The Integration Assistant detects equipment types in a Plant SCADA project and converts them into templates in Application Server. The Templates tab provides a detailed description of what occurs during this process. It includes the following columns.
|
Product |
Column |
Description |
|
Severity |
Indicates if the description provided for a component is "Information" or a "Warning". If the Severity is "Warning", it indicates that a change was required during the import process for a component. For example, a Warning could indicate that a Plant SCADA item name required changes when creating an attribute as unsupported characters were detected. |
|
|
Plant SCADA |
Equipment Type |
An equipment type detected in the Plant SCADA project. The equipment type name is likely to be repeated across multiple rows to accommodate the number of items associated with it. |
|
Item |
An item associated with a detected equipment type. |
|
|
Element Type |
An element associated with an item. Elements can be one of the following types:
|
|
|
Action |
A description of the action that was performed by the Integration Assistant to recreate the required content in Application Server. This can include:
|
|
|
Application Server |
Template |
A template created in Application Server to represent an equipment type detected in Plant SCADA. The template name will be repeated across multiple rows to accommodate the number of attributes associated with it. |
|
Attribute |
An attribute created in Application Server to represent an item detected in Plant SCADA. |
|
|
Feature |
A feature that has been added to an attribute in Application Server to represent an element associated with an item in Plant SCADA. |
|
|
Extended Attribute Name |
A meaningful name that describes an extended attribute that has been added to a feature. |
|
|
Extended Attribute |
The configured name for an extended attribute that has been added to a feature. |
|
|
Value |
The default value applied to an extended attribute. |
Example
A Plant SCADA project includes an equipment type named ShutoffValve.
It includes two items:
-
OpenClosed
-
Control.
Both items have a variable tag element configured. OpenClosed also includes a digital alarm element.
During the import process into Application Server, the ShutoffValve equipment type is detected and represented in the Plant SCADA section of the Integration Report in the following way.
From this, you can determine the following:
-
The first row indicates a template was created to represent the ShutoffValve equipment type.
-
The second and third rows indicate that attributes were created to represent the Control and OpenClosed items.
-
The remaining rows indicate that four attributes were set to represent the digital alarm element.
This is also reflected in the Application Server section of the report. 
From this, you can determine the following:
-
The first row indicates a template named $ShutoffValve was created.
-
The second and third rows indicate that attributes named Control and OpenClosed were created.
-
The remaining rows indicate a state alarm feature was created for the OpenClosed attribute, and four Extended Attributes were configured with default values.
In Application Server, the $ShutoffValve template is available with the Control and OpenClosed attributes included.
For the OpenClosed attribute, you can see that the State Alarm feature has been configured with default values applied.
