Outpost2 SCADA Software

Designed for the water and wastewater industry, MultiTrode's Outpost2 SCADA Software is built around MultiSmart, but can accommodate any product. Use of OPC and DNP3 protocols ensures an open system.

Outpost 2 Water & Wastewater SCADA System

Proven Platform - Genesis32

 
Outpost 2 is built on a proven platform, the GENESIS32™ OPC web-enabled HMI/SCADA suite from ICONICS. ICONICS is an award-winning Microsoft Gold Certified Partner provider of Web-enabled, OPC-based, HMI/SCADA Visualization and Manufacturing Intelligence software for Microsoft Windows operating systems, including the new Windows Vista™. With a single development tool based on open industry standards, ICONICS products run on multiple Windows platforms including Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows XP Professional x64, Windows 2000, Pocket PC, Embedded XP, Windows 2003 Server and Windows 2003 Server x64.
 
ICONICS has successfully deployed more than 225,000 solutions in over 60 countries worldwide. Its solutions meet diverse customer needs in a variety of industries including Automotive, Building Management, Food & Beverage, Oil/Gas/Petrochemical, Machine Builders, Pharmaceutical/Biotech, Security, Water/Wastewater, Utilities, Government Infrastructures and more. ICONICS' OEM partners include Siemens, Hach, Johnson Controls, Mitsubishi and Endress+Hauser. These leading companies private brand ICONICS solutions, using them as their own SCADA offerings in some or all of their business units.
 
A four-time nominated Microsoft Corp. Partner of the Year Finalist over the past three years, ICONICS offers "the next generation of software automation", providing the industry's only suite of fully-integrated OPC-based solutions available for Windows.  ICONICS has a very strong technical alliance with Microsoft. According to Microsoft, there are 5,000 Gold Certified Partners out of a total of 775,000 partners worldwide. ICONICS is among the less than 1 percent of Microsoft's partners to achieve Gold Certified Partner level, which is an outstanding achievement.



Open to the Core

 
ICONICS has a fully open architecture, using OPC extensively. OPC is the most widely used open protocol in the SCADA industry. It allows different vendor products to communicate with each other without needing to write drivers from one product to another. One of the best features of OPC is the way an OPC server "publishes" tags to the network, so an OPC client can view the tags in a Windows Explorer style hierarchy, rather than having to know the obscure naming convention for the tags from that manufacturer.
 
ICONICS platform is "OPC-To-The-Core™", meaning that each component (the trend system, the alarm system, the graphical HMI, etc.) all have OPC interfaces. This means the system is totally open, without requiring users to be locked into one supplier.
 
ICONICS also fully supports the OPC Unified Architecture (OPC-UA) standard, a robust, secure and scalable expansion of the highly successful basic COM/DCOM-based OPC standard communication protocol. OPC-UA allows the interoperability of best-of-breed real-time, alarm management and historian systems. This allows for a standard model of plant floor integration with the enterprise. Any plant system that is currently using OPC communications can easily add OPC-UA applications to their existing system, giving them the added value of Web services that allow for more enterprise connectivity.
 
ICONICS is a charter member of the OPC Foundation - www.opcfoundation.org - and plays a key role in assisting with the OPC-UA specification. ICONICS president and CEO Russ Agrusa is an OPC Foundation Board Member as well as the Marketing Chairman and Director, leading the Foundation's efforts in marketing OPC technology and generating new members. ICONICS was first to introduce an OPC production-grade toolkit to the market, and more than 300 companies depend on ICONICS for their OPC toolkit today.

Advanced Functionality

 
SCADA systems usually consist of graphic screens (the human machine interface), trends, alarms and reporting and GENESIS32 is no exception. The Outpost system demonstrates a lot of the basic capabilities of GENESIS32. More advanced users may appreciate multiple other features of GENESIS2. GENESIS32 has drag and drop ActiveX controls for trends and alarms. Users can go into configuration mode, drag an alarm ActiveX onto a page and go back into runtime mode in a few seconds. The same can be done with trend screens.
 
Data points on a screen can be simply dragged onto a trends window to instantly start trending. Alternatively, users can browse through OPC tags and select the ones that are required. Historical tags can be selected just as easily. And all this can be done while the SCADA system is running.
 
ICONICS also includes modules for:
  • PDAs (via PocketGenesis™)
  • Mobile Phones (via MobileHMI™)
  • Advanced Reporting (via ReportWorX™)
  • Web-based Organization Portals (via PortalWorX™)
  • Visual OEE, KPIs and Analysis (via BizViz™ Productivity Analytics)
