Comprehensive automation solutions tailored to your industrial needs
Q2 2026 — Migration of control applications to a modernized platform, involving full configuration development, logic translation, and network setup. Comprehensive factory acceptance testing verifies metering operations, proving functions, and interface behavior to enable seamless hardware replacement. Project delivers validated configuration files, conversion tracking documentation, and test records to support deployment and future maintainability.
Q2 2026 — Engineers execute remote commissioning, validate updated PLC logic, and prepare for final control system deployment. The team conducts pre-download verification, installs modified programs, and performs functional testing of safety and drive interfaces.
Q4 2026 — Automation logic and HMI interface updates integrate new pump stations and remove decommissioned equipment. Activities include control system reconfiguration, VFD synchronization programming, signal exchange documentation, and end-to-end functional testing.
Q4 2026 — Continuous maintenance and optimization of control system logic and HMI interfaces to ensure operational reliability. Activities include routine system validation, performance diagnostics, documentation updates, and final handover.
Q4 2026 — Engineers develop PLC logic and HMI interfaces for tank mixing infrastructure. The team conducts remote system validation, functional testing, and commissioning support to verify operational readiness.
The Issue The BIOS clock on a Windows machine affects how the operating system interprets time — and this can have downstream effects on PLC communication timestamps, historian data, and software licensing. How It Works Windows assumes the BIOS time is set to local time (in your configured timezone). If the BIOS is set to […]
Read MoreThe Reality On many projects, PID loop tuning is deferred. The project team or operations may prefer to wait until the station is fully in service, running under actual process conditions, before tuning the loops. This is understandable — tuning against real process behavior gives better results than tuning on simulated or unloaded conditions. The […]
Read MoreThe Bug In Aveva InTouch, when you create a new window with a hyphen (-) in the name, InTouch silently converts the hyphen to an underscore (_). However, older existing windows that were created with hyphens in previous versions of InTouch retain their hyphenated names and continue to work. Why This Matters If your naming […]
