MAPS AGENT SERVER – AGENT DEFINITION
Agents are called Agents because, instead of only containing data,
like simple database records, they also usually contain the ability to
operate or act on their own data, driving its values and to read and
write to other objects, and so influence them.
This concept is very much in line with object-oriented thinking, and
is primarily why we refer to Adroit as being "object-oriented".
OBJECT BASED TECHNOLOGY
• All Agents are Intelligent Objects – contain state information,
behaviours and action (combined sum of conditions)
• Custom Agents – Build own objects to represent plant items and
equipment
• User Defined Types (UDT depends on protocol support)
• Each Agent type is a Dynamic Link Library (DLL)

AGENT - DEFINITION
ADROIT Tags are called Agents because, instead of only containing
data, like simple database records, they also usually contain the
ability to operate or act on their own data, driving its values and
to read and write to other objects, and so influence them.
This concept is very much in line with object-oriented thinking,
and is primarily why we refer to Adroit as being "object-oriented".
Many Agents are shipped to do the work for you
Basic Agents – Analogue, Digital, Real, Integer, String etc
Advanced Agents – Counter, PID, Notify, DBAccess, Script etc
System Agents – HASP (licensing), SystemInformation
OBJECT BASED TECHNOLOGY
• All Agents are intelligent objects – contains state information,
behaviours and action (combined sum of conditions)
• Custom Agents – Build own objects to represent plant items and
equipment
• Each Agent type is a Dynamic Link Library (DLL)
• Custom object development and deployment
ANALOG AGENTS
Each Agent.Slot is a Tag
Example: Agent Named A1

associated with ot.
Example
A1.RawValue
A1.Value (scaled value)
A1.engMin (min eng value)
A1.engMax (Max eng Value)

SCADA Alarm Management
Alarm System Terminology
An Alarm is an event to which an operator must react, respond
and acknowledge.
An Alarm System is there to prevent, or at least minimize,
physical and economic loss through operator intervention in
response to the condition that was alarmed on any given
process.
Secondly, an Alarm System should provide and alarm and
event log.
Current Alarming Problems
•
•
•
•
•
Existing alarm configurations are unknown
Alarm flooding during plant upset
Too many standing alarms – accepted as ‘normal’
Too many ‘high’ priority alarms
Lack of real information to support decision making

Adroit SCADA Intelligence
Version 3.0.0
From Data to Information
Data
Data is raw data and unorganized facts that need to be
processed.
Information
When data is processed, organized, structured or
presented in a given context so as to make it useful, it is
called Information.
Challenges – SCADA data
•
•
•
•
Large amounts of unorganized data
No context (e.g. where, what type, quality etc.)
No relationship between the data and your business
Difficult to extract, process and present the data in
reports
• Difficult to analyse
Challenges - Relational Database
• Relational design is very specific to each reporting
solution
• SQL skills required to design the database
• Data logging and insertion is more complex
• Must understand relationships to retrieve data
Adroit SCADA Intelligence
SCADA Intelligence is data warehousing system which
collects and processes data from disparate data sources and makes
the resulting information available on a common platform to enable
decision making.
Features & Benefits
• No database design required
• Transform data into useful information
– Apply ISA-95 context model to data
– Process raw data (digitals, analogs and counters)
• Connect to multiple data sources
– OLEDB (e.g. Adroit DBLog, LIMS database)
– Historians
