Hi guys,
We have tried many things and tought about a lot of possibillities.
We tried CSV log files from panels on an ethernet network and store them on a server.
Problem is that csv files can be corrupted when shutting of the main cabinet. So we need to buy an UPS for each machine. Cost aprox. 200 euros / machine.
We tought about the OPC server in Multipanels. But then we have to write IT applications and the smaller Operating Panels do not have this option.
I think, the best thing to buy is WinCC. But, what does it cost for aprox 1000 tags ?
Or is WInCC Flexible also possible to use as a Scada for more then 20 machines ?
