The software of choice for this step is “SD Card Formatter” it’s a simple tool available for Mac and Windows. If the format is incorrect, the software will not be read properly. The SD Card we’ve selected for our project must be formatted prior to installing NOOBS onto it. It’s recommended to use the “Offline and network install” file as we’ve personally experienced issues with network interruption while installing the other version. You can download NOOBS from the official Raspberry Pi website here: NOOBS Download. It’s the operating system installer which contains Raspbian, the OS of a Raspberry Pi. NOOBS stands for New Out of the Box Software. Step 1 – Installing NOOBS onto the SD Card Other Industrial Equipment such as an EtherNet switch, 5VDC Micro-USB Power Supply, EtherNet RJ45 cable & an HDMI cable are needed. 16GB should be plenty, but if you plan on installing a local database, it’s recommended to invest in more space.Ĥ. We will need an SD Card to store the Raspberry Pi OS as well as the Ignition Edge Software. Based on the heat dissipated by the Raspberry Pi and the fact that Ignition Edge will typically run at all times, it’s recommended to purchase the heat-sink & fan combo for the board.ģ. That being said, the 1GB Raspberry Pi will be just fine.Ģ. At the time of this tutorial, it’s recommended to purchase the 4GB of RAM Raspberry Pi as Ignition Edge can utilize more or less memory based on the application. The most obvious component is a Raspberry Pi. We will need a few components in order to get Ignition Edge installed. We will go over the hardware as well as software requirements and all the steps necessary to install everything on the Pi. In this tutorial, we will be kicking off a series on Ignition Edge which is an IoT Edge platform for Ignition and can be installed on a Raspberry Pi. On the flip side, Inductive Automation, has an excellent platform called Ignition which provides an unlimited two hour trial that can be reset indefinitely. The hardware and software costs are high thus making these systems difficult to learn outside of a work environment. Although they’re excellent offerings, the barrier to entry for learning purposes is high. In most of our tutorials, we’ve leaned toward Rockwell Automation and their FactoryTalk View ME/SE platform for SCADA & HMI development. Although they’re different in their implementation, the principles remain the same and can be leveraged from one platform to another. Rockwell, Siemens, GE, ABB, Inductive Automation and many other players have an offering in this field. There are many solutions when it comes to SCADA. As control systems, we must have expertise in this area. These technologies have been quickly evolving over the years & have become an integral part of the manufacturing floor. SCADA & HMI applications allow the users to interact with a PLC and analyze the data of a system.
