Advisors

Schneider Electric offers advanced local and remote services that monitor the performance of Distributed Control System (DCS) resources. EcoStruxure™ DCS Advisor servers, located at customer sites, monitor EcoStruxure™ Foxboro DCS to ensure that critical resources are performing within proper bounds. If an unacceptable threshold is reached, an alarm is sent and Schneider Electric engineers are alerted to the changes before an issue develops.Remote connectivity is also designed to ensure that, if there is a problem, global expertise around the world can be harnessed to work with you to make appropriate adjustments to correct the issue and return your system to normal operation quickly and easily.

Connecting a dedicated DCS Advisor server to your plant’s automation system network enables automated monitoring and analysis of configuration and resource utilization. Schneider Electric technical support experts are provided daily and hourly updates and when alarm thresholds are exceeded, these remote engineers analyze the data to determine the root cause and guide corrective activity. This capability facilitates proactive, predictive and reactive diagnostic analysis to help maximize the operational efficiency of then automation system and minimize downtime.
