Cockpit user is alerted to the fleet situation indicating thatA key variable or process is not within tolerances

An appropriate resource verifies thatthe occurrence is a valid alert

A subject matter expert selectsthe appropriate follow-up action to be taken

The event is acknowledged, logged & corrective action is scheduled or initiated

Cockpit enablescollaborative view ability


Cockpit Alarm Hierarchy

Siemens Fact: Three out of every four cars on the road in the United States rely on Sylvania lighting technologies.

Using PI SMT Cockpit builds a detailed alarm hierarchy based on the object model shown earlier.

Pi Alarm Points

Pi Alarm Groups


OSIsoft AlarmView

Original version of AlarmView that was used as the workflow application.

Alarm Grouping Structure allows for alarm list filtering

Current alarms and their associated priority level

The user can acknowledge alarms

Alarm Grouping Structure allows for alarm list filtering


Updated version of AlarmView with a much improved UI.

OSIsoft AlarmView

Comments can be entered and if a comment exists this icon changes.

Comment properties are shown for the selected alarm. This shows the

source value the limits and dead band for easy confirmation of event.


• The structure for the enterprise is delivered as a template

• The model is embedded in the MDB basic structure

• Modular segments can be copied, completed and parameterized while project engineering continues

Fleet Entity Modeling and Cockpit Object Sstructure

Siemens Fact: Radiation therapy systems from Siemens treat more than 30,000 cancer patients every business day in the United States.


Siemens Cockpit using RtGraphic

Multi-state Symbols used for Operator Guidance

Alarm Counters based on Custom Siemens Calculations using PI-Ace

Siemens Fact: Siemens has negotiated more than $3 billion in energy supply contracts on behalf of its customers and has guaranteed $1.5 billion in energy savings since 1965.


Siemens Cockpit using RtGraphic

Cockpit Allows for drill-down to all major components using the

Sharepoint Tree

Each of the major components shows an operator guidance point that is color coded using Cockpit’s

alarm handling functions

All Alarm points can be selected to drill down to the appropriate application for more detail

Alarm Points are shown in red using PI’s multi-state object

Siemens Custom ASP and Custom PI-ACE calculations allows operators to process

alarms


Selecting on an alarm item allows the user to drill into the appropriate analytical tool.

Vibration Monitoring drill-down


Siemens Cockpit using ActiveViewSiemens Cockpit using PI

ActiveView allows the user to fully interact with this module

A Cockpit User can click on any point on the line to show the values

in that point in time

A Cockpit User can move the slider bar to move through time.


Siemens Cockpit using PI API’s

Using the Siemens custom interfaces, PI API’s and Crystal Reports, Cockpit users can generate boardroom quality reports.

Siemens Fact: Every third phone call worldwide is processed with Siemens technology.


Siemens Cockpit using the Portal Framework

Using the portal framework any NewEnergy and Siemens applications can be integrated easily.

Forecasted LMP’s generated from

NewEnergy’s Promod Powerbase and Map

agent


Siemens T3000 Integrated in Cockpit allows for Plant Automation

Siemens Cockpit using the Portal Framework

Siemens Fact: In 1928, Siemens invented the Protos turbo washing machine, a drum-type machine which could both wash and spin-dry its load.

Technical Lessons Learned

• In order to get RtWebParts to install properly do it twice.

• To prevent excessive “clicking” use davcopy.exe to batch uploads to Sharepoint Portal.

• If you have a choice between using ActiveView or RtGraphic, use RtGraphic.

• You need a web expert to create custom SharePoint templates.
