Control schemes today include a multiplicity of local and remote interrelated signals, sophisticated automatic and manual control algorithms, multi-site communications, and flexible/intuitive operator interface.

The INTEGRATED CONTROL STATION's unique structure facilitates the design, installation, and operation of complex customized Monitoring and Control systems.

The concept encompasses fiscal, engineering, installation, and operational viewpoints in solutions to Control and Monitoring requisites.

There are no hidden hardware or software costs, regardless of desired revisions to the instrumentation and control scheme.

Custom Multi-Color Graphics: The ICS Front Panel graphics can be changed in the field with no cost to you.

Control Algorithms: A "Knowledge Map" provides clear and simple documentation of the control scheme.

Inherent Wiring Diagram: An I/O signal-wiring panel coordinates control cable conductor "alias" with instrumentation signal terminology. This allows your computer to make cost effective changes to control schemes and perform system diagnostics.

Set-points and Calibration: Alterations to Set-points, PID constants, formulas, display scaling in engineering units, etc. are made in the field with front panel controls and digital displays, or remotely via a communications Modem.

Mode Changes: (SCADA, local control, manual- automatic, interlocks, etc.) Modes are programmable and selectable using the front panel. Audio or visual indicators verify your settings.

Data Logging: An optional auxiliary assembly (EDL) allows incrementally increasing 128K RAM to 500K bytes.

Pager and Auto-Dialer Interface: The ICS when used with the General Purpose Modem (GPM) adds auto-dialer functions for remote alarm notification both verbally and to your "beeper". Also remotely check system status from any touch-tone telephone.

Internet Access: Use the Universal WEB Station to connect your system to your Intranet or the Internet.

Remote Diagnostics: The ICS diagnostics software files include programs with "zero sum logic" and relay ladder logic schemes to identify wiring errors and equipment malfunctions during "start-up" and operating conditions.

"Wireless TransCeiver (WTC)"

"Telephone Lines are for the Birds"

As leased dedicated phone lines are becoming more difficult to acquire, AGM customers are switching to wireless data communications using AGM's Data Handlers (DH) and Spread Spectrum Radios (SSR).

"Beep Alert"

The Data Handler, when combined with your existing  pager system, provides a convenient, low cost way to detect and broadcast remote site alarms such as a pump failure or unauthorized intrusion.

"AWT"

Erratic flow signals can result in unnecessary wear and tear on chemical feed equipment.

Use the Data Handler application, "Average with Time", to smooth the signal.
