The Path to Seamless Integration

The integration of automation and enterprise systems require a change in the architecture

of open control systems. From Advantech's point of view, the level of integration between

automation and enterprise systems can only be accomplished through Internet technology.

The seamless level of integration between plant ﬂoor and ofﬁce ﬂoor has not been achieved

in all automation systems. However, many enterprises are approaching this goal.

The key element of the seamless integration is a common network architecture, which

breaks the traditional layers (enterprise layer, plant information layer, control layer and

device level layer, sensor layer ) that require a data gateway as an interface to communicate

between different layers. Industrial Ethernet is regarded as the most appropriate network

to accomplish the task in industrial automation.

It is believed that IP/Ethernet protocols will progress beyond the control layer, into the ﬁeld

layers. Placing remote I/O with IP/Ethernet connections on the shop ﬂoor is economical.

Advantech believes that over the next ﬁve years, Internet protocols over Ethernet will

dominate major ﬁeld connections. The Advantech ADAM-6000 series comprises industrial-

grade Ethernet hubs/switches/ﬁber optics for infrastructure Ethernet solutions in industrial

automation environments.

Control Strategy Moves to Field

Devices

It is a trend to move I/O to remote locations to reduce wiring costs. Remote I/O is

becoming smarter and equipped with control functions as they move from today's 16 to

64 I/O multi-plexers to the smallest remote I/O units, with perhaps as few as four I/O in

the near future as shown in Figure 1.

The ADAM-6000 series is designed to realize the concept of the smart I/O blocks. With

control algorithms and mathematical functions built in, the ADAM-6000 series is a

revolutionary smart I/O module close to the sensor layer in automation.

Web-Enabled Technology Becomes

Popular on Factory Floors

As Internet technologies and standards have rapidly developed over the past decade,

Web-based control methodologies now obviously represent a powerful opportunity

for extending efﬁcient network-based management techniques to encompass non-IT

real-world assets.

The ADAM-6000 series is equipped with a built-in web server so that its data can be viewed,

anytime-anywhere via the Internet. Moreover, ADAM-6000 allows users to conﬁgure

user-deﬁned web pages to meet the diverse needs in various applications. With this

powerful function, the ADAM-6000 series breaks the boundary of traditional multi-layer

automation architecture and allows users to access ﬁeld data directly in real time, which

enables seamless integration between the plant ﬂoor and the front ofﬁce.

HMI has provided a friendly operator interface for discrete control and sharply reduced

the cost and complexity of automation systems. A web server has been added to most

HMI software and a browser allows access to HMI displays from remote locations via the

network. The end user is able to see and use an identical HMI from any Internet connected

computer anytime, anywhere. ADAM-6000 can be be fully integrated with standard HMI

software which supports Modbus TCP/IP, including Advantech Studio.
