The field instruments of the process plant are communicated with the remote control room where the supervisor is alarmed to monitor the process parameters regulating at some desired value. The onsite monitoring is limited to only specific supervisors. This paper aims to interface the plant parameters to web server for constant monitoring the state of the process plant at various locations by multiple supervisors. This paper considered the temperature parameter (PV) to regulate at some desired value. The measured signal is logged by the arduino board and then the signal is transferred to the AT mega 328 microcontroller. PID algorithm is applied to regulate the parameters. AT mega 328 is used as a controller and to output the data serially to IEEE 802. 4. 15 wireless communication device. The data received at the personal computer for analysis and monitoring the state of the plant parameters using Graphic user interface (GUI) approach. GUI is implemented with the support of python, internet of things application. The developed model produced more reliable results to consider for implementation in process plants.
