SIMOCRANE CMS Crane Management System
SIMOCRANE RCMS
■
Overview
RCMS single station and server-client architectures –
Central and remote CMS configurations
Example of architecture for local and remote Crane Management System
based on SIMOCRANE CMS/RCMS product
Larger plants/terminals usually have a control room with one or
more operator stations, used to monitor the entire plant/terminal.
The data from all subordinate local CMS stations is collected and
evaluated in the control room.
In combination with a multi-user system on the crane, remote ac-
cess to the local CMS stations is also possible here.
Depending on the number of lower-level CMS stations and the
volume of data which is to be recorded and archived for the en-
tire plant/terminal, one or more servers will be required. In this
case, the server records the data for the local CMS stations of
the crane and then makes it available to the central
CMS operator stations, called RCMS too. The CMS server is
used as an application server for central software components
such as for maintenance planning, downtime monitoring, advan-
ced reporting etc.
Requirements:
•
Acquisition of productivity data and archiving for each crane
•
Alarm/event system with archiving for each crane
•
Error logs and productivity data logs
•
Visualization of the crane and individual components
•
Replayed data of the crane (playback function)
•
CMS computer is installed in the electrical room
•
Crane driver must have an operator panel in the cabin
•
Remote crane access must be possible from a maintenance
building
•
A central server must record and archive the data from all cra-
nes with long-term archiving using SQL database
•
Graphical evaluations must be possible in the control center
with regard to productivity, error statistics and availability
