Navigator and OOG

Navigator
The Navigator shows the data structures within the SCADA system in a clear and concise manner through a tree structure and provides effective functions for simple and efficient navigation and (object-oriented) engineering. The operator can switch from a technological view (subsystems, systems and equipment) to a hardware-oriented view (substations and information objects). Visualisation of the data model according to telemetry addresses, the visualisation of the image hierarchy as well as the automatic update of the status of process data in the navigator’s spreadsheet window are, of course, also possible.
Furthermore, it is possible to visualise important detail information, e.g. error counting on all levels of the process hierarchy, or status data on the information object level. Hierarchical information – such as technological fault error statistics – are visualised in object-specific groups.
Operation of the navigator is based on Windows Explorer and therefore intuitive.


OOG
Effective engineering provides the conditions for quick and easy updating and for an efficient modification and expansion service in SCADA systems. Process structures can be visualised in a clear and concise manner by means of object-oriented views of the data models. This technology will become even more significant with a view to specific standards, such as IEC 61850 and – in the future – IEC 61970 CIM (Common Information Model).
The HIGH-LEIT Navigator and the functions for object-oriented engineering fulfil the standards and expectations arising from these developments. Thanks to a perfect interaction between the Navigator and the ProBild function, it is possible to group already existing information objects into template objects via dialogue, and to connect them with images from the ProBild template library. The system verifies whether the selected information objects have the correct position in the object hierarchy.
It is therefore possible to use “intelligent” copy functions for the quick and comfortable creation of frequently occurring plant components, e.g. busbar feeders, network feeders, pump groups or transfer stations.
These functions can be executed simply via Drag & Drop – only the new text words have to be entered via dialogue, and the operator has to specify the process connection.
Connections to information objects within an object can be replaced (e.g. by formulas, command/event signal pointers, …]. Lines to switches beyond the object in question are deleted and are then generated anew via the “Connect Switch” function. All actions and – if applicable – problems and manually performed jobs are listed in the OOG report.
