Versatile Data Server (VDS) is the process control PLC/RTU from Yokogawa. This is web-based HMI/data server software that develops the more advanced architecture to the conventional HMI/SCADA functionality. It provides simple and secure operations. Its network versatility gives a broader range of application. VDS supports connection to diverse devices including OPC server/client connections. The simple software architecture and rich of functions addressed to simplify operations in various needs of a more modern application. The device is made with the object-oriented, so the users possible to increase their engineering efficiency. Then with the VDS users can check the site status from anywhere, anytime with a very swift response.
Users are able to build a low-cost high-performance process control system using the FCN and FCJ autonomous controllers featuring loop control and sequence control.
The first-rating security system is built to restrict accesses from unauthorized users from writing data, and running program. The log record function provides a detailed audit trail.
Then the extensive message management functions provided to give easy access to alarm summary display. It will be announced via sound output in different method depending on the users need. Then the messages can be analyzed again in the form of printout result. The message and process management become of the VDS standard feature as are required to manage alarms and messages on the process of operation and process management. Finally users do not need to develop management programs using programming languages like Visual Basic and other.

VDS HMI/data server software offers several features
The VDS’s graphic windows run on VDS Viewer made of Java Application. It is just like a personal computer with no special dedicated software. VDS plays the role as data acquisition and saving tool. The operation and monitoring on the HMI client can be accessed from anywhere via VDS Viewer. As well, for the control aspect, VDS can connect to various I/O devices to integrate the site information. In short, the dedicated software can be used to access VDS running on site and gain the site statuses and perform operations and monitoring anytime, anywhere.Connectivity
VDS can handle various s applications for production and manufacturing processes through the various easy-link integration equipments like FCN and FCJ autonomous controllers, temperature controllers, power monitors and other on an integrated network.Users are able to build a low-cost high-performance process control system using the FCN and FCJ autonomous controllers featuring loop control and sequence control.
Operation
Enhancing the VDS main functionality (VDS Viewer), VDS also comes with numerous functions that make operations become easier. Supporting the operation, VDS offers graphic windows with extensive graphic functions for easy visualizations.The first-rating security system is built to restrict accesses from unauthorized users from writing data, and running program.
