Why are Rate of Change Alarms used?
Rate of change alarms are used to predict an event that is abnormal behaviour for a system or process. The objective being in order to take preventative action in order to avoid system or process failure or damage. If a process value suddenly increases at a rate beyond the normal, then it indicates something unusual has changed in the system or process. This is different to an absolute (low or high) alarm.

Whitepaper discloses details of key nuclear projects
The nuclear industry is unique. Arguably, no industry is more regulated and there isn’t another sector where mission-critical safety systems matter more.
Remote monitoring specialist Omniflex has launched its nuclear safety whitepaper, discussing how to improve on-site safety by networking radiological monitors and updating alarm systems to SIL-standards. The whitepaper can be downloaded, free of charge from our website.

One Click is All It Takes to Complete Siemens PLC Tag Mapping with Easyview
Mapping PLC addresses to HMI addresses when importing PLC Tag Table and Program Blocks is a familiar problem that HMI project designers often encounter.
EasyBuilder Pro in conjunction with EasyView HMIs not only supports S7-1200/1500 user-defined types (UDT), Default Data Structures, and PLC Tags but it is also possible to import tags by importing PLC project created by TIA Portal into EasyBuilder Pro project in “One Click”.
All the PLC Tags and Program Blocks in the PLC project can be used in EasyBuilder Pro, which greatly improves project development efficiency.
