Challenge	The Attiki Odos Motorway, one of the most modern motorways in Europe, needed a system to centralize motorway operations and provide the status of all electromechanical systems. The motorway extends over 60 km, is four lanes wide, and has 32 multi-level interchanges and hundreds of overpasses. The motorway uses the most modern equipment for incident detection and emergency response. The challenge was to enhance the ability of motorway operators to easily identify and handle emergency situations and overcome malfunctions of equipment in order to provide better quality of services.

Solution	ICONICS’ GENESIS32 software system was installed at Attiki Odos to centralize motorway operations and provide the status of all electromechanical systems. The SCADA system enhances the ability of motorway operators to easily identify and handle emergency situations and overcome malfunctions of equipment in order to provide better quality of services. With over 25,000 I/O points, the redundant GENESIS32 servers are interfacing in real time with Opto22 LCM4 redundant controllers and LCSX-Plus controllers over an Ethernet network. The system response time is less than two seconds. GenBroker is used to enhance communication of operator workstations with servers. Algosystems, using ICONICS OPC ToolWorX™, developed a multithreaded OPC server with redundancy features to interface with Opto22 controllers. Read More Log in to view content
