Extensive system benefits are realized through the key
elements of the Ovation product.
• Network – A standards-compliant, fully redundant, highspeed Ethernet network using commercial hardware,
and copper or fiber cabling. Each originating drop
periodically broadcasts point value and status at the
appropriate frequency.
• Controller – Each fully redundant PC-based controller
interfaces to the I/O subsystem, performs data
acquisition, and executes simple or complex modulating
and sequential control strategies (up to 32,000 process
points per controller).
