Prosoft Technology's PC56-Historian offers high-speed, real-time and efficient data collection for Rockwell Automation's ControlLogix platform.
Prosoft Technology's PC56-Historian offers high-speed, real-time and efficient data collection for Rockwell Automation's ControlLogix platform.
The PC56-Historian offers the operational intelligence and excellence you've been waiting for in historical data collection.
The embedded Echo Historian software from OSIsoft provides optimum high-speed, time series data storage for any process, and allows customers to perform data collection in an efficient, distributed, and cost-effective manner.
The PC56-HIST provides an audit trail and data flags for tracking modified, inserted, or incomplete data, making it the ideal solution for users needing to implement an electronic data storage solution for process validation and compliance reporting.
For IT professionals, the PC56-Historian is a PC that can run either Microsoft Windows 2000 or XP operating systems and seamlessly deliver plant floor data to enterprise systems.
It is perfect for ease of configuration and data retrieval while making enterprise connectivity a snap.
Manufacturing professionals will appreciate that this rugged PC plugs right into popular Allen-Bradley ControlLogix chassis.
No extra installation or wiring is required.
Installing and configuring a PC56-Historian will not effect the operation of ControlLogix control programming.
PC56-Historian makes it easy for IT and manufacturing to effectively reach their goals for improved product quality, meeting regulatory standards, process optimisation, and ease of use.
The PC56-Historian features a standard configuration tool that enables easy set up of real-time data collection, directly across the backplane of an Allen-Bradley ControlLogix chassis.
Data are efficiently stored on the PC56-Historian and can be accessed by other software running on it or remotely through a network connection.
