Base system
The base system collects all process related data, via the NET communication units,
from the process units and stores the data in the process database. The collected
information is then distributed for e.g. HSI-displays, archiving, calculations,
printouts and for further processing and distribution in other systems. In a
corresponding way, control commands are sent from the process database to the
process units. The control commands can come from e.g. an operator through the
HSI, an automatic function or some other system. The process database reflects the
real time picture of the process.
The base system runs the application (See Figure 3.2.-1). The base system
functionality is always the same, no matter how the application is used. The base
system services are configured and accessed by SCIL. For more details on SCIL,
please see Section 3.5.1.
