Engineering Solutions

Solution in brief
SoCollaborative Engineering helps you to accelerate your control system configuration, significantly reducing your engineering time and minimising your project risk.
You have everything you need in one pack to configure your system

Value proposition
Reduced project schedules
A combination of single data entry, feature-rich object libraries, collaboration with third party process design software and the ability to standardize and reuse your engineering best practises helps to dramatically decrease the time it takes to design, engineer, install and commission your system.

Minimise project risk
It delivers an object-based approach to your configuration and includes feature-rich application libraries specifically focused on the process industry.

Integration with process design software
The openness of SoCollaborative Engineering means that you can easily exchange process and system design data with third party applications and remote engineering teams, removing the need to configure the system from scratch.

Differenciation factor
SoCollaborative software supports collaboration, driving efficiency for engineering, operation and maintenance teams.

SoCollaborative Engineering is a collaborative software pack to configure your system.
It includes:

Advanced software for design and configuration

Unity Pro is designed for IEC61131-3 programming, debugging and operation of Modicon M340, Premium and Quantum programmable automation controllers.
- Vijeo Citect, to design the operation environment of your system
Vijeo Citect is a reliable, flexible and high performance SCADA system
Web Designer, to design Web based diagnostics and monitoring applications
It provides easy and intuitive design of the Web based diagnostic and monitoring application for the Modicon PACs built-in Web servers.

Management of the system from a single location
Choose the system configuration tool that matches your engineering workflow
- UAG, to design your project in the exact image of your process
- sg², the object-based approach to your control system configuration process

Integrated diagnostics, access control and logging of operation actions
Engineers can use the tested and validated libraries as they are or take advantage of their extensible nature in order to augment the library to meet specific standards.

Communication
- OPC Factory Server is based on the OPC protocol, OFS (OPC Factory Server) software enables Windows client applications to access Modicon PLC data in real time
