Distributed Control System Trainer (VPL-DCST)
DESCRIPTION
The Distributed Control System Trainer (VPL-DCST) is a type of automated system that is distributed to give instructions to different parts of the remote machine from Supervisory machine. VPL-DCST has two/three Remote stations and one Supervisory station. At each Remote station, we monitor analog inputs and outputs and take decision at the Supervisory station.
