Features

Key advantages of FactoryTalk Historian ME include:
  • Easy, automated installation and configuration as well as interactive browser experience.
    As an embedded historian in a ControlLogix chassis connected to the backplane, FactoryTalk Historian ME is easily installed and configured. It communicates at high speeds with the controllers in its backplane, reducing implementation time from hours, days, or months to minutes. It quickly auto-detects ControlLogix controllers and configures all relevant tags to be historized. The web interface provides easy configuration, administration, and reporting.
  • High-speed data collection rates that are ten times (or more) faster than traditional historian collection rates.
  • FactoryTalk Historian ME is not limited by network bandwidth. It leverages backplane communication to increase the speed of data collection and, with down to a 10-millisecond scan rate, the unit provides more granular data than is possible on a traditional, network-connected plant historian.
  • Reliable and robust hardened, embedded appliance with a low total cost of ownership. Only a client computer is needed to install and configure your FactoryTalk Historian ME.
    FactoryTalk Historian ME records data safely and accurately with solid-state data capture. It has no moving parts and requires no operating system or computer maintenance. It is not subject to downtime due to network outage or the need to perform maintenance on any subsequent firmware updates. It can be pre-qualified from an OEM in a Factory Acceptance Test (FAT), thereby significantly reducing overall validation efforts for end users.
  • Scalable data collection from the machine through enterprise.
    FactoryTalk Historian ME is modular. It is rack-ready to standalone, or can easily be rolled up and configured into a plant-wide historian for full-resolution data collection and data transfer. It can capture data from up to five local controllers and five remote controllers.
