CENTUM VP Server for Remote Operation and Monitoring Function can be executed from the remote computers
for plant operation and monitoring. By using the terminal service (TS) server of the Windows Server, the Server
for Remote Operation and Monitoring Function allows multiple computers which are connected with one server
simultaneously operating and monitoring in the TS server. If a computer is located away from the instrument room,
as long as the computer is connected to the HIS terminal service server through the network, the operation and
monitoring view on the HIS can be displayed on the remote computer. The remote computer does not need to have
the operation and monitoring applications.
nFUNCTIONAL SPECIFICATIONS
l System Conguration
The Server for Remote Operation and Monitoring Function runs on a in Windows Server OS, allowing it to be a server
for remote-access operation and monitoring. If user names are entered and logged on from a network client computer
connected to the server for remote operation and monitoring, the functions running on the server for remote operation
and monitoring can be used on the client computer.

Figure Example of Conguration of Server for Remote Operation and Monitoring Function
A maximum of eight simultaneous sessions (a session stands for a logic connection to the server for remote operation
and monitoring function started from logon and ended at logo) can be run on one server for remote operation and
monitoring.
The client computer displays screens by the session regardless of the screens displayed on the remote operation and
monitoring server or other clients. It may take a few seconds for the client computer to display the session screens
depending on the network speed. In addition, use of this remote operation and monitoring function is not suitable for
continuous operation because the session between the server and the client computer may be disconnected. Alarm
notications and display updating stop during this period.
When using the Server for Remote Operation and Monitoring Function, please set up one or more standard HIS along
with the client computer on the control network. The standard HIS has better reliability for real-time operations than
the client computer.

lFunctions Available for Remote Operation and Monitoring
The functions running on the server for remote operation and monitoring can be used on the client computer.
Standard engineering functions realize engineering with a remote computer using the TS functions directly. In this
case, the standard engineering function can connect only one session apart from eight sessions for operation and
monitoring.
System views on multiple computers, including the server for remote operation and monitoring, cannot be started
simultaneously. However, if reference builders are called up in reference mode, screens can be displayed on multiple
computers.

When the OPC package is used on the remote
operation and monitoring server, it behaves slightly
dierent when it is used with the standard HIS.
Conrm the operation of the application program
under the server for remote operation and monitoring
environment is required.
The operation check is required in each created
application.
A remote operation environment can be constructed
by installing the Report Package in the client
computer. (*1)
