This Distributed control System Trainer outlines the principle of Distributed control System used in Industrial Environment. The SCADA software & an interfacing package, PLC /Hybrid Controller / Honeywell C 300 DCS Master Controller based data logging & Distributed Control facility gives the overall idea regarding its application. Master Controller acquires Data, Send/Receive commands to remotely placed Controllers over USB / RS 485/ Ethernet/ Modbus/ TCP-IP/HART Network. Thus Master Controller Controls Process Plants forming Distributed Control System.

KEY WORDS:

1. Distributed Control System.
2. PLC / Hybrid Controller/ DCS Controller (True DCS) Based Process Control Techniques.
3. SCADA Based Process Control
4. USB/RS 485/ Ethernet/ Modbus/ TCP-IP/HART Communication
5. Process Plants such Flow-Level-Pressure-Temperaure Control Trainer shall be hooked up with DCS (Distributed Control System Trainer)
6. To demonstrate proper Operation of the DCS, you will need to hook up the Supervisory Station to the below mentioned Process Control Loops
7. The DCS system is supplied complete with Software, Controller, network module & I/O modules that are needed to monitor & control the process plant.
