BAKERSFIELD, Calif., March 2006 - ProSoft Technology’s new ProLinx 7000 Application Server (AppSrvCE) delivers communication protocols and a powerful embedded data historian, all together in one dynamic package. Pat Kennedy, CEO of OSIsoft comments that, “Embedding OSIsoft historian technology so the user can acquire and use high fidelity data right at its source—as Prosoft has done—creates significant value for users of the RtPM Platform.” The AppSrvCE is fully customizable and programmable (including ‘C’ programming), supporting multiple automation programming languages. The Application Server’s high performance data historian is capable of logging up to 500 tags of real-time data at sub-second speeds.
Cost effective, quick and easy to implement The AppSrvCE is ideal for users who require a high-level of customization/programming plus real-time historical data such as: process optimization, compliance reporting (FDA, EPA, etc.), emissions monitoring, pharmaceutical manufacturing, sequence-of-event recording or remote applications like utility RTUs, compressor and facilities monitoring.ProLinx 7000 benefits include:
- More cost effective solution than multiple, single-use devices.
- All data is accessible using OSIsoft’s PI server
- CAM (Custom Application Module) option: adds 5 serial ports, allowing further customization to meet specific individual hardware/application requirements.
- Remotely configurable/upgradeable via Ethernet.
- Easy-to-implement, off-the-shelf solution.
- Very small foot print.
Data Historian
The AppSrvCE can log up to 500 tags of real-time data at sub-second speed.
As a standard feature all historical data is accessible using OSIsoft’s PI product.
Additionally, an OPC-HDA server can be added to allow open access to the historical data.
