Optima Tracks is a PC software whose principal function is that of clock programmer, but it is much more than that. Optima Tracks is a powerful tool allowing for example to add conditions to the user programming.
Optima Tracks is conceived to be perfectly integrated into the automation and SCADA software set of Optimalog, but it can be used in a completely autonomous way.
To control the signals, so called "tracks" in the jargon of the building management, the user defines very simply the access to these tracks (via OPC servers, or on line for Optima PLC).
It also defines "preset days" with the timing of each track.
Lastly, it assigns to the dates of the calendar the days thus preset, to constitute planning. This assignment is made either automatically, thanks to some simple rules, or manually by drag and drop with the mouse. It is always possible to modify thereafter the adjustments for a particular date.
Once started, the clock controls the output signals by combining the timing defined by the user and the possible conditions programmed by the fitter. Where necessary, a signal can be temporarily forced. Special tracks are designed to transmit to the installation the status of the software.
The user interface of Tracks Optima was conceived to be as simplest and intuitive as possible, its learning by the users takes only a few minutes.
It is possible for you to download and test the product free for a 30 days duration. If you have questions concerning the product during this trial period, do not hesitate to contact us, we will do everything to assist you.
We are continuously listening to the needs for our customers. Do not hesitate to inform us of yours, we will take it into account very quickly in the evolution of the product.
Control software, specialized in the function of clock programmer, under Windows XP or Vista.
Direct connection locally or by protocol TCP/IP with the software Optima PLC and Apigraf.
Connection with any hardwara having an OPC server :
- possibility of using simultaneously as many OPC server as necessary
To 200 tracks managed in the initial version:
- Possibility of defining the timing of a track like copies of one to another track.
- Possibility of defining the output signal by a Boolean expression, in which local variables (time-stamping, state of the tracks, etc) or distant (since Optima PLC, Apigraf or OPC server) can be used.
Up to 100 possible preset days in the initial version.
- Functions allowing to accelerate the definition of the preset days, by memorizing of configuration schedules.
Rules of automatic attribution of preset day on a date, according to the day of the week and.
- Possibility of modifying the timing of the tracks for a particular date, without creation of a new preset day.
- Possibility of defining the elementary quantum of time of programming: 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, 20 min, 30 min, 60 min.
Integrated management of the users, with access rights with the software functionalities.
- Possibility of restricting or of extending the modification rights of the timing of some of the tracks.
Journalizing of the events related to the operation of the installation:
- stops, startings, login user, change of state of the signals of control…
Visualization of the instantaneous state of the tracks and the control signals.
- Indications of good performance.
- Indication of the next change programmed for each track.
Definition of special indicating tracks:
- indicator of run/stop of optima Tracks
- indicator of communication failure with a track, indicator of configuration failure of planning.
