The DCS is structured to two layers called Level 1 and Level 2. Level 1 composes of local control stations interconnected with real-time severs. Level 2 features a network of operator stations, historical severs, real-time servers and an engineering station. The real-time servers integrate to both Levels 1 and 2.
