final year project
ABSTRACT
In this project the researcher has developed an integrated wireless SCADA system for controlling, monitoring, measuring and accessing the performance of remotely situated device parameter such as temperature, humidity Light, LPG gas and DC motor on real time basis. The purpose of this project was to clarify the possibilities for data validation in the SCADA system. The emphasis of this project was clarify theoretically basic validation routines that is in use but also other possibilities what could be implemented to the SCADA. Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system was being used in industries to control easily and simply. This project investigates on creating an extremely low cost device which can be adapted to many different SCADA applications via some very basic programming, and plugging in the relevant peripherals. Much of the price in some expensive SCADA applications is a result of using specialized communication infrastructure. The application of infrastructure, in the proposed scheme the cost will come down. Additionally the generic nature of the device will be assured.
Keywords: - SCADA System, Control Unit, Remote monitoring system, Microcontroller.
CHAPTER 1
1.1 INTRODUCTION
SCADA is not a specific technology, but a type of application . SCADA stands for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition – any application that gets data about a system in order to control that system is a SCADA application.
A SCADA application has two elements:
The process/system/machinery to monitor a control — this can be a power plant, a water system , a network , a system of traffic lights ,or anything else. A network of intelligent devices that interfaces with the first system through sensors and control outputs . This network , which is the SCADA system , gives the ability to measure and control specific elements of the first system .
