Process mimic diagram design in SCADA systems - Interactive Code Practice

Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to define a basic process mimic element.

SCADA systems

element = {'type': [1], 'id': 'pump1', 'status': 'off'}

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A'pump'

B'sensor'

C'valve'

D'controller'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Choosing 'sensor' or 'valve' which represent different devices.

The element type 'pump' correctly represents a pump in a process mimic diagram.

2fill in blank

medium

Complete the code to set the status of the valve to open.

SCADA systems

valve = {'type': 'valve', 'id': 'valve1', 'status': [1]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A'closed'

B'off'

C'fault'

D'open'

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'closed' or 'off' which mean the valve is not open.

The status 'open' correctly indicates the valve is allowing flow.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the mimic element definition to correctly represent a sensor.

SCADA systems

sensor = {'type': [1], 'id': 'temp1', 'value': 75}

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A'pump'

B'valve'

C'sensor'

D'controller'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'pump' or 'valve' which are not sensors.

The type must be 'sensor' to represent a sensor element correctly.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a mimic element with an ID and status.

SCADA systems

element = {'type': 'controller', 'id': [1], 'status': [2]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A'ctrl1'

B'open'

C'off'

D'valve1'

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using valve ID for controller or wrong status values.

The ID 'ctrl1' is a valid controller ID and status 'off' means it is inactive.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to define a mimic element with a type, ID, and status.

SCADA systems

element = {'type': [1], 'id': [2], 'status': [3]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A'sensor'

B'pump1'

C'on'

D'valve'

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Mixing types and IDs or using incorrect status values.

The element is a valve with ID 'pump1' (example ID) and status 'on' meaning active.
