For fisherman of all sizes and ages, finally, a description of standard tech ...get this shorties - eat your hearts out, a whole division dedicated at RWE with subdivisions for the Puffin - routin toutins; aka the chummer who don't see the "D"s for the "T"s: The POTASH Folk only come out at Halloween;

Chuck, you for for one "FLEX" of a company- a real "V" for Victory Company!!! ! You are a winner CHAMP! You understand the good with the not so and are not on auto matdic pilot. Chuca, Paleochucautomation-NEWTECCHisms, are true. I gut the fish and scale them, behold...the next post will be THE SCALE! The Hydro Geo Scale, Blue him away and nary a naYsaY! Y's are as good as "X"s when it comes down to it as comparred to the Red On Face That I am a causing the shorts.
The Rockwell Automation Solution

On-board PLC-5/30 processor uses internal PID
capabilities to monitor and control mining machines,
allowing them to follow vertical changes in potash
content of formations.
Allen-Bradley vision system with linescan camera
tracks a laser beam to maintain mining machine
alignment.
PLC-5/60 processor functions as data concentrator for
subsurface SCADA network and supplies data to
surface control center.
Distributed network of PLC-5 controllers, with a
Honeywell DCS system, monitor and manage mill and
potash processing operations on the surface.
DEC MicroVAX computers and twin PLC-5 controllers
provide system supervision.
Communications among processors and supervisory
computers provided by complex network of remote I/O,
Data Highway Plus LAN, fiber optics, broadband RF
modems, and microwave links.

The Benefits

Single, coordinated control system simplifies operation
and maintenance of mine and processing operations.
Operators have access to nearly every aspect of mine
and mill operation, reducing reaction time to solve
problems and implement continuous improvements.
Automated underground mining operations maximize
ore extraction and recovery.
Scheduled preventive maintenance functions improved.
Unscheduled downtime minimized.
