Hi To All
Currently in our plant we are ruuning a NAIS PLC whitch controlls our refrigeration system, room temperature. It basicly opens or closed solnoid valves on the roof top. It also controls defrost times.
The Plc interfaces with our office thru wonder ware, where we are able to change the teperature settings and control defrost time settings. Also we are collecting temperature data for all production room and printing reports for QA uses.
Problem: Our printer hp-dekjet 940c is acting up at times and not printing clearly. We wated to replace with a new printer but realized that with Wonder ware this is the only type of printer we can use.
We want to upgrade the system with a Slc 5/05 processor and possibly use Factory Talk to iterface with processor. This would require us to build a new logic for the processor as well as the interfacing device.
I wanted to ask if Factory talk would be an proper software to do the job, and able us to printthe data on day basis. Also would I be able to control (on,off) the evaporating units from the pc in our office, as we will not be using a actual HMI but running the application from our pc.
Baisicly i would like to control the plant temperature defrost timesrs etc. just like tru an HMI but running on a PC.
Thank You
