Abstract :
For a practical environmental laboratory, many environmental test chambers are needed, and any central control system designed for them would face the problems listed as follow: 1. Different protocol types. 2. Different connecting interfaces. 3. Different operating method. 4. Large distributed area. To address these problems, a laboratory central control system (LCCS) architecture is proposed in this paper, and the application software is then developed to monitor and control 15 chambers in one of the environmental laboratories in Chengdu City. This application demonstrates great value in increasing the efficiency of the environment test in that laboratory.
