Port Equipment Monitoring

Bài toán

Cranes, reefer points and shore power are controlled by PLCs from several suppliers, so the terminal cannot compare equipment availability or energy use across the quay.

Tổng quan giải pháp

MILESGO gateways collect data from crane and handling equipment PLCs, reefer container controllers (via the terminal monitoring interface), electricity meters, PLCs over S7 / EtherNet/IP / Modbus TCP / PROFINET, and deliver it to SCADA, the energy management system, a historian / database (MySQL, SQL Server, InfluxDB) as OPC UA / MQTT. Field equipment keeps its own protocol and control logic; integration is done by configuration and point mapping, not custom code.

Typical scope

crane and handling equipment PLCs
reefer container controllers (via the terminal monitoring interface)
electricity meters
PLCs

Protocol path

S7 / EtherNet/IP / Modbus TCP / PROFINET → OPC UA / MQTT

Implementation checklist for the project manager

Do not modify validated PLC programs; read existing data areas or add gateway-side mapping instead.
Where equipment only offers a vendor API or cloud, confirm access rights, data rate and costs with the vendor before design.
Keep OT networks segregated and use VPN for remote access instead of opening ports to the internet.
Agree KPI definitions (for example OEE components or kWh per unit) with operations before building dashboards.
Outdoor sites need a weatherproof, ventilated enclosure with surge protection; the gateways are panel-mount devices (working range -20 °C to +70 °C).
Roll out in phases: pilot one site or area, confirm data quality, then replicate.

Project deliverables

Signed point table and protocol mapping
Gateway configuration files and backups
IP address plan and network drawing
FAT and SAT test records
As-built documentation and operator training

Kiến trúc hệ thống

Field layer: crane and handling equipment PLCs, reefer container controllers (via the terminal monitoring interface), electricity meters, PLCs, connected over S7 / EtherNet/IP / Modbus TCP / PROFINET. Edge and integration layer: MILESGO protocol gateways and edge controllers, mounted on DIN rail in existing panels, polling each device, time-stamping values and buffering them locally. Upper layer: SCADA, the energy management system, a historian / database (MySQL, SQL Server, InfluxDB), which receives the data as OPC UA / MQTT. Remote access for maintenance runs over VPN rather than open internet ports.

Các bước triển khai

1
Site survey and point list
Inventory devices, protocols, register maps, panel space, power and network paths.
2
Design and point table sign-off
Map every point to the target protocol and system; agree it with the client and the upper-system contractor.
3
Configuration and FAT
Build the gateway configuration off site, simulate it and test against the signed point table.
4
Installation and wiring
Mount gateways on DIN rail, wire RS-485 / I/O / Ethernet, apply the IP plan.
5
SAT and alarm tests
Verify values against local readings, test every alarm and command end to end.
6
Handover and support
Hand over configuration backups, point table and as-built documents; train operators.
