SmartSCADA

The WinCC OA feature Smart SCADA provides two packages: the KPI framework (KPI - Key Performance Indicator) and the Analytics package.

The KPI Framework contains the KPI Wizard and the KPI Control functions. It allows to define, configure and calculate key performance indicators - KPIs. A KPI represents an indicator in your system.

The Analytics package contains the Data mining Wizard, the Classification Wizard and the R Control Extension. By using the Analytics package, you can explore your system data by training statistical models.

Smart SCADA displays the state of the system via the key performance indicators and provides help in the statistics analysis of the key performance indicators.

The WinCC OA Online help contains a comprehensive SmartSCADA online help. To install SmartSCADA, see chapter Requirements and Installation.
