6. Integration into an automation environment

Innovative control strategies cannot be isolated islands within an automation environment and, to facilitate their use, must be fully integrated into a modern automation system .

Utilizing the resources that this type of system makes available as standard not only reduces design costs, but also offers significant benefits to the operator, by improving and simplifying operating, maintenance and fault resolution tasks. Operating personnel are able to perform these tasks without additional training. These strategies save time, effort and risk of error.
