DeltaV Opc MatlabIntegration

This document discusses integrating Matlab with DeltaV control systems. Matlab can interface with real-world systems through data files, I/O boards, serial ports, and networks. It can integrate with DeltaV using an OPC client to read and write tags through direct or cached transfers. This allows DeltaV users to benefit from Matlab's computational abilities for applications like advanced control design and testing. Examples demonstrate how to program the Matlab OPC client to access DeltaV tags. The integration enables easy development and prototyping of computationally demanding applications to advance DeltaV capabilities.

Matlab - DeltaV Transfer Features
Direct Read/Write
For transfer of insignificant amount of data (tags)
Speed depends on the actual system load
Maximum speed: scan ~100 msec. For ~10 tags
Cache Read/Write
For transfer of significant amount of data - thousands
of tags
Speed is defined by DeltaV server
Current speed: scan ~ 1 sec.
