The management of telemetry configuration is becoming increasingly important as data gathered from field devices and equipment is being used to enrich information within the wider Business community. This dictates that the quality and consistency of the information is key in assisting accurate, strategic decisions.

Merlin is a configuration Management solution which integrates with SCOPE-Xtel and allows configuration changes to be efficiently managed. The changes to the configuration are made offline and applied at a time that aligns with an overall rollout strategy, minimising operational impact and assisting in the overall process control.

Merlin enforces standards to be applied to the configuration through the use of templates. By applying standards, changes to the Business can be reflected easily into the Telemetry Configuration dramatically reducing the configuration effort.

Not all configuration can be standardised. Merlin offers the flexibility to hold configuration outside templates structures whilst maintaining control over the configuration.

Merlin holds additional configuration metadata, thereby enhancing the understanding of the configuration and telemetry data to ensure configuration standards are enforced.

Merlin provides the Business the ability to formally manage changes and audit those changes.

Merlin provides workflow assistance when performing changes through the use of to-do tasks and structured data entry displays, thereby controlling the configuration process. All aspects of the configuration change are logged thus ensuring that all aspects of configuration are fully traceable against the to-do tasks.

Merlin is designed so that it is flexible and extensible thus allowing it to be tailored to meet the needs of the customers specific Business through the use of Customer Specific Rules.
