HERRERA, Jean; BARRIOS, Mauricio  and  PEREZ, Saúl. Desing and implementation of a wireless scada system by means of zigbee and arduino technology. Prospect. [online]. 2014, vol.12, n.2, pp.65-72. ISSN 1692-8261.  https://doi.org/10.15665/rp.v12i2.290.

A SCADA is software which takes readings from sensors and executes some action on a specific process located remotely, due to the danger that might occur by doing in-situ measures. Because of the high cost of SCADA systems, this article shows a step by step procedure for the development of a SCADA system based on Arduino and XBEE. The open hardware platform, Arduino, is used as a replacement of a data acquisition system of National Instruments. A complete compatibility with LabView and a drop in the final price of the SCADA system is achieved using Arduino. An Xbee module is added to the system, in order to make remote measurements and making decision according to these. As a result, a versatile device that is able to work remotely with different kind of sensors is completed. Providing useful clean signals for later processing, allowing to save a record of the measures, by means of a table or a line graph
