UPMACS Development System
Monitor,
Alarm & Control Software
|
| The
UPMACS Development System... |
|
is the most affordable and flexible M&C development
tool on the market. With it, Station Owners
& Operators can leverage their in-house
resources to build new or maintain and grow existing
systems. System Integrators can
extend their service offerings to include full turn-key
M&C systems and services. This is the same tool
that has enabled UPMACS to consistently satisfy
its customers for years by delivering affordable,
feature rich turn-key M&C software solutions
in remarkably short development times. |
Build,
change and grow your systems quickly and easily |
The
UPMACS development system was designed with flexibility
and intuitiveness foremost in mind. An UPMACS
developer does not have to be an experienced programmer.
The system includes all the tools and on-line
help to make designing custom M&C systems
as easy as 1-2-3. UPMACS also offers developer
training and support to help shorten potential
learning curves. |
There
is a difference! |
Traditional
monitor, alarm, and control software solutions
rely on hard-coded functionality, any change in
equipment or functionality means a return to the
drawing board, re-linking and recompiling. UPMACS
reads information about the configuration and
functionality of a station from a proprietary
UPMACS Station File which contains information
about the visual display of data, the interface
protocols required to communicate with the equipment,
port configurations and polling sequences, and
about every other aspect of the functionality
of the system.

Built-in SCL
(Simple Control Language) program editor
with syntax coloring for easy development of
application specific control functions
|
| Simple
Control Language (SCL) |
SCL has over 200 commands and functions covering
everything from serial communications to launching
Windows applications and executing DOS commands.
SCL is one of the reasons the possibilities with
UPMACS are limitless.
SCL programs can be used in many ways:
- To
decode and process nonstandard data from equipment
or other sources
-
To perform controls when an operator presses
a button
-
To perform automatic controls when certain events
happen
- To
record detailed information about events
- To
perform automated tasks at startup, at intervals,
or at scheduled times and dates
- To
perform tasks from within third-party software
via TCP/IP sockets
- To
record or compile information in text or binary
files
The SCL programming language enables
you to build virtually any functionality into
an UPMACS station. You could, for example, have
an SCL program dial into a head-office computer
using a modem and phone line and send a report
when an alarm occurs.
Since
the SCL Programming language is based on BASIC,
it is easy to use even without prior programming
experience.
