Workstations, servers, networks and software equipment is used extensively in automation systems. ABB’s PC, Network and Software Monitoring (PNSM) ensures that the system assets are always available and used to their maximum efficiency.
The PNSM provides a cost-effective solution with a broad range of monitored components. It is also delivered complete with pre-configured libraries of IT Assets representing devices and system processes widely used within industrial businesses today. Additional libraries available in new PNSM are Device Base, Servers, Switches, Uninterrupted Power Supplies and Workstations.
IT Assets can be monitored by using standard PNSM faceplates, the Industrial IT 800xA System Viewer, and the Asset Optimization Asset Reporter and Viewer. Exceeding defined limits and error states are reported as alarms.
Diagnosing the cause of a network failure can be extremely time consuming. Watching for indications of impending problems, via continuous monitoring of the equipment, makes it possible to be proactive and ensure optimum system availability. With the PNSM monitoring software users have access to data detail.
