Abstract

The paper is focused on description of remote control of laboratory models that are used in the process of education at our faculty. The models are connected to programmable logical controller (PLC) and through this equipment the models are controlled. There is explained process of building one of the models. As the first step the students have to connect the model to a PLC. The PLC Saia is used, the product Saia Burgess Company. With that they have to make a program to the model control and they must verify its functionality. The last step is the visualization of the process control in some commercial SCADA/HMI systems. There are also described possibilities of remote control in the paper. It is possible to control the model through serial interface RS232, RS485, Internet or Intranet interface or through GSM mobile net. Examples of all these cases are presented in this contribution.
