www.cse-semaphore.com Semaphore T-VIEW T-VIEW — advanced, front end interface for T-BOX networks T-VIEW is Semaphore’s intelligent communications interface between remote sites and central control rooms. T-VIEW is a data aggregator that fully exploits the power of the Internet by providing software tools to transfer and export archive data from remote stations to the majority of database software in use today. T-VIEW is, in a sense, the missing link between conventional SCADA architecture and decentralized Internetbased architecture. It provides the best of both worlds by offering a solution that is expandable, powerful, intuitive, ultra-simple, and low-cost. By using the existing infrastructure of Internet providers, a computer system running T-VIEW does not require a huge bank of modems to communicate with remote stations. Only one Internet or Intranet connection with the e-mail or FTP server is required. T-VIEW optimizes the capabilities of T-BOX automation/telemetry products and facilitates efficient configuration of SCADA networks using Internet technology.

T-VIEW Capabilities Push and pull communications with remote stations While traditional SCADA systems poll remote stations to upload historical data (“pull” technology), T-VIEW allows files to be sent on the initiative of the local RTU. Upon event or on a schedule, the RTU can provide alarms and historical archives to T-VIEW via e-mail or FTP transfer. For compatibility with existing systems, which use “pull” communications, T-VIEW also supports conventional polling of remote stations over a variety of networks, including Ethernet, GSM/GPRS, PSTN, radio, and satellite. A schedule for...

GPS mapping and representation Whether assets are at fixed locations or mobile, practically all SCADA systems can greatly benefit from a well-designed and managed GIS. T-VIEW supports the “shape” (.shp) file format and provides fast and reliable RTU locating and mapping representation without the high cost and steep learning curve associated with many GIS packages. T-VIEW’s vector-based mapping features produce high-resolution results at any scale. Advanced report generator An optional, advanced reporting module based on Dream Report™ can be added to T-VIEW. Dream Report is a professional...
