several levels of data highways .
A large number of local data acquisition, video display and computers
can be found distributed around the plant. They all communicate to
each others through the data highway.
These distributed elements may vary in their responsibilities.
For example, those closest to the process handle high raw data traffic
to the local computers while those farther away from the process deal
only with processed data but for a wider audience.

Readily install new on-line measurements together with local computers for
data acquisition and then use the new data immediately for controlling all
loops of the process.
A sight full engineer can use the flexibility of the framework to implement
his latest controller design ideas on the host computer or on the main
control computer.

Local Display: This device provides analog display stations, and video display
for readout.
Bulk Memory Unit: This unit is used to store and recall process data. Usually
mass storage disks or magnetic tape are used.

element directly.
In the auto mode, the final control element is manipulated
automatically through a low-level controller usually a PID. The set point
for this control loop is entered by the operator.
In the supervisory mode, an advanced digital controller is placed on the
top of the low-level controller. The advanced controller sets the set
point for the low-level controller.
The set point for the advanced controller can be set either by the
operator or a steady state optimization. In the computer mode, the
control system operates in the direct digital mode shown in Figure.
