Introduction

Advantech WebAccess/SCADA is a 100% web-based SCADA software solution/IIoT platform with open interfaces for developing IoT applications aimed at various vertical markets.

It also acts as a gateway for collecting data from ground equipment and transferring the data to cloud applications via MQTT publish/subscribe. In addition to traditional SCADA

functions, WebAccess/SCADA features an HTML5-based intelligent dashboard that enables cross-platform, cross-browser data analysis.

The basic components of WebAccess/SCADA are as follows:

1. Project Node: This is the project development platform. It also acts as a web server for all clients to connect to development projects, thus facilitating remote monitoring and system

control. All system configuration settings, project database files, and graphics are stored in this node.

2. SCADA Node: With various built-in device drivers, this node enables real-time communication with and control over automation equipment via serial, Ethernet, or proprietary

communication protocols. It also provides real-time data access for all remote clients.

3. ViewDAQ Client: Through Microsoft Internet Explorer's ActiveX control, ViewDAQ Client monitors and controls the SCADA node. Clients must first connect to the project node to

obtain the SCADA node address before they can communicate directly with the SCADA node. Data can be visualized in real time as dynamic graphics, presenting historical trends

and alarm information for the user. ViewDAQ Client can be used to acknowledge alarms and adjust set-point data, status data, and other information.

4. Dashboard Client: This enables users to access the dashboard server via any browser on any platform (e.g., computer, pad, or smartphone) with iOS, Android, or Windows.

5. WebAccess APP: This provides a new interface for displaying usage information. Connecting to the WebAccess server enables users to perform remote monitoring of control points

and alarms while visualizing trends and communication statuses via the dashboard. Additionally, it provides push notifications for mobile devices.

Feature Details

100% Web-Based Architecture

WebAccess/SCADA is a 100% web-based SCADA software application. As Advantech’s

core IoT application platform, it provides a unique environment for development and

remote maintenance, allowing access to and manipulation of data stored on a central

server. This enables the configuring, changing/updating, and remote monitoring of

equipment, projects, and systems worldwide via a standard web browser, thus saving

time that would otherwise be required for system development. WebAccess/SCADA

Professional comes with 32 clients at no extra cost, which, compared to other similar

products, can save a considerable amount of money for system integrators. For edge

computing application, WebAccess/SCADA also publishes real-time and historical data to

private/public cloud platforms via MQTT, thus providing a database for big data intended

for use in cloud applications.

WISE-PaaS/Dashboard & WISE-PaaS/SaaS Composer

With the integration of WISE-PaaS/Dashboard cloud version, vivualization is brought to

a new level. By using the Chronium kernal embeded to ViewDAQ client, anything you

can implement using WISE-PaaS/Dashboard can be viewed together with your exisiting

drawings. Furthermore, WISE-PaaS/SaaS Composer allows customers to show the

shopfloor status in either 2D or 3D diagrams, allowing a more obvious overview of the

status.

WebAccess APP

WebAccess APP is the new mobile app for WebAccess/SCADA 8.3 and above, with support

ffor iOS 10 and Android 5 and above. With Node.js as the underlying data transport layer,

data can be immediately transferred to phones.

Open Interface

WebAccess/SCADA offers several types of interfaces, including RESTful API and SignalR,

for various applications. First, a web service interface allows partners to integrate

WebAccess data into their apps or application systems. Second, a pluggable widget

interface enables programmers to develop widgets and run Dashboard 2.0. Finally,

WebAccess API provides a DLL interface for programmers to access the WebAccess

platform and develop related Windows applications. By supporting these interfaces,

WebAccess serves as a platform for developing IoT applications in various vertical markets.

Supports Multiple Drivers

WebAccess/SCADA supports hundreds of devices. In addition to supporting Advantech I/O

devices and controllers, it supports all major programmable logic controllers, controllers,

and I/O devices by manufacturers such as Allen Bradley, Siemens, LonWorks, Mitsubishi,

Beckhoff, and Yokogawa. For vertical market applications, WebAccess/SCADA supports the

DNP 3.0 protocol, which was developed for the power and energy industry. It also supports

standard protocols such as Modbus, OPC DA, and OPC UA, and can be easily integrated

with other SCADA software. All of these device drivers are integrated into WebAccess/

SCADA at no extra cost. Please refer to the driver list for information on supported devices.
