Long Distance Wireless

Effective communications through Telemetry SCADA wireless systems.

Long distance wireless systems are sometimes referred to as Telemetry or Telemetry SCADA systems. These terms usually refer to centralized systems which monitor and control entire sites, or complexes of systems spread out over large areas (large industrial plants, distributed fields or even across countries). Most control actions are performed automatically by RTUs or PLCs, with Host functions usually limited to basic overriding or supervisory level intervention.

Why Choose MatrikonOPC Wireless-Ready Suite
MatrikonOPC Wireless-Ready technology is built to be industrial strength and easy to use. Our philosophy on long distance wireless communications is that any product produced by MatrikonOPC must have the ability to deal with extreme communications environments.

Typical extreme environments would be:

  • Areas of low bandwidth
  • Excessive noise
  • Architectures with a large device count
  • In order to handle the rigors of these wireless environments, the MatrikonOPC Wireless-Ready Servers includes the following design features not found in ordinary OPC servers:

    • Multiple communication channels at the same time:
         • Direct Serial (RS-232/422/485)
         • Radio
         • Network (Ethernet TCP/IP and UDP/IP)
         • Terminal servers (TCP/IP and UDP/IP)
         • CDPD (Cellular Digital Packet Data)
         • Dial-up (including dial-in and dial-out)
    • Optimized for low-bandwidth and noisy communication channels
    • Supervisory control using single-destination and broadcast commands
    • Redundancy:
         • Channel redundancy
         • Fail-over and Fail-back
    • Comprehensive polling engine:
         • Poll Management:
                • Round-robin polling
                • Interleaved polling
                • Demand polling
                • Configurable polling priorities
         • Port configuration:
                • Multiple ports
                • Configurable baud rate for each port
                • Serial and TCP/IP
                • Same station delay
                • Direct, modem/radio, dial-up
         • External configuration
                • Polling engine control
                • Online changes without data loss
                • Complete access to communication diagnostics
         • Communication diagnostics
                • Status flag
                • Poll count
                • No-response count
                • Incomplete poll
                • Fail/retry count
                • All station time updates
                • Response timeout

    MatrikonOPC Wireless Ready products are currently used in Oil & Gas, Power and Utilities architectures around the globe because of their reliability and ease of integration into existing systems.

    Wireless Ready OPC Servers

    Our MatrikonOPC Wireless-Ready OPC Servers are built to easily adapt to the above environments, but also to leverage the OPC connectivity of other MatrikonOPC products. Adding OPC security with Matrikon OPC Tunneller, or store and forward historization of data with MatrikonOPC Buffer is easy and cost effective.
