Custom programming application Integrated reporting tools and data exporting capability Integrated historical data archiving and reporting Modern graphical displays with dashboard capabilities Support for industry standard system interfaces
Onesait SCADA can be augmented to fit your specific operational needs through the addition of a large library of applications.
eAlarm
Event notification program for SCADA that provides notification of critical system alarms/events to designated personnel via email and SMS text messages.
Data Historian
Extends the capabilities of SCADA providing a hierarchical data model that enables powerful ad-hoc queries, dashboards, report building and publishing.
PlayBack
Provides the system engineer or dispatcher a “bird’s eye view” of the grid, displaying past events in a time-lapse sequence as they happened.
Short Term Load Forecasting
Utilizes historical load and weather data to forecast system load, helping to support demand response and anticipating the need for feeder reconfiguration.
SwitchPlan
Application allows operators and engineers to intuitively create, save and execute switching orders.
Voltage Reduction
Designed to use LTCs or Voltage Regulators to decrease the total load during a system peak event. End-of-line voltage feedback is supported for closed loop control.
Emergency Load Shed
Provides the capability to pre-define load shed groups and rotational schedules. Performs load shedding through the operation of substation breakers.
Post-Disturbance Review
Captures user defined system data both before and after a system fault, supporting analysis of system conditions related to the event.
“Three iterations later, we are still very satisfied with the quality, the products and customer service delivered to us, so much so that we have opted to entrust Minsait ACS with our DASmap implementation, video wallboard installation and the conversion of our switching sheet process through the SwitchPlan Application.”

SCADA Interfaces
MultiSpeak
The MultiSpeak Initiative is a collaboration of the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA), industry software vendors and utilities. The Initiative has developed and continues to expand the MultiSpeak Specification for Interoperability—defining standardized interfaces among enterprise software applications commonly used by electric utilities.
ICCP
Onesait SCADA supports the ICCP (Inter-Control Center Communications Protocol) / TASE.2 protocol for communication between control center systems. Onesait SCADA provides support for redundancy and multiple ICCP links.
SoftRTU
SoftRTU is an application that enables polling of the Onesait SCADA system as a slave from another master station.
SCADA is part of a larger real-time platform
Onesait SCADA is a foundational real-time platform that can easily be expanded through the addition of the following advanced applications.
Onesait OMS
High-performance real-time solution built on a platform that enables utilities to effectively handle the most severe storm situations.
Onesait ADMS
Combines real-time monitoring and control, advanced distribution applications, and outage management.
Onesait EMS
Combines best-of-breed technologies using a powerful suite of field proven applications.
