The HMI is a Microsoft Windows-based system that provides animated images in real time. It is generally a GUI that is used in the automation technology field. A PC would be utilized as the workstation connecting the PLC. We would also attempt to integrate a live broadcast of the fish tank in almost real time utilizing a web cam. The operator can visualize and control the process of the automated fish tank from any workstation to any PC that has the HMI installed. The HMI allows any authorized individual or the operator the ability to monitor or even control the fish tank from their personal computer platforms. This technology offers engineers or operators the opportunity to increase operating efficiency and reduce operating costs by allowing remote monitoring and control processes, in our case, the fish tank.

We will develop a front-end interface system (HMI) to facilitate the remote control processes of the fish tank. This project, if successful, would greatly enhanced the control of any process by reliably demonstrating the monitoring the processes of any manufacturing company world wide. Our team will develop a Human Machine-Interface (HMI) using Wonderware, the software of choice. Our HMI will allows any authorized individual the ability to monitor or even control the fish tank from their personal computer platforms. The HMI is a Microsoft Windowsbased system that provides animated images in real time. It is generally a GUI that is used in the automation technology field. A PC would be utilized as the workstation connecting the PLC. The application interface animates the process on computer displays for operators to facilitate the monitoring of the fish tank processes. This technology offers operators or even engineers the opportunity to increase operating efficiency and reduce operating costs by allowing remote monitoring and control processes, in our case, the fish tank. Using HMI technology, one person can monitor in real time, multiple facilities located in geographically dispersed areas. To increase efficiency of our project, we would attempt to also integrate a live broadcast of the fish tank in almost real time utilizing a web cam.

Some of the concerns of most industries are flexibility and rapid changeover. PLCs are also developed to perform basic sequencing of control panels of relays in most industries. We would like to introduce the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems and HMI Graphical User Interface (GUI) the requirements to provide control and management functionality. We would also like to demonstrate the flexibility and capability of the PLC and HMI Graphical User Interface (GUI) in an interconnection via the web, as well as the PLC’s ability to function in an industrial environment (vibration, heat, dirt, etc.) with the ability to be reprogrammed and used for other tasks. Although the HMI systems are functional, we would design new User Interface that is not too complex and non-intuitive for non-technical users. Some technical and component diagrams would be seen in the system. There would also be more intuitive indicators for parameters or slider bars with warning indicators will help users monitor every component of the system and ensure what the appropriate values for each parameter are. The Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) has many applications, as stated below. This is the main controlling hardware that will be implemented along with the HMI. The application includes combinations of Input and Output system components to create a complete monitoring and control system. With the Input system components, it allows the users or the operators to monitor the water COE 414 - PROJECT PROPOSAL FINAL DRAFT PRINTED ON: MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 2004 PAGE 7 OF 28 New Jersey Institute of Technology DATE: 12-JAN-04 COE 414 - PROJECT PROPOSAL FINAL DRAFT COMPUTER ENGINEERING PROJECT PROPOSAL Subject: AUTOMATED FISH TANK parameters, such as Temperature, pH, water level, and more added features. With the Output system components, it allows the users or the operators to control Pumps, Light, Water Flow, etc. COE 414 - PROJECT PROPOSAL FINAL DRAFT PRINTED ON: MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 2004 PAGE 8 OF 28 New Jersey Institute of Technology DATE: 12-JAN-04 COE 414 - PROJECT PROPOSAL FINAL DRAFT COMPUTER ENGINEERING PROJECT PROPOSAL Subject: AUTOMATED FISH TANK 2.2 Project Analysis 2.2.1 Documenting Requirements 2.2.1.1 Functional Requirements The functional requirements of the Human-Machine Interface are concerned with the various devices representing water level, temperature, pH monitor, and status lights (ie. Lights On/Off, pump On/Off, etc.). These objects make up the system that we are trying to implement. The interface utilizes multiple colors and animation for depicting specific components of each piece of equipment. Also, the interface is developed in a series of arranged row placed one above another type of structured menu for easy accessing to all system components. This makes the system a userfriendly interface. There will also be a window located in the HMI that shows real time video of the whole process.

These Non-functional requirements are used to meet certain requirements to install the Interface, called InTouch® as well as the web cam platform. Our test bed will be based on the following requirements. For the server: 1 PC with a minimum of PII-350 processor and 256 MB of RAM; Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 or later, and Windows Media Player 9. The requirements for the operator’s workstation are all the same for the exception of the operating system MS Windows 2000 (Server 2000 not required). Equipment and software older than specified will not be tested. For any standard Network connections, the system should support the standard TCP/IP protocol. For our purposes, we will prototype our project on the LAN and Internet using 10/100 and TCP/IP.

These specifications therefore describe HOW the system has been designed to obtain the WHAT specified in the Requirement Specification. Interface Requirement - The system has a front-end interface, HMI, which would allow operators to visualize, monitor and control the production of processes (mostly, Industrial Processes). The interface should be user-friendly and allow users to navigate various graphical screens without interference to the process being executed. It also has constant network connectivity. Performance Requirement – In order for the system to function properly the software and hardware configuration should be satisfied according to the requirements. The performance of the system varies on the available system requirements. 1. Hardware Minimum Requirements: • 400 MHz Pentium II • 256 MB of RAM, plus 5 bytes RAM per 5K tags • 2 GB Free Hard Disk Space • LogiTech Web Cam Suggested: • 1.2 GHz Pentium III or greater • 512 MB of RAM COE 414 - PROJECT PROPOSAL FINAL DRAFT PRINTED ON: MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 2004 PAGE 11 OF 28 New Jersey Institute of Technology DATE: 12-JAN-04 COE 414 - PROJECT PROPOSAL FINAL DRAFT COMPUTER ENGINEERING PROJECT PROPOSAL Subject: AUTOMATED FISH TANK 2. Operating Systems: Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional, Server or Advances Server with SP 3, or Microsoft Windows XP with SP 1. COE 414 - PROJECT PROPOSAL FINAL DRAFT PRINTED ON: MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 2004 PAGE 12 OF 28 New Jersey Institute of Technology DATE: 12-JAN-04 COE 414 - PROJECT PROPOSAL FINAL DRAFT COMPUTER ENGINEERING PROJECT PROPOSAL Subject: AUTOMATED FISH TANK 2.4 Design Specification The Design Specification method describes how the systems have been designed in terms of the components that build it. It describes each single component in terms of purpose, specific characteristics and configuration for the correct function. In this project, the InTouch application is used to allow users to create an application in Windows 95/98/2000 (or later) and run the application on Windows 2000. The application is interchangeable and runs on either platform without requiring conversions of either application. It even allows Managers and Supervisors the ability to view a continuous HMI application process in real time. In addition, the interface (InTouch application) is also designed to support OCX controls, ActiveX controls and Object Linking and Embedding (OLE). This method could easily select and add OCX and ActiveX controls to any application windows and toolbar to handle control events. We would use these concepts to integrate our web cam to the HMI. Windows Media Services will be used for the web cam application. We chose this because Windows Media Services (i.e. Windows Media Player) is made by Microsoft and thus better integrated with Windows. The availability of Windows Media Services is more wide spread than any other media services. It is also free which is economical to our project and end-users.
