MicroSCADA is a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) software developed by ABB. It is used for real-time monitoring and control of power networks. MicroSCADA can be used to supervise and control various electrical applications, such as substations, power grids, and distribution networks. This thesis explores the use of predictive maintenance for MicroSCADA applications.

7.3.4 Creating a Command Procedure for Report Creator

Now the process objects are linked to the event and command procedure and every communication alarm activates a program that counts them for each of the stations.

The next step is creating a report of these alarms. A new command procedure

“STA_ALARM_REPORT” should be created in the Object Navigator. In the

“Instruction (IN)” field, the code presented in Appendix 2 should be inserted.

This code creates a report of communication alarms in the stations and saves it as a text file in the root of the MicroSCADA folder. The report is only created if it is currently first day of the month. This is made because

“STATION_ALARM_REPORT” command procedure is run daily, but the report is needed to be created only once a month. The program goes through every process object with the logical name of “SYS_S*I” and index of 10. It writes their logical name, index, object states, object text and number of alarms occurred

Frequently Answers and Questions

What is MicroSCADA?
MicroSCADA is a software application developed by ABB for supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) of power networks. It provides real-time monitoring and control of electrical systems.
What are the benefits of predictive maintenance for MicroSCADA applications?
Predictive maintenance can help to identify potential problems before they occur, which can reduce downtime and improve the reliability of the system. It also helps to optimize maintenance costs and increase the lifespan of equipment.
How can predictive maintenance be implemented in MicroSCADA applications?
Predictive maintenance can be implemented by monitoring key parameters of the system, such as communication activity, system resource usage, and alarm frequency. This information can be used to identify potential problems and schedule maintenance proactively.
