EWS
ONS, Open Network Service, is an open protocol for the access to process tags of TOSDIC™-CIE DS/nv system. EWS, Engineering Work Station, is an environment for the high-level applications and system interfaces which use ONS.
Toshiba industrial PC FA3100 series is recommended as the platform.
Features
Seamless connection to information systems
In order to increase the operation rate and productivity of a plant through mutual connection among information systems such as reports, production planning and process management, TOSDIC™-CIE DS/nv system provides an open environment for application development. In addition, the de facto standard OPC interface is supported to realize the seamless connection to information systems.
High-level maintenance supported by station monitoring
EWS is a station monitored by TOSDIC™-CIE DS/nv system, thus equipment troubles such as node down are detectable by OIS-DS, like the other stations. The reduction of MTTR (Mean Time To Repair) contributes to high operation rate of the whole plant.
