Hi,
I'm conducting a pilot study to create a SCADA-connected model. I have successfully connected the model to the SCADA data at the balancing and service tanks for comparison purposes. The upstream boundary of the simulation will be a treatment plant, which provides flow and pressure data from a pipeline outlet that fed from a set of pumps to a balancing reservoir. I aim to run a live and continuous simulation that uses the flow and pressure data and projects results 3-5 hours ahead of the current boundary conditions.
I require assistance to properly configure the model to run automatically.
This may be more of a calibration exercise, to get the model pump flows to match the real system (instead of trying to force them via SCADA signal readings). SCADAConnect can help you bring in signals to compare field data to model data, and override initial conditions to match the normally-changing conditions like tank levels and pump status.

That is correct.
Haniff Ismail said:Based on the available article citex platform unable to be integrated with another platform directly and best to convert to OPC server. Please confirm. Thanks.
We recommend that you connect directly to the Historian if possible, instead of using a connection like Citect. This is a Best Practice as the Historian will be read-only and is typically outside of any SCADA firewall.
