Admin
Workstations
All Opus systems support both Local and Remote Admin
workstation links. When activated, these links combined with
the unlicensed AGWS6 Advanced Graphic Workstation software,
provide an extremely useful and versatile connection to all
RTU and other Opus systems.
The Admin workstation links provide a non-mimic
time-limited connection to all RTU and Opus sites. Mimic and
map page displays are not available when using the
workstation in this mode, however, all other workstation
facilities and displays are available. This includes graph
plotting of archive and historic data, real-time trace
analysis, all text based displays, all diagnostic displays
such as port and process monitoring, utilities such as file
access and transfer, database reconfiguration etc.
Both Local and Remote Admin workstation connections
provide a totally secure link to an RTU site. These links
assist the system administrator or engineer in performing
general reconfiguration, system monitoring, maintenance and
fault-diagnosis. The remote link can also be used to provide
remote support for the system.
The Local Admin workstation connection can be activated
with a simple mouse click via either a local interface
(display, keyboard and mouse attached to the RTU) or via an
engineer’s laptop computer acting as a Remote Desktop via
a LAN or Wireless connection.
The Remote Admin workstation interface can be permanently
enabled and provides secure remote access to the RTU (or
other Opus systems) via a standard workstation link. The
Admin workstation typically connects to an RTU via a
broadband Internet link; however, all forms of asynchronous
communications link are supported. The Remote Admin
workstation link can also be used locally at the RTU either
by connecting to the RTUs Ethernet LAN or by establishing a
connection via a Wireless link.

Advanced
Graphic Workstations
All Opus systems, including RTUs, can be
upgraded to support practically any size of database and any
number of workstation users. The full-graphic workstation
user options are available to provide support for integrated
HMI displays, remote HMI displays, and local or remote
operator workstations. These user options supplement the
unlicensed Local and Remote Admin time-limited non-mimic
interfaces that are provided free of charge and used for
system administration, configuration and fault diagnosis.

Web Interface
The OpusIMS web Interface provides browser access to the
system via a local or wide area intranet or the global
Internet. This interface allows the system's current
telemetry and archive data to be viewed using standard
browser software running on mobile devices such as laptops,
PDAs, Blackberries, mobile phones, or any office/home PC
that has access to the corporate intranet or global
Internet.
OpusIMS Web Interface
The web interface supports both large screen and small
screen devices. Live data reports can be accessed and
displayed on small screen devices such as Blackberries and
mobile phones. Alternatively, the current exported SQL
database data, which normally resides on the RTUs internal
drives, can be queried and data displayed on larger screen
devices, such as mobile laptops and PCs.
