System Overview


Simple two-part enterprise solution

While the TagsCollector service is handling all the heavy lifting in the background, the ASP.net web portal provides a user-friendly interface to easily access the data through a standard web browser. This novel approach allows anyone familar with website development to quickly construct a fully functional SCADA system and eliminates the repetitive task of entering data multiple times in multiple places... simply enter your tag data one time, construct a website, and publish it on a standard Microsoft IIS web server.

Transforming the way you work

With faster development times, reduced entry errors, and future modifications that are quick and easy. The key to TagsCollector’s usefulness comes from our revolutionary concept that we call transformation plugins. In the simplest terms a transformation is a set of instructions that is used to convert input data to something more useful. As a typical example, a transformation could be created to take a raw analog input signal from a tank level transmitter, scale it to gallons, compare it's current value to an associated setpoint, set the tags color based on it's value, and generate high- and low-level alarms… Then, once the transformation has been created and tested, it can be quickly assigned to an unlimited number of tanks in a fraction of the time normally required.
