Generic Serial Interface
The Generic Serial Interface is a user program- mable Master and Slave protocol used to send and receive messages typically with third party serial ASCII devices. This protocol can be used to inter- face with such devices and message boards, card readers and many measurement devices.
Multi-user Security Access
Security is an essential element of any open system, particularly those with Internet access. ControlWave employs a User Name/Password ac- cess system protected by a

The Secure Data Advantage
ControlWave sets a new standard for providing in- telligent control at the point where control is needed. Whether you need control on the plant floor or at a remote site in the “middle of nowhere” ControlWave is the solution for control, communication and secure data to help you make the right operating decisions.
ControlWave was designed to provide the optimum level of data security using a distributed database architecture. All data including time & date stamped alarms, alarm limits, and historical data are stored locally in each industrially rugged ControlWave, thereby distributing your data integrity risk. To further ensure that the data is always current and historically accurate, the historical data is stored in
When historical data is collected from ControlWave, it is converted and appended to .CSV and/or ODBC compliant databases but does not destroy the origi- nal historical data stored in ControlWave, thus pro- viding a flexible and secure historical data system that is clearly recognized as a benefit to virtually every industrial application.
The Bridge Between Systems
Continuing our tradition of introducing innovative new solutions while maintaining compatibility with existing systems, Emerson again provides a migra- tion path for existing customers by bridging the new ControlWave system with Network 3000 systems already in place. The network bridge is enabled by employing the open architecture technologies afforded by TCP/IP and OPC in both networks. TCP/IP allows seamless Ethernet connectivity to both networks as well as the corporate Intranet so both ControlWave and Network 3000 controllers can reside and communicate on the same LAN. Emerson’s Bristol OpenBSI OPC Server facilitates the merging of the two networks for technical, engi- neering and operator data access. The data source, configuration and path are completely transparent to the OPC client.
