they changed all the control panels at work over to terminals... everything is run by a computer model instead of gages and consoles of buttons. :o(

One or two PanelMate touchScreen is today enough to drive a big boiler room. The piping and wirering behind the old control like this one are today obsolete but also almost imposible to duplicate.

we use a Siemens Process suite model for all of your functions... it seems to work well, even though it is hacked, cracked, patched, hotwired and generally jerry-rigged into the older systems.

I saw a couple of old boiler room with the big control panel not working because it's been stitched to computers like you say Samurai.

Most of those new systems are also web base . Maintenance guy love them! I've instal some at my job, I’m not a security freak , but a little bit of skills could break many of those. I think a new era of boiler room haking will emerge soon .

I know, some HVAC control units are placed on the DMZ of some small companies so the HVAC contracter can maintain them. For some places Meta sys makes a lot of the products. These are ridiculously easy to hack when they are visible to the internet

For the pulp mill, the brown side/digester is run by an 1983-vintage HMW Rainbow processor and that's tied into a 1970's vintage gage panel for measure load on the two brown stock washers and two decks... stuck right in the bottom of that are two 2004-vintage Honeywell monitors. Moving down the console are two 1985-vintage process controlers for fine tuning the digester and brown stock washers... over on the other side, everything is Windows based running the Siemens software... it's crazy when you get alarms going off and the computers going 'THE DIFFUSER HAS A PROBLEM!"...
Adding to all that fun is the fact that everything is tied into everything else from Recaust on through to the Finishing Room... organized madness.

lol... ours are standalone inside our own intranet.
however, some of the process configuration guys have PC Anywhere which allows them to make adjustments on our process from home.
Hmmmm....
