Program Plan Intro
Alarm:
In a control system, the alarm refers to the messages which help to point out the fault conditions occurred in the system. An alarm summary will contain a list of time stamped active alarms in the system.
Human Machine Interface (HMI):
- HMI is a hard-wired panel board which helps to operate the control process using a simple touch-screen on the required control icon.
- HMI eliminates the use of hard-wired components like switches, relays, push buttons, and many such.
- During control operations, HMI enables one to watch the operation results by means of graphs.
- HMI communicates with Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and I/O sensors for getting and providing information for users to view.
- It helps in optimizing an industrial process by digitizing and centralizing data for a viewer.

Explain why error detectors and sensors are a drawback in control systems in a few words.
You are tasked to design a system that will monitor and regulate the air flow in a hospital ward. The design should take inputs from all of the following four sensors:
Sensor A has been set to trigger when the windows in the ward are open.
Sensor B has been set to trigger when the relative level of moisture in the air has exceeded 30%.
Sensor C is an anemometer and has been set to trigger when the rate of air flow at the ventilation grills has dropped below 20 m/s.
Sensor D is a thermometer and has been set to trigger when the ambient temperature in the ward has exceeded 20°C.
The system should operate based on the following conditions:
• If the windows in the ward are closed, the system should switch on the air conditioning unit automatically if 1) the temperature is over 20°C and airflow rate is less 20m/s, or 2) temperature is over 20°C and humidity over 30%.
• If the windows in the ward are open and the ambient temperature is over 20°C, the system should generate an alert.
