The visualization runs on the APC620 as a SCADA application. Two display units are connected
to the PC either locally or remotely. The control tasks interact with one or more underlying PLC
stations where I/O systems and drives are connected locally or remotely over fieldbus systems.
Additional SCADA stations can be networked via Ethernet TCP/IP.
