  1. The Ateneo SCADA Project Automation of Room F-311 Electronics, Computer and Communications Engineering Program School of Science and Engineering Ateneo de Manila University Loyola Heights., Quezon City <home> - a proactive and productive management approach wants - real-time business productivity information compared with - profitability indices, allowing production to be - redirected towards better profitability now and not later

  2. <home> Presentation Includes • An Introduction • Project Technical Discussions 1. Overview 2. Features 3. Block Diagrams 4. Technical Details • Conclusion • Appendices SCADA stands for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition

  3. <home> I. Introduction The Information Age - a business manages profitability in revenues and costs - profitability is decreased as the costs increase - persists until the next management review process - profitability is eroded by the minute Variances - “the past week” VS “the week before last” - “month to date” VS “month to date last month (or last year)” History - “Variance” looks at history

  4. <home> I. Introduction Proactive - now and not later - a proactive and productive management approach wants - real-time business productivity information compared with - profitability indices, allowing production to be - redirected towards better profitability now and not later <home>

  5. <home> I. Introduction IT : "accurate, relevant, and timely" * “on-line”, “real-time” business information * transcend the traditional “variance” review * “rate of change of variance” * automatically inform responsible officials * no more waiting for the next management review process * the “rate of change of variance” a the guiding principle

  6. <home> I. Introduction IT : "accurate, relevant, and timely" * profitability trends that can become disadvantageous can be spotted and immediately corrected * trends that are advantageous could lead the company to ask the question, “what did we do right?” so that it can be assessed and replicated

  7. <home> I. Introduction • the setting - the conversion of Room F-311 into an intelligent room • the Ateneo SCADA Project - introduces students the awareness of profitability as the primordial goal • the technology that they bring with them - supportive of this goal

  8. <home> I. Introduction Each control function - resides in independent computers (as in “distributed control systems” or DCS) - managed by a “local master” through the communication ports - Failure in this communication system makes the independent computers perform their “fail safe” functions

  9. <home> I. Introduction • “ingress and egress” functions • illumination function - amount of energy • air-conditioning function - amount of energy removed • air-circulation function • “local master” function • “remote master” function added feature illumination and temperature sensors designed / built by the project, not procured

  10. <home> I. Introduction * communication with “remote master” - anywhere in the world is by telephone - provides added security to the system * dynamic plots and graphs of profitability and cost indices reside at the “remote master” * normal conditions - all control parameters (“set points”) - originate from the “remote master” - simulates the active control of Head Office

  11. <home> II. Technical Discussions 1. Overview 2. Features 3. Block Diagrams 4. Technical Details

  12. <home> 1. Overview To the students’ credit - a strong commitment to the project - course framework derived from three sessions of class planning

  13. <home> 1. Overview control philosophy - all systems will "fail" on the safe side - for example . case : failure of the local master > air-con will shut down > lighting system continues . case - failure of PC > shut down lights and fans > shut down air-con

  14. <home> 1.

  27. <home> Logic of AirCon Control AirCon Control averages readings of two sensors * compares it average with the set-point from local master * normal - plus/minus 0.5 degree Celsius from the average * system shuts off the compressor when average temperature is 0.5 degree below the set-point * the converse not turn on the compressor elapsed time monitor that - "allows" - "prevents" * mechanical reason

  42. H. Some Highlights * project used surplus materials from past experiments * thyristors were procured from a surplus store in Marikina * temperature sensing elements - base-emitter junction of 2N2222 * light sensing elements - light sensitive resistors * components mostly LM555, LM741, GP transistors, opto-isolators * functions could be performed by lower level computers - XT, AT, 386, 486, Pentium, or higher <home>

  43. III. Conclusion Some ask : why do you have to re-invent the wheel? * our answer : we Filipinos must learn to - to re-invent and - to create for our technology to mature - to develop our “freedom to think” - to take pride in our technology <home>

  44. III. Conclusion * we strongly suggest for a very strong national program that puts value to - initiatives that unleash the Filipino's creative potentials * we want our graduates - to introduce value - be happy for the feeling - take pride that he has done so <home>

  45. IV. Appendix Outline of Learning Elements Precaution section - Since this is an interface project between the PC and various other devices, a precaution was made that all interconnections be done through an opto-isolator IC (4N25) Analog sectiono the LM555, LM741, 2N2222, 2N2907 and several other electronic components proved formed the platform for the learning processo the ability to use potentiometers in designing circuits proved to be effective time-savers for adjusting the quiescent state “zero” levels, and the required “span” Analog sensorso the base-emitter junction of the 2N2222 was utilized as the sensing element for temperatureo the light-sensitive resistor was utilized as the sensing element for illuminationo as a matter of policy, the project deliberately avoided purchasing calibrated, ready-made sensorso this enabled the project to “create” sensors, in contrast to “using” sensors <home>

  46. IV. Appendix Outline of Learning Elements Microcomputer and software sectiono show outline of software to directly control hardware portso single‑step each assembler mnemonic command o in the case of “output” commands to see how the hexadecimal code at the microprocessor’s AX register is reflected at each of the pins of the specified computer port, whose address is contained in the DX registero in the case of input commands, to see if the content of the microprocessor’s AL register reflects the digital code presented at each of the pins of the input port, whose address is contained in the DX register Digital output hardware section o this section is composed of logic gates (74LS00, 74LS02, 74LS04), multiplexers (74LS258), latches (74LS273), and other TTL-compatible deviceso an output command, which is intended for a digital function is sent to an 8-bit latch, which is duly enabled in timeo similarly, an output command, which is intended for an function is sent to an 8-bit latch, duly enabled, and sent to a digital-to-analog converter (DAC)o this analog signal would become one of the following set‑point values: (a) the set‑point for the illumination, (b) the set‑point for the temperature control, and (c) the set‑point for the fan speed.o input function <home>

  47. IV. Appendix Outline of Learning Elements Digital input hardware section o this section is composed of the same TTL and TTL-compatible devices as the digital output hardware sectiono in this case, an input command takes data from an analog value, which has been digitized at the analog-to-digital converter (DAC), whose output is stored in a latcho the multiplexer (74LS258) takes the higher four bits (nibble) and sends it to four status pins of the printer porto the software reads this value into the microcomputer’s AL register and is shifted to the AH registero the multiplexer then takes the lower four bits and sends it to the same four status pins of the printer porto the software again reads it into the AL registero the combination becomes the value of the digital code presented to the computer Interface between the analog and digital signals - the LM555, LM741, 2N2222 and the 2N2907 have proven to be among the most convenient interface devices for shifting between analog to TTL and vice-versa <home>

  48. IV. Appendix Outline of Learning Elements The communication interface between computerso the serial port of the PC is designed for one machine communicating with another machineo this design is for exclusive one‑to‑one communicationo a one‑to‑many, or a many‑to‑many, communication is often done with the use of hardware converters that could become quite expensiveo a one‑to‑many communication was achieved by the project with the use of very inexpensive hardware, consisting of opto-isolators to convert voltage levels found in RS232 ports into current loops and vice versa with the use of the opto-isolator 4N25. <home>

  49. IV. Appendix Outline of Learning Elements The communication interface with a remote computero interface with a remote computer was via a 56K modemo the use of non-standard communication protocols and software is one way of changing communication encoding algorithms at willo this means that secure data transfer can be achieved without going for the purchase of software that can be rather expensive or engage consultant/vendor assistance to achieve the purposeo the remote computer (or “remote master”) has the specific function of gathering business information so that it can plot trends in profitability.o it assigns costs to the energy consumed in the electrical appliances in the roomo it also assigns hourly costs to each individual present in the room The security sectiono a person seeking access to the room will enter his unique codeo he also enters the same unique code when he leaves the roomo the system acknowledges a valid code, opens the door’s dead bolt, and keeps track of the time the person stayed in the room <home>

  50. IV. Appendix Outline of Learning Elements The power section - power is controlled at six (6) points, namely 1) the “on/off” switch of the airconditioner for a maximum instantaneous current of about 1 ampere at 230 volts for the coils of a pilot relay 2) the compressor of the airconditioner with a maximum instantaneous current of about 120 amperes at 230 volts 3) one bank of light bulbs with 200 watts with independent variable energy control to achieve the desired illumination levels 4) another bank of light bulbs with 200 watts, also with independent variable energy control to achieve the desired illumination levels 5) a bank of two ceiling fans with an approximate maximum load of about 100 watts, also provided with independent variable energy speed control to provide the necessary air circulation to make the temperature readings a around the room as uniform as possible 6) power to a 2-ampere reversible DC motor that controls the “dead bolt lock” of the door <home>
