Edmund Landrø IT-CO-FE UNICOS in LabVIEW 10 December, 2007 Tomas AasgårdEN-ICE 26 May, 2009 What is UNICOS? UNICOS (UNified Industrial COntrol System): Provide components, methodology and tools to design control systems. The UNICOS components are distributed in three layers: –The process control layer –The communication layer –The supervision layer Reduce the workload for the application developer.
Edmund Landrø IT-CO-FE UNICOS in LabVIEW 10 December, 2007 Tomas AasgårdEN-ICE 26 May, 2009 What is UiL? Light weight Have the main functionality of the PVSS part in UNICOS Easy to use, set up, modify and expand Works without any major changes to UNICOS PLC code Runs on LabVIEW 8.6 with DSC under Windows XP
Edmund Landrø IT-CO-FE UNICOS in LabVIEW 10 December, 2007 Tomas AasgårdEN-ICE 26 May, 2009 Why UiL? Some control systems are only expected to exist for a short period of time Others are small and simple Lack of time, manpower and resources to invest in PVSS It is intuitive, graphical, easy to learn, use and debug
Edmund Landrø IT-CO-FE UNICOS in LabVIEW 10 December, 2007 Tomas AasgårdEN-ICE 26 May, 2009 UiL vs UNICOS Compatible with already existing systems Site license on LabVIEW – LHC license on PVSS Easy to use, set up, modify and expand
