    This article presents a method to implement the Human Machine Inter-face (HMI) for providing high visibility of dual-loop system to encourage good operations and maintenance practices. The proposed method is based on the employment of radar chart to display key performance metrics of simultaneous and independent control of two identical loops for extensive event monitoring. Two level control loops utilizing two Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) function blocks of a single Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) are used as the case study to show the workability of the proposed HMI implementation. Each loop consists of a transmitter for measuring the controlled level an inverter for inverting the PLC output to adjust a pump speed, and a power meter form easuring the pump power consumption. The transmitter outputs from both control loops are applied to the PLC analog input module, and then separately scaled to be available to each PID block. The PLC analog output module is used to pass the PID block outputs for manipulating inlet flow rates. The performance metrics including the set point, process variable, manipulated variable, and pump power consumption of both control loops are detected and collected by the HMI/Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA)station. All detected data of four performance metrics are represented on the axes of radar chart in real time by using the Wonder ware In Touch software. The script functions to save and load the specified data to the SQL server database are also created on the HMI/SCADA station. Experimental results confirm that the proposed HMI implementation can function correctly.

    In order to improve a maintenance of wet scrubber operation for achieving harmful and polluting gas removal efficiency at a latex glove manufacturer in Thailand, this paper presents a technique to implement the real-time monitoring and reporting alarm system for pH measurement in wet scrubbers. All pH meter outputs are applied to an existing programmable logic controller (PLC) slave located on the master-slave network for production line control. A PLC master is communicated to an operator workstation running the supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) software. In addition, measurement data from the SCADA software are automatically transferred to the statistical process control (SPC) software installed in a data historian server. Traditional routine manual data collection and non real-time email notification are replaced by the proposed system, which provides the continuous automatic data collection as well as the real-time display and alarm functions. The automatic and reliable email notification in real time can be also obtained. Experimental results verifying the performance of the proposed system are also included.

    Wireless Technology has promoted in the process automation because it does not require power and communication wiring for field instruments that enables reduced engineering cost. At the same time, end-users consider the developments of process automation by using wireless devices due to the growing of the new plants and replacing analog or wired HART plants. The paper presents a technique to modify wired HART device to be WirelessHART device and to configure it for communication with other WirelessHART devices. A PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) and SCADA system is used to provide centralized device information, historian, and HMI. Installation and configuration techniques of wired HART, THUM adapter or repeater, WirelessHART, HART gateway are described. In addition, engineering and SCADA software are assigned based on OPC to share WirelessHART data with gateway, PLC and SCADA system. The experimental results by using S7-300 Siemens PLC, WW InTouch, and HART devices in level process control are included to confirm the system workability. Moreover, the technique could be applied to collect data for end-user support to quickly and easily gain the benefits of device diagnostic and to decide the plant operation and planning.
