Tiivistelmä
This thesis is a development project designed to monitor and control a laboratory water processing system for Hamk University of Applied Sciences Automation Engineering Department.
The main areas of this thesis can be categorized into four main sections. The first part deals with the technical documentations of the water processing system. The second section involves the installation and configuration of the Beckhoff (PLC) input and output cards used as a remote terminal unit.
The third section involves graphical programming and the development of the human machine interface with LabVIEW to acquire or generate data from or to these sensors and actuators of the process through Beckhoff’s input and output cards by utilizing ACTIVE X control and AdsOCX standards or protocol.
The final part deals with enterprise integration demonstrating how process data is captured from the process and circulated or made available in the local area network (LAN) of Hamk University of Applied Sciences.
