Scheduled Communications

Plant SCADA allows you to schedule communications with your I/O Devices (regardless of the type of connection: modem, radio link, etc.). For example, if you have multiple I/O Devices on a single network or line, you can schedule reads so that the important I/O Devices are read more often than less important I/O Devices. Alternatively, a water supplier with radio link connections to dam level monitors might schedule hourly level reads from Plant SCADA in order to conserve band-width.
