The main part of the project was a SCADA upgrade for both. A key feature of the project was setting up a system whereby the two entities can share data. This project was done for two separate organizations that work together on several activities. FTView exports a data set with thousands of zero's.Two Customers See Big Improvements, Can Share Data csv file, Ignition only exports valid data points. Ignition does something wonderful, that say, FactoryTrash View doesn't. Use a Level 3 switch to allow access to selected enterprise clients, trust the machine domain and the enterprise domain, but be careful of permissions. Give the machine network its own domain controller. Keep it 100% isolated from the IT department, and the internet.

Here's the deal.if you want a REAL historian, no matter the platform, install a machine network. Proper Network Design is important for Historian integrity. But if the network goes down, neither can Ignition. Your second point, losing data completely, is because the built-in historians of View, WonderWare, et al, don't have store and forward built in.

Slow things, like heaters, I set to 1000 to 10000 ms update times for historical trending, but i still have them set to 500 to 1000ms for direct (display active) viewing. Ignition allows me to use different 'scan classes' for history tags, but other scan classes for active display tags all limited by the ultimate max polling rate for the OPC-UA device.Īs a rule, I set my OPC-UA devices for 250ms max update rate. If you want to trend every single value change, or discrete change, on every tag, even a world class historian, like OSI PI cannot do that. Your first question is to decide what a 'historian' should do. Even then, Ignition tries to internally buffer everything, and with its store and forward, will stuff the list data back into SQL. The only time I have ever lost data, was when the plant domain went down for an extended period of time. I trend everything on Ignition, and use Sepasoft's SQC module for critical process monitoring.Ĭurrently about 125,000 tags, about 8,000 historical ones, and 180 for Sepasoft SQC.

Even machines not using Ignition for the HMI's. I have been running Ignition for at least three years now. But, if you might need to interact with historical data on a daily basis, monitoring multiple types of trends, creating new ones, in-depth analytics Ignition falls short.Ĭanary and Seeq modules exist for a reason. You'll be happy with Ignition as-is with basic historical data and trends.

Toss in Perspective and you are left with piece-meal solutions that IMHO don't qualify as a real "historian viewer".ĭepending on your actual needs, maybe you don't need anything fancy at all. Old school, making "Click to Graph" work but that seems to have fallen off the wagon.Someone built a solution, with a bunch of scripting that may or may not be easy to use or support (My current experience). Shoe-horning in something you find from Ignition Exchange that works "but not great".Building your own trend views/ad-hoc viewer from scratch to meet your needs.Nothing like downloading and running a Wonderware Historian Client. There isn't an "out of the box" polished solution for viewing trends, saving them, exporting the data etc. Storing data is one thing, easily extracting it out and making it useful is another thing. The biggest draw back is the lack of a powerful viewer. I'm a critic of Ignition's "historian", and I'm an Ignition fanboy.
