Scheduler
Timetable and hourly programs
|
How to prepare for up to one year, with a few mouse clicks, the time schedule of
any control. (This feature is a standard feature, part of all TOPKAPI Vision
packages).

Periods and operating modes
Define,
for your installation, periods corresponding to the different operating modes
and the parameters related to them. You will modify them later on according to
your needs.
Here, temperature set point values and lighting in a building.

Program AT once all the periodic actions
Define
different types of days matching the operation of your installation:
Friday is not a working day just like any other day as work ends earlier.

Program day types
Define for each type of days slots in the timetable
corresponding to the different operating modes.
The whole year schedule can be set in
this window (except for
special dispensations).

Particularities of operation
Define on the timetable up to one year
in advance the type assigned to each day (periodic days are automatically
assigned in the timetable).
In this example, November
25, 26 and 27 are defined as peak days. Without waiting for pre-peak signal
of your electricity supplier, it will be possible to anticipate the
load-shedding.
November 11 is defined as a holiday.
November 10 and 12 are redefined as a
Friday and a Monday (days preceding and following a holiday).
November 20 is displayed in reverse video
mode to indicate it is under a special dispensation to the timetable.

Visualize planning and dispensation
Visualize your planning and refine it with the help of
special dispensations.
The different colors correspond to periods and different operating modes defined
in the first stage.

CHARACTERISTICS
From 1 up to 10 types of days. Periodic days of the week automatically assigned,
assignment of other days by manual selection in the timetable.
From 1 up to 10 periods corresponding to the different operating modes
Analogue (instructions) or logical (Yes/No, Run/Stop, Rate 0/ Rate 1/2/…/ Rate
255, etc.) with labels freely configurable
Assignment of an operating mode for typical day (global programming) or directly
for a specific day in the timetable (dispensations), by choosing a period and
then by selecting with the mouse the time slot.
Programming up to one year in advance, the previous three months being also
saved, not only for the saved values but to graphically visualize the progress
of programs.
Possibility to force individually set point values in the course of a program or
on the contrary forbid such modifications.

A FEW Example OF Applications
The SCHEDULER will allow you not only to implement optimized and cost effective
solutions but also, in certain cases, to avoid installing electric clocks (to be
set individually) or a sophisticate programming in a PLC.
Power management
Anticipation of rush periods. Load-shedding
Lighting programs, heating and air conditioning
Entry control, intrusion, openings management (shutter,…)
Process planning
Operators shifts
Industrial furnace
Pumping programs
Sludge treatments for waste water plants
Lifts
Defrost programs of cold rooms
Automatic watering
Tank temperature (for instance for wine growing)
