Enterprise database systems save time and money

The efficiency, convenience and interactivity of enterprise databases make them the best way for plant systems to store and share the overwhelming amounts of information needed and generated on a day-to-day basis. Recipes from PLCs can be programmed and changed from the database, which is much easier than reprogramming a PLC directly. Settings can also be recorded in the database and sent back to the PLC for future operations, eliminating unnecessary reprogramming altogether.

DataWorx Professional enables proactive communication between the plant floor and the enterprise database.

DataWorx Professional allows industrial devices to communicate directly with IT enterprise database systems. DataWorx Professional translates the PLC’s original data into SQL statements, so the PLC and database can communicate in the same language, eliminating the need for expensive third-party packages and unnecessary programming. The PLC has complete control over its information’s storage and retrieval. Industrial devices are able to conduct their own database operations, so records are always accurate and up-to-date.

DataWorx Professional enables industrial devices to conduct the following database operations:

• Insert: Allows industrial device to add new records to a database

• Delete: Enables the elimination of records from a database

• Update: The device is able to change existing database records

• Select: Enables the industrial device to retrieve records that fit a specified criteria
