I study a specific control command solution with ZENON software as supervisor and STRATON as automation software. ZENON is a COPA-DATA software (Austria) and STRATON is a COPALP software (French). COPALP Company is more or less part of COPA-DATA Company.
This solution is totally embedded in one PC. No need of a specific and separate controller to manage the process and the I/O.
STRATON is a runtime compiled software. Both run in a standard Windows XP or 2003 server PC. It's possible to have several PC with ZENON and STRATON to split the process on different units. The I/O modules can be connected to the ZENON/STRATON PC using serial link, Profinet link, CAN link, TCP link....
- Do anybody has experience with this solution?
- What is the reliability and availability of this solution?
- How are the Engineering tools (for displays built and automation program)?
