Experion® Remote Gateway

Overview
Experion® Remote Gateway (ERG) provides secure access to read-only Stations from your business network or anywhere off site via a Virtual Private Network. Experion Remote Gateway’s read-only Station client provides the same user interface as a single window Station, with live updating custom and system displays including alarm and event information.

What is It?
Experion Remote Gateway is an extension to your local control system enabling you to securely and conveniently monitor your process and provide operational support from any location.

How Does It Work?
Use any standard web browser to access Experion Remote Gateway’s Read-Only Station Clients. No Experion software is required on client machines. The read-only Station clients provide the same user experience as a single window Station with view only access to system and custom displays.
An Experion Remote Gateway deployment consists of thin client machines on the business network, an Experion ERG Connection Broker on the L3.5/DMZ network and an Experion ERG server on the L3 network.  The Experion Remote Gateway Server uses Honeywell’s Distributed System Architecture to provide a backward compatible, read-only communications channel with Experion Systems on the Process Control Network.

What Problems Does it Solve?
Experion Remote Gateway provides operational support personnel with secure read-only access control system information from anywhere outside the control room:

• Monitor your process for improvement opportunities and inefficiencies to help ensure optimal production.
• Use with ruggedized tablets outside the control room to put live Experion data into the hands of field personnel and reduce time spent in repeated radio calls with control room operators. 
• Process experts can quickly access the control system information they need to troubleshoot issues and provide operational support from wherever they are.
• Minimize cost of ownership by using your existing Experion displays with no re-engineering required.
