The standard architecture of UNICOS CPC is based in industrial components in both the supervision and control layers. The following picture illustrate this architecture (within CERN infrastructure):
The available components are:
- Supervision
- WinCC OA on linux and/or windows.
- PLCs
- Schneider: Premium, Quantum, M340, M580.
- Siemens: S7-300, S7-400, S7-1500.
- Codesys: Somachine and TwinCat*.
- Local Operator Panels
- Siemens Simatic Touch Panels (for usage both with Schneider and Siemens PLCs).
- Schneider Magelis*.
- Field layer
- Any I/O modules compatible with Siemens and Scheneider PLCs.
- Supported fieldbuses: Profibus, Profinet, Ethernet/IP.
