SubSTATION Explorer
Unified Substation Visualization and Control
Revolutionary substation HMI solution for safe, secure and reliable local operation
Transform Your Substation Operations
SubSTATION Explorer 2 is SUBNET's new and revolutionary substation HMI solution for unifying the visualization and control of all your critical substation information. In typical IED-based substations, critical information is scattered among dozens of different IED faceplates with obscure menu-driven displays. With SubSTATION Explorer 2, utilities implement a standardized solution that enables the safe, secure and reliable local operation of any and all of your IED-based substations.
Key Benefits
Quick and Simple Integration
Integration is quick and simple so projects stay within time lines and on budget.
Configurable, Not Programmable
SubSTATION Explorer is configurable – not programmable – which means you get a full-featured HMI without the additional associated costs of extensive training, development and code maintenance to achieve advanced intuitive HMI displays in a matter of hours, not weeks.
Built-in Digital Alarm Annunciator
Built in digital alarm annunciator outperforms traditional hardwired alarm solutions. SubSTATION Explorer includes a digital alarm annunciator facilitating the timely resolution of substation alarms before they become critical and costly. Furthermore implementing a digital annunciator is a fraction of hardwired alternatives.
Built-in Security
Built-in security leverages existing corporate policies to reduce maintenance overhead. SubSTATION Explorer offers multi-level security to ensure substation data remains safe and secure. Existing corporate network IT infrastructure policies can be leveraged to control SubSTATION Explorer access.
Core Features
Advanced Display Engine
- Powerful "Visio-like" engine allowing for fully customizable displays
- Real-time variables and equations can be applied to nearly every attribute of an object to create more dynamic and intuitive displays
- User-definable actions allows for customization of SubSTATION Explorer response to varying user interaction
- Wide selection of colors, fonts, line styles, fill patterns, shadow effects and many other attributes allow for specific customization to user preferences
Configuration and Customization
- Integrated, secure scripting engine provides a tool set for advance HMI customization
- Stencils allow for rapid, repeatable, and reliable configuration development
- Quick-drop settings associated with stencils provide hassle free auto-mapping of real-time variables to objects to reduce errors and reduce configuration time
- Stencils can be created or customized by users to create a customer-specific standard look-and-feel within their HMI deployments
- Stencil libraries can be easily distributed throughout your organization for a consistent HMI look-and-feel across your corporation without duplication of effort
- Import existing objects from Microsoft Visio for reuse within SubSTATION Explorer to further reduce configuration time and costs
Security and Access Control
- Leverage Single Sign On and Multi-factor Authentication to ensure proper access
- SubSTATION Explorer provides file-based security controls, therefore security follows the configuration regardless of PC
- Varying security levels allows for assigning specific roles to individual or groups such as Full Control, Modify, View & Execute, and View
- SubSTATION Explorer continually monitors and records who has worked on the configuration (and when) in a permanent auditable log
Advanced Tools
- Comparison feature provides a detailed, itemized listing of all configuration modification differences between two files
- Aliasing provides the ability for a single graphical display to represent multiple data sets, allowing for significant reduction in both configuration and maintenance of your HMI
- Integrated alarming logic and visualization provides a low cost, high performance digital alarm annunciator
- Pan and Zoom provides the flexibility to resizing displays to accommodate content and optimize monitor characteristics
- Profiler provides a clear and concise display of SubSTATION Explorer resource usage to allow for further optimization of configurations
- Cut, Copy, Paste, Undo and Redo functionality expedite and simplify configuration efforts
- Reliability Monitor provides a simple method to view SubSTATION Explorer stability, with integrated reporting to assist with continual product improvement
