3.0 Data Acquisition
 
3.1 Overview 
The turbidity data acquisition system is designed to sequentially collect data from 
a series of the HF Scientific turbidimeters. The data acquisition system can be 
configured to monitor up to 32 turbidimeters on the RS485/232 network. 
 
3.2 Summary Panel 
Fig 3-1
The summary panel is the main user interface to the SCADA system. From this 
panel the user can configure, monitor and access the report generation utility. The 
summary panel (refer to Fig. 3-1) displays up to 32 turbidimeters. The display for 
each turbidimeter shows the following information: 
 
The user defined name of the device (e.g. Filter 1, East Filter 2). 
 
The turbidity value in the format 0.000 NTU. The value is shown as 0.000 NTU 
in the event of a COMM failure and blank if the device is not active.
