【 摘 要 】

In currently designed industrial automation systems, a very important task is fulfilled by appropriate legible and properly designed system visualization. You cannot imagine, for example, a control room in a power station where there are lights, recorders and switches located on the walls. Currently, all power plants or, alternatively designated areas are controlled by automation systems with SCADA systems. These systems allow you to observe variables, change their status, record in real time as well as archiving variables, creating transparent charts, etc. operations [1-4,5,6]. The subject of the article is to present the real object of a high bay warehouse with a SCADA environment as a supervisory control. In the Proficy iFix environment, a visualization was made thanks to which the operator has the possibility to change the process of using the virtual buttons and manually entering setpoints. In addition, the amount of process data obtained is significantly increased, which facilitates and speeds up the operator's decision making. The machine status data is presented in the form of virtual signaling lamps, displayed values of process variables, graphical representation of process variables, and animation of the high bay warehouse execution member reflecting the actual traffic.
