High Historical Data Integrity
The ControlWave Historical Data Collection sys-
tem provides time-stamped historical data storage
in ControlWave nonvolatile Flash memory. The
historical data is collected, through OpenBSI, on a
schedule or demand basis and converted to .CSV
and ODBE compliant le formats for use spread-
sheet and database reports. If data is missed due
to a communication failure, it is collected when the
communication is reestablished and the PC histori-
cal database is backlled with the missing data.
This distributed historical database architecture
proveides the greatest data reliability and integrity
during communication or PC downtime.
Another important historical feature is the Audit
storage and collection system. The audit trail is a
le stored in ControlWave Flash memory containing
signicant events and time-stamped alarms. The
alarms stored in the Audit system provide a histori-
cal archive in addition to the real-time alarm report-
ing system. This le is also collected through Open-
BSI and presented as a text le in the PC. This
Archive Collection – collection and storage to
disk of the ControlWave archive data
Audit Collection - collection and storage to disk
of the ControlWave audit data.

OPC Server
With industry demand for open standards,
ControlWave answers the call by embracing tech-
nologies that open the door for maximizing your
efciency and productivity. The OPC standard was
developed by the OPC Foundation comprised of
hardware and software suppliers from the process
control community. OPC allows the engineer to
select best in class hardware and software with con-
dence in their interoperability. Our OpenBSI OPC
Server was among the rst to comply with the OPC
Foundation alarm and event server specication.
