Since the day of Distributed Control System (DCS), as modern industrial process control technology and the rapid development of universal, DCS in oil refining, petrochemical, chemical industries and other industries have been most widely applied. These large industrial enterprises the DCS network and the reliability and stability to a very high demand.
However, the DCS system for debugging and diagnostic tests are related to the large number of hardware module, which will produce high hardware and human resources costs, and testing process cumbersome and time-consuming ventures, easy go wrong.
The topics use MFC programming, design and development of Windows-based platform for simulation software, software on a computer simulation of the way through the simulation of distributed control system control station hardware data collection and communication features to the operating station monitoring software design and debugging Diagnostic tests, saving a great deal of hardware and manpower costs, making the operation of the station and the Industrial Ethernet has become easy to test.
