SCADA User Interface

The objectives of the SCADA user interface are to:

Present data that accurately represents the state of the monitored system.

Alert the SCADA operator to potential problems in the monitored system and in the communications system.

Allow the operator to carry out control operations on the monitored system and to alter the configuration of the communications system.

Allow the operator to enter values for measurements and limits. For example, the operator can override a telemetered value and enter new limits for analog points.

Help the operator access measurements in a specific state for a quick overview of the system.
