zdSCADA is a mobile monitoring app for zdSCADA customers in the oil and gas industry, supporting access to and control of electronic devices from an Android device. Its main purpose is to make operational data available away from a desktop or laptop, including information about production levels, equipment performance, and other device conditions.
Mobile access to operational devices
The app allows users to monitor electronic devices used in oil and gas operations directly from a mobile device. This provides access to device information while users are away from a fixed workstation. The source also describes control of these devices through the mobile app, although the supplied information does not specify which controls are available for individual equipment types.
Real-time updates provide current information about device performance and status. Users can use these updates to follow changing operating conditions and identify issues that may require attention. The documented monitoring scope includes production levels and equipment performance, along with readings such as pressure and temperature when those metrics are part of the available device data.
Dashboards for selected metrics
Customizable dashboards let users choose the data and metrics they want to display. This can include pressure levels, temperature, or other relevant information from connected electronic devices. By arranging the information that matters to them, users can create a more focused view of device performance rather than relying on a single fixed presentation.
The app also includes data visualization tools. Graphs, charts, and other visual representations present operational data in a form intended to make larger amounts of information easier to review. These views support examination of current conditions and can be used when interpreting device performance or presenting information to clients and stakeholders.
Alerts and historical information
Users can configure alerts for specified events or conditions, including device malfunctions and abnormal readings. The alert system is intended to notify users when a defined condition occurs, helping them identify information that needs prompt review. The source does not specify the available alert rules or notification channels.
Historical data can be used alongside current readings to examine performance trends and patterns over time. Comparing past information with present conditions may help users identify changes in device behavior and evaluate operational data over a longer period. The app also supports collaborative access, allowing multiple users to access and contribute to the app's data and share operational observations with colleagues or experts.
