The Software Designed to Put an End to Alarm Anarchy
Since the introduction of SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition System) in 1960s, the number of alarms per operator has increased drastically. Operators today have to deal with thousands of alarms on a daily basis. In targeting the overall effectiveness of your SCADA alarm system, you can improve operator awareness and efficiency, minimize unplanned shutdown, and improve plant performance and reliability.
That’s why Schneider
Electric has released an updated version of Wonderware®Alarm Adviser software – a web-based tool for discovering
nuisance alarms in your process system through interactive visual analysis of
alarm history.

Alarm Adviser connects to and consolidates alarm data from different SCADA systems such as VijeoCitect®, WonderwareInTouch® and WonderwareSystem Platform. Alarm Adviser also runs in Demo Mode, providing full functionality and the ability to collect up to 2000 records from the SQL system. The new localization capability enables alarm analysis in multiple languages including French, Italian, Spanish, Czech, Dutch, and Simplified Chinese. Alarm Adviser works directly on the SCADA and does not require Historian, which makes it cost effective in long run.
Dashboards make it possible to benchmark and maintain your alarm performance in
line with industry standards. KPI targets can be user defined and used to
compare recent and past performance to track improvement over time. In Analysis mode, Total, Frequent,
Standing and Fleeting views provide interactive charts and supporting
statistical information to aid in the identification of nuisance alarms. The
interactive Timeline bar and powerful
filters give users the ability to easily zoom in on particular areas within
their plant. Additionally, a Consequential
View shows the correlation between alarm events. The Confidence in number
of occurrences of such events gives the user and idea of the correlation
between alarms.
Alarm Adviser is compatible with tablets and thus
enables plant engineers, operators and managers to view alarm metrics anywhere, anytime. One important feature of this
software is that it facilitates compliance with alarm management regulations
and best practices (provides out-of-the-box metrics that comply with EEMUA
191), yet allows to tailor metrics to suit local facility goals.
Wonderware Alarm Adviser
is your organization’s go-to tool to hold the gain on alarm performance. To
