Using the SCADA Summary
The SCADA Summary provides the current values and qualities of all mapped SCADA measurements in Oracle Utilities Network Management System. Each row of this summary represents one measurement. There may be multiple unique measurements on one SCADA asset. SCADA information includes digital and analog measurements, along with the quality codes and any user comments for each measurement. You can use the summary to view measurement information, manually replace current SCADA values, and inhibit updates.
This section includes the following topics:
Understanding the SCADA Summary Window
The SCADA Summary may be opened to view all SCADA measurements or for measurements related to an asset or pressure zone selected in the Viewer. The SCADA Summary displays the following fields and buttons:
• The Pressure Zone column contains the name of the pressure zone reporting the SCADA measurements.
• The Lift Station column contains the lift station name.
• The Asset column contains the name of the asset reporting the SCADA measurements.
• The Value column contains the last reported measurement value. The value can be status, digital, or analog. For status measurements, the values are displayed as a test pair, such as open/close, on/off, and so on. Analog and digital values are shown as floating point and integer values.
• The Quality column contains the Quality codes for the measurement that indicates the quality of the SCADA measurement (for example, out of scan, inhibited, manual override). Several quality codes can be listed.
• The Point Name column displays the name of the SCADA measurement, as used in the SCADA system.
• The Attribute column contains a description of the measurement type, as configured in the ATTRIBUTES.description column in the Oracle Utilities Network Management System database for the matching attribute.
• Depending on your system's configuration, you may have the ability to enter comments when manually changing SCADA status (for example, Inhibitor Manual Override). See “Adding and Modifying Comments for SCADA Status Changes” for more information.
If this feature is configured, you will see the following columns:
• The Comments column contains the text of a comment entered when changing asset status.
• The User column displays the name of the user who entered/modified comments when changing the asset status.
• The Date column displays the date and time when the comment was entered or modified.
