Oracle by Example brandingConfigure an Oracle IoT Production Monitoring Cloud Service Application

section 0Before You Begin

This 15-minute tutorial shows you how to configure the Oracle Internet of Things (IoT) Production Monitoring Cloud Service application and get started as a factory manager.

This is the first tutorial in Quick Start Tutorials for the Oracle IoT Production Monitoring Cloud Service Application. Read the tutorials sequentially.

Background

Vision Corp., a manufacturer for tablets and smartphones, has implemented the Oracle IoT Production Monitoring Cloud Service application to improve yield, quality, and reliability of the products that are manufactured in the factory. The machines in the factory are the display picker, glue dispenser, and display mounter. The application is configured to detect anomalies, trigger incidents, display the historical and current values of the sensor data, and display the status of the incidents.

In this tutorial, you configure the Oracle IoT Production Monitoring Cloud Service application to track the machines in a factory. You use a simulator application that generates data about the machines.

What Do You Need?

section 1 Create a Factory in the Simulator

In this section, you use the Oracle IoT Production Monitoring simulator application to create factories for your Oracle IoT Production Monitoring Cloud Service application.

  1. Sign in to the Oracle IoT Digital Twin Simulator - Production Monitoring at https://your Oracle IoT Cloud Service instance name/pm-sim.
  2. On the Simulations page, click Create Factory Model Create Factory Model icon.
  3. On the Select an option page, click Tablet Factory.
  4. On the Simulations page, verify that Tablet Factory Model appears, and then click it.
  5. On the Tablet Factory Model page, click New Factory New Factory icon.
  6. On the Create Factory page, click Customize.
  7. Enter the following values, and then click Create.
    • Name: SF Factory
    • Description: San Francisco factory that produces tablets
  8. On the Tablet Factory Model page, click SF Factory, and explore the products, production lines, and machines, that are the various entities in the factory.

  9. Click Start Simulation. For all the machines, the Quantity value changes from zero to a positive number, and the In Use button is highlighted.

section 2Configure a Factory

A factory is an entity at a specific location, that has machines that manufacture products. In the previous section, you created a factory in the simulator application, and in this section, you configure that factory.

  1. Sign in to your instance of the Oracle IoT Production Monitoring Cloud Service application.
  2. Click Menu Menu icon, and then click Configuration.
  3. On the Factory Factory icon tab, verify that you can view SF Factory that you created in the simulator application. In the list, beside SF Factory, click Edit Edit icon.
  4. Click the Map Map icon tab.
  5. On the map, drag the Factory Factory icon icon and drop it on San Francisco.
  6. Click Zoom-In Zoom-In icon, and then place the Factory Factory icon icon accurately on San Francisco.

  7. Right-click the factory_floor_plan.png file, select Save Link As, and save it in a folder.
  8. On the Factory page, click the Floor Plan Floor Plan icon tab.
  9. Open the folder where you saved the image file, drag and drop the factory_floor_plan.png file on drag and drop an image here.
  10. Click Save, and then click Back.

section 3Configure Machines

For this tutorial, the simulator application created the machines in SF Factory. In this section, you view the SF Factory machines, products, and metrics, and then set the machines on the factory floor plan.

  1. On the Configurations page, click the Machine Machine icon tab.
  2. On the Configurations: Machines page, verify that the glue dispensing machines are listed.
  3. Click the Products Products icon tab and view the products that are manufactured by the machines.
  4. Click the Metrics Metrics icon tab and view the metrics that are defined to measure the performance of SF Factory and its machines.
  5. Click Menu Menu icon, and then click Map. Move the map to the San Francisco area to locate SF Factory. If needed, click Zoom-Out Zoom-Out icon.
  6. Click SF Factory SF Factory icon. On the SF Factory page, observe the following information:
    • On the metrics ribbon, the values of the factory and machine metrics
    • On the Floor Plan Floor Plan icon tab, the image of the SF Factory floor plan
    • At the bottom of the floor plan, the Machine Machine icon icons appear together
  7. To view the complete image of the floor plan, if needed, click Zoom-In Zoom-In icon or Zoom-Out Zoom-Out icon.
  8. Select an SF_Factory_Display Picker SF_Factory_Display Picker icon icon, and then drag and drop it on the floor plan. Drag and drop an SF_Factory_Glue Dispenser icon beside the SF_Factory_Display Picker icon. Drag and drop an SF_Factory_Display Mounter icon. Place all the available machine icons on the floor plan.

  9. To close the SF Factory page, click outside the page.

section 4Configure a Production Plan

A production plan contains the targeted production quantities for machines that are allocated to specific routing tasks in a factory. In this section, you explore the production plan of SF factory that was created in the simulator application.

  1. Click Menu Menu icon, and then click Configuration.
  2. Click the Upload Upload icon tab.
  3. To open the production plan that was uploaded by the simulator application, on the Configuration: CSV Data page, in the Production Plan section, click View Data on Server.
  4. On the Server Data: Production Plan page, notice the Expected Quantity values for the tablets to be produced by a factory, machine, production line, and a routing task.
  5. To create a production plan, click Download a sample CSV file, save the file, and then enter your custom values in the file.
  6. To upload your new production plan, click Import, and then select your new production plan CSV file from the folder where you saved it.

section 5Add and Configure Another Factory

In this section, you add another factory in the simulator application, and then configure it in the Oracle IoT Production Monitoring Cloud Service application.

  1. Sign in to the Oracle IoT Production Monitoring Simulator application at https://your Oracle IoT Cloud Service instance name/pm-sim.
  2. To create a factory with the following values, scroll up to the first section of this tutorial, "Create a Factory In the Simulator", and complete the Steps two through nine:
    • Name: SJ Factory
    • Description: San Jose factory that produces tablets
  3. Sign in to your instance of the Oracle IoT Production Monitoring Cloud Service application.
  4. To configure the SJ Factory, scroll up to the second section of this tutorial, "Configure a Factory", and complete the Steps 2 through 10. In the map, ensure that, you drop the SJ Factory SJ Factory icon icon on San Jose..
  5. Click Menu Menu icon, and then click Map. Move the map to the San Jose area, and then locate SJ Factory. If needed, click Zoom-Out Zoom-Out icon.
  6. Click SJ Factory JF Factory icon. On the SJ Factory page, click the Floor Plan Floor Plan icon tab.
  7. Select an SJ_Factory_Display Picker SJ_Factory_Display Picker icon icon, and then drag and drop it on the floor plan. Drag and drop an SJ_Factory_Glue Dispenser icon beside the SJ_Factory_Display Picker icon. Drag and drop an SJ_Factory_Display Mounter icon. Place all the available machine icons on the floor plan.
