SequenceManager event handling applications

The event handling components are split between the controller and a supporting PC. The sequence program, running in the firmware of the controller, generates events. An external workstation hosts the

SequenceManager

Event Client Service, which subscribes to

SequenceManager

events and writes them to a raw event data file. The

SequenceManager

Event Archiving Service converts the raw events data into readable form, writes the data to an .EVT file, and populates tables in a database for PlantPAx reporting.

Event Console

SequenceManager

Event Client

The

SequenceManager

Event Client receives events from multiple controllers. Each event received is written directly to a raw event file.

SequenceManager

Event Archiving Service

SequenceManager

Event Archiving Service is responsible for reading events from the raw event file. Each event is translated and localized into readable strings, then the data is stored into sequence specific event files (.EVT files). Another option is for data to be stored into the BatchHistoryEx data table in the SQL Server for PlantPAx event data handling.
