• Maximize uptime by minimizing downtime
– Maintenance systems point to cause, not symptom
– Automatically generate work orders
– Automatically suggest corrective actions
most valued global provider of power, control & information solutions
Regulations
• Sarbanes Oaxley Act of 2002
– Larger companies that have a CSO, GAO, or strong IT office that realizes
that there is no change management on controllers, etc.
– Section 404: requires establishment of controls that reasonably protect
against preventable events that could influence a company’s value.
• OSHA
– Knowing that controllers are configured correctly and knowing that
someone in the office can not program a controller has merit here.
• Tread Act
– Great potential here but industry has resisted so far.
• Homeland Security
– Has put a lot of pressure on systems of concern
– We have succeeded in the water industry and others
• USDA
• ATF
• FDA
– Absolutely is concerned with open systems and mistakes that endanger
the quality of the product and consumer’s health
• EPA
– Effluent discharge and stack emission change management
• FAA

Change Management system
provides support throughout
the process while emphasizing
the higher-value
elements
Disaster Recovery
• Case: Pet Food Manufacturer
– Computer maintenance lost programs on several key assets. In spite
of manually saving programs on a central server, they ended up using
a very old version made by the OEM of the machine.
• Consequences:
– Hours of downtime and lost production to be made up with overtime.
– Extra cost of indirect labor for remaking the asset configurations.
• Solution:
– By managing asset configuration versions automatically in a central
repository and by automatically backing them up, no program is lost.
As well, through version control, everyone knows which program to
use immediately.
• Benefits:
– Save production cost and delivery time issues by always knowing
which program is the right version.
– Provide confidence in the process and controller program for the
engineering and maintenance teams.

Maximizing System Availability
• For operators to maintain visualization and control of their manufacturing
system, the server components must provide a continuous flow of
information to the client components. This is why software redundancy is so
important.
• To help ensure that critical data remains available to clients, even during
server disruptions, RSView Supervisory Edition—enabled by the
FactoryTalk integrated architecture—provides built-in redundancy features:
– HMI Server redundancy
– Data Server redundancy

FactoryTalk Security
• Policies define system-wide rules
that govern how security is
implemented
• Computer accounts define which
computers can access your
automation system
• User accounts define who can get
access to your automation system
• Networks and Devices allows you to
secure access to control hardware
Copyright © 2005 Rockwell Automation, Inc. All rights reserved.
Runtime Language Switching
• Application languages can be switched
dynamically at runtime
– Most user defined strings that are visible at
runtime are switchable including all graphic
display labels & captions, tooltips, global
objects & title bars
– CurrentLanguage Function in expression
editor provides method for switching alarms
and messages
• Time/Date & Decimal formats are
automatically switched based on
the locale settings for the current
language
Copyright © 2005 Rockwell Automation, Inc. All rights reserved.
Global Objects are used to reduce the
development of user defined Faceplates
• Global objects provide the capability to link the appearance and behavior
of a base graphic such as a Process Loop Faceplate to multiple
references of the object (PID instructions) in the same application
• Global objects are created on global object displays and are called base
objects
– All RSView graphic objects can be global objects
except for ActiveX controls
– Grouped objects are supported
• Copying a base object to a standard graphic
display creates a reference object
• When changes are made to the base object, the
referenced objects are changed as well
Copyright © 2005 Rockwell Automation, Inc. All rights reserved.
Operator Faceplates for the IA Operator
