Project Management

A project is the fundamental organizational unit in inSCADA. It represents a facility, site, or logical unit. All connections, variables, alarms, scripts, and screens are bound to a project.

Creating a Project

Menu: System → Projects → New Project

Field	Required	Description
Name	Yes	Project name (unique within the space)
Description	No	Description
Latitude / Longitude	No	GIS map coordinates
Active	Yes	Active/inactive status

Project Status

The operational status of each project can be monitored on a per-component basis:

{
  "connectionStatuses": { "153": "Connected" },
  "scriptStatuses": { "160": "Not Scheduled", "159": "Not Scheduled" },
  "dataTransferStatuses": {},
  "reportStatuses": {},
  "alarmGroupStatuses": {}
}

Component	Possible States
Connection	Connected, Disconnected, Error
Script	Running, Not Scheduled, Error
Data Transfer	Running, Not Scheduled
Report	Scheduled, Not Scheduled
Alarm Group	Active, Inactive

Project Structure

Components added to a project after creation:

Project: "Energy Monitoring Demo"
├── Connection: LOCAL-Energy (LOCAL protocol)
│   └── Device: Energy-Device
│       └── Frame: Energy-Frame
│           ├── Variable: ActivePower_kW
│           ├── Variable: Voltage_V
│           ├── Variable: Current_A
│           └── ... (10 variables)
├── Script: Chart_ActiveReactivePower
├── Script: Test_LoggedValues
├── Animation: (SVG screens)
├── Trend: (trend definitions)
└── Report: (report definitions)

Project Map

If coordinates are assigned to projects, they can be visualized on the map in the Project Map screen:

Field	Example
Latitude	37.9
Longitude	32.5

Clicking on a project point on the map displays a popup with real-time status information.

Managing Projects with Scripts

// List all projects
var projects = ins.getProjects();

// Update project location
ins.updateProjectLocation(41.0082, 28.9784);
