We provide control and monitoring for remote installations, typically in the utilities industry.

Products

>> Controlstar®

Controlstar® is a single flexible unit:
~ Replacing multiple devices
~ Reducing interface engineering
~ Reducing component count, and increased reliability
~ Lower Capex costs
~ A single licence free CAD package reduces training and maintenance costs
~ Remote diagnostics reduces commissioning and support costs.

>> Micro-Controlstar® 

>> Pulsar® 

~ Reduces the equipment test interval to a minimum
~ Trends accurately the onset of potential failure
~ Provides detailed analyses to identify failing components

>> Fusion

>> SCADA

>> Watchdog

>> Modules

Controlstars® modular Field bus I/O system uses CAN:

~ Each CAN node is composed of a maximum of 8 modules, configurable as any mix Digital and Analogue.
~ Each module handles up to 16 channels, the channel count being dependent on module type
~ A maximum of 10 CAN nodes connect to each Controlstar®
~ CAN encourages distributed system topologies, the CAN nodes can be separated by up to 500 meters, and larger distances are possible using repeaters or fibre optics
~ The CAN nodes report by exception, maximising system performance
~ The I/O Modules are self-configuring from a downloaded Fusion file; they include extensive diagnostics that are report visually via the SCADA.

 >> WITS Server

WITS is an established protocol and a data definition for the information generated during drilling activities.
