Remote Diagnostics and Administration Tool

e-diagnostics: Factory-wide diagnostics and remote control
 
RDATRDAT represents a software solution that helps systems experts and administrators to conveniently diagnose and administer the automation systems and applications. The strength of RDAT is the use in a production environment which is characterised by decentralisation and distribution of the automation systems which are relevant to production and which need to be monitored.
 
But RDAT is not simply a diagnostics tool, but rather also responds automatically to a variety of exception situations, thus allowing continuous production flow in highly automated production environments. The monitored systems are checked for their memory requirement, their CPU utilisation and other characteristics and appropriate responses are generated. This approach allows downtimes to be minimized.
 
In addition to plant-internal access to systems and machines, RDAT also allows the manufacturers of the machines and systems controlled remote access. This enables maintenance and remote support from the manufacturer’s location.
 
RDAT comes with the following functions:
  • Plant-wide access to RDAT from standard office PC’s
  • External access using Internet technologies
  • Status monitoring for critical applications
  • Representation of variables and parameters for an application
  • Start/Stop/Restart of monitored applications (manual and automatic)
  • Remote Task Manager function
  • Integrated administration of user rights
  • Messaging function
  • Complete message archive
  • Comprehensive logging function

System structure

RDAT is based on a client-server architecture. Target Adapters (TA, software modules) are available for obtaining the information from the monitored systems and applications, thus ensuring the information flow to the server. Operation, monitoring and evaluation are handled by special RDAD clients.

Your benefits at a glance:
  • Reduction in the manual administration effort through central administration and control of the distributed systems and applications
  • Increased uptime due to automatic responses
  • Monitoring of various applications without having to modify the monitored application
  • Long-term investment protection through expandability
  • FAB-wide overview and remote control
  • Minimising of maintenance costs through remote functions for the equipment supplier
