Further boosting overall operational efficiency, data continuity and minimizing risk, the software diminishes the need to interrupt or restart the system when alarm and trend changes need to be made, adding the flexibility to roll-out modifications progressively and in a controlled manner.

The surveillance features allow operators to view video directly on SCADA screens, control the camera movement, and link control system events, such as alarms in secured areas, with the surveillance of those areas all while keeping track of control system variables. Additional security enhancements, such as server authentication, have been introduced in order to provide an extra layer of protection to networked control systems.The software can also help companies better meet their growing surveillance and remote monitoring requirements by adding the ability to closely monitor critical processes, high-value equipment and strategic production materials through the integration of live video feed from Pelco cameras. Providing a control system that supports the latest Microsoft operating systems, Vijeo Citect V7.20 software enables users to take advantage of the technology and security improvements these operating systems offer both now and into the future. V7.20 Vijeo Citect software provides a more holistic view of processes through the addition of support for the Microsoft Windows 7 operating system.

Novem‚Äî Schneider Electric announced Vijeo Citect V7.20 SCADA software, the latest version of its integrated industrial automation and control solution, increasing overall performance of control systems through improvements in operating systems technologies and native integration of real-time video to enhance security features.
