A distributed control system (DCS) is a control system for a process or plant, wherein control
elements are distributed throughout the system. This is in contrast to non-distributed systems,
which use a single controller at a central location. A DCS typically uses custom designed
processors as controllers and uses both proprietary interconnections and standard
communications protocol for communication.
Block Diagram of DCS Industries where a DCS might be used
include:
• Petrochemical (oil) and refineries
• Boiler controls and power plant
• Nuclear power plants
• Metallurgical process plants
• Pharmaceutical manufacturing
• Water management systems
• Sugar refining plants
Communication Protocols Used
IEC101 / 104 - IEC 101 / 104 is one of the IEC 60870 set of standards which define systems used for
telecontrol (supervisory control and data acquisition - SCADA) in electrical engineering and power
system automation applications.
OPC - OPC is a widely accepted industrial communication standard Client / Server technology that
enables the exchange of data between multi-vendor devices and control applications without any
proprietary restrictions.
Modbus - Modbus protocol supports serial communication among many (approximately 247)
devices connected to the same network, for example a system that measures temperature and
humidity and communicates the results to a computer. Modbus is often used to connect a
supervisory computer with a remote terminal unit (RTU) in supervisory control and data acquisition
(SCADA) systems.
