe spend millions of dollars to collect and store data, but often end up being unable to move or access that data. What if there was a way to easily eliminate islands of data, and consolidate it in one central point? The answer lies in OPC connectivity. OPC technology taps the data layer and enables data from the plant floor to be made available to the top floor. The methods of OPC data access remain the same regardless of the type and source of data. Therefore, end users are free to choose the software and hardware that meets their primary production needs, without having to conside |
