COMPUTER CONTROL SYSTEM
The Computer Control System (TE3300/06) is a computer control package for use with modules from TecQuipment’s TE3300 Process Control range. It allows remote control and data acquisition from the controller of each process. This system will also control and collect data from the controllers of TE3300 modules when connected in cascade.
When used with the TE3300 Process Control range, computer control increases the student’s experience of industry-standard process control.
The package includes a high-specification computer, with large screen monitor, keyboard and mouse. The package includes connections and cables for connection to the TE3300 modules. Supplied as standard on the computer is a suitable Microsoft® Windows® operating system. The industry-standard control software includes applications specially written by TecQuipment for use with the TE3300 range.
Just as in an industrial environment, the software applications mimic the variables measured by the controllers of each Process Control module. The user (operator) can easily see what happens at the remotely controlled process, as they adjust its performance. The fully configurable software logs all data and any alarm conditions. The operator can also see the changing data in real time (as a trend) and log it for later examination.
For ease of use, the software mimic (or graphical display window) and all data is in full colour.
Learning outcomes
