Reduces Network Support Costs and Response Times by 50%
There are a growing number of examples of a simple Ethernet communication fault shutting down a production line or disrupting a Surveillance application. From improper IP or MAC addresses of a connected device to a cut or burned cable, problems in Industrial Ethernet networks are quite different than those found in a typical office.
Quick identification and a response from a local resource can mean the difference from a momentary disruption to a complete shutdown. The chances of such a problem will grow exponentially as the number and variety of IP based industrial devices, which are placed in these harsh environmental conditions, continues to expand.
IntraVUE reduces cost by:
- Immediate Notification of a communication fault
- Easy Identification of the device and its location
- Empowering Local Resources to respond quickly
- Simplified access to Recover Actions & Procedures
Using existing IT resources or relying on an outsource service provider works well in traditional Ethernet office applications but fails to provide an adequate response to the many devices which are not PCs and are located in remote areas. The issue lies with knowledge on the industrial equipment most likely to be in a fault, it’s physical location, and knowledge of the process to address the problem.
IntraVUE has proven to be an effective solution that can assist equipment technicians by providing a graphical and intuitive structure that simplifies identification as well as providing easy access to all the necessary documentation. Providing a graphical view with trends and event logs reduces the complex aspects to network diagnostics.
IT organizations are quickly realizing that even though they have powerful network diagnostic capability, there is a need to provide an easy to use package for the front line responders. IntraVUE targets the basic problems which can be addressed by the local resources, allowing for a more collaborate environment.
