SCADA or Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition is a large scale control system for automated industrial processes like municipal water supplies, power generation, steel manufacturing, gas and oil pipelines etc. SCADA also has applications in large scale experimental facilities like those used in nuclear fusion.

SCADA systems monitor and control these operations by gathering data from sensors at the facility or remote station and then sending it to a central computer system that manages the operations using this information.

Two new valuable customers have chosen our products for their supervision and control projects. We really thank HighTec from Mexico and Descals from Spain for trusting in our drivers to communicate their field equipment.

Last week we had the chance to test the Moxa NPort 6150 Secure Serial Port Server Module with TAS-HMITalk to communicate with the serial port of a DanLoad 6000 electronic preset through the ethernet LAN at a fertilizer plant from Petrobras in Campana, Argentina.

The Moxa device was provided by RCL Systems, a company specialized in integrating InTouch factory suite applications for oil&gas industries.

The loopback tests worked great, showing that TAS-HMITalk could talk to the MOXA module directly, without the need of installing any COM port redirector software. TAS-HMITalk could properly recover from our intentionally-caused communication errors, such as cable disconnections and module power-off and on.

Here is the testimonial:

My recent experience with CPKSoft support was memorable, and I felt it was appropriate to share it.
 
A week ago I got a request from a good client to re-write the current scale ticket program. Having no experience with serial communications and reading information form serial devices. I had reservations about my ability to satisfy my client’s need.

A quick search on the internet pointed me to CPKSoft Engineering. Their software was the only package that supported the device I was looking to integrate with.

I downloaded the trial software, created my test application and tried it on the client’s PC…my program did not work. Now, having some experience with dealing with software component vendors, I figured I was out of luck and would have to let my client know that I will not be able to work on the project. However, just to give it a try, I decided to send an email to CPKSoft support ... Read More »
