Loss of situational awareness in any process control operation can have catastrophical consequences for a business. Unfortunatly there are enough examples in history to prove this, - from black-outs in New-York and Italy, from Three Mile Island to Chernobyl. The loss of situational awareness was not always the trigger of the catastrophy but it became clear that in certain abnormal situations the lack of situational awareness and correct information was slowing recovery down.

Improved Situational Awareness
Barco will show visualization tools to improve the situational awareness in all kind of situations, keeping you comfortable with what you see making the saying, what you see is what you get not a hollow slogan.

Digital Mapboards
With iUtilities, Barco offers a total visualization solution that provides dynamic content on one large canvas, showing process overviews (grids, pipes, valves), live video (CCTV camera's, vision cameras, weather channels), expertise systems, simulations and other critical operational or strategical information. The display is capable of handling thousands of data pixels in a real-time manner, without compromising your processor performance. System operators benefit from the overview system, as it gives the status of the process in one clear and real-time view without having to browse through different applications, windows or pages. In addition, the power of digital process maps brings full situational awareness with the blink of the eye. With all the redundancies included in the system, a real mosaic mimic wall replacers will be shown.

iUtilities provides the ability to fully integrate visualization sub-systems into process monitor systems to allow for flexible display content solutions. Other benefits of this system are: enhanced performance and quality, cost and space savings, and external management of the visualization sub-system by higher level SCADA or DCS systems via Application Programming Interfaces (APIs).
Physically, iUtilities consists of a range of high-quality displays, Barco's display controller series and wall management software. Barco Control Room solutions are designed and developed for 24/7 reliability and a low cost of ownership, making it a real investment product for mission-critical applications.

Multiple source handling
The iUtilities solutions are powered by Barco's Transform family network controllers (EOS and Argus). They allow for virtually unlimited integration of data and video sources into one Process-Overview-Picture overview. As opposed to software-based visualization solutions, the hardware processing provides the user with increased capacity, better performance and quality.
Come by booth #2859 to view the following Barco iUtilities solutions:

iUtilities software brings dynamic content to the mimic wall, combining data from different sources like SCADA, DCS, EMS, in addition to video sources, to enhance the entire visualization solution.
