HollySys-OCS-Optical Bus Control System

HollySys has launched the ndustrial Optical Bus Control System (OCS) based on the HOLLiAS MACS° platform. This next-generation industrial process contolsystem combines advanced industrial optical bus technoogy with software-defned //0 technology. OCS supports explosion-proof Industrial Intelligent Data Transmission Unit(iDTU) pre-installed in industrial fields, with signal types that can be remotely defined/modifed through software. The system adopts the highly reliable and real-time Industrial Optical Bus (Onet) for signal transmission. This passive optical bus utilizes physical spectral division technology which ensures no protocol conversion or delay making it safe and eliminates traditional ntermediate links such as field junction boxes, marshalling cabinets, and safety barrier addition, its advanced optical bus technology signifcantly reduces the usage amount of traditional copper core cables. Its distributed system structure design converts customized projects of the traditional control system into standardized projects, greatly shortening the engineering design and implementation project cycle. The system does not require a central control cabinet or cross-wiring,reducing cable usage, workload,and potential failures,significantly reducing project construction capital expenditures (CAPEX) and operational expenditures (OPEX). The system installation and applicaton are highly flexible,allowing l/O to be added at any location in the plant without disrupting the arrangement of equipment cabinets. This flexibility provides a simple and user-friendly platform for future project technology adjustments and upgrades, resulting in significant cost reduction for users with regard to future system upgrades and expansions as well as a reduction in the workload and expenses of system maintenance.
