🔧 Technology Behind VS SCADA
For engineers and technical specialists — how it works under the hood.
Architecture
VS SCADA is built on proven open-source technologies running on Linux servers. The core engine is Node-RED — a powerful flow-based platform for industrial IoT and automation.
Core Technologies
📡 Communication Protocols
- Modbus TCP/RTU — VFDs, PLCs, power meters, controllers, I/O modules

- MQTT — lightweight protocol for IoT sensors & remote devices
- BACnet — building automation integration
🔌 Supported Devices
- Frequency Converters (ABB, Danfoss, Siemens, Delta)
- PLCs (Siemens, Schneider, Delta, Owen, Mitsubishi)
- Temperature & Process Controllers
- Power Meters & Energy Analyzers
- Analog & Digital I/O Modules
🌐 Web Interface
- HTML5 / WebSocket — real-time updates without page refresh
- Fully responsive — PC, tablet, smartphone
- Custom dashboards for each project

AI Assistant
🧠 AI Chatbot — Integrated Into SCADA
- AI chatbot integrated directly into the SCADA interface
- Diagnoses alarms and suggests solutions in real time
- Opens electrical schematics and equipment manuals on demand
- Helps train new operators — answers questions in plain language
- A feature that traditional SCADA systems simply don't have
Licensing
No per-tag fees. No runtime licenses. No annual subscriptions for the software itself. You pay only for engineering and setup. The system is yours completely. The only limit is the physical performance of the hardware (CPU/RAM) and network bandwidth.
