The type of system being created (local or multi-level distributed) depends on the level of complexity of the automation object and the needs of the Customer, and is mainly determined by the number and range of technological equipment, the infrastructure of the facility, the required level of control and management.
Local control systems are used to automate small, functionally complete technological objects.
APCS of complex objects are created according to a multilevel hierarchical principle. At the same time, several control stations are installed at technological facilities, which are combined into a local information and computer network.
