with the help of PLC you can monitor the alarms, faults and control the generator.SCADA is supervisory control and data aquisation. it means you can monitor the alarms and fault conditions generated by generator via a PLC or Data Aquisation card on a PC. so first you have to gain knowledge about SCADA protocols. much of them are properiatory but these days FieldBus protocol is emerging a forerunner. and by these protocols you will transfer the alarms or commands to and from PLC to your PC through a USB or Parallel Port or Serial port.

U can use WinCC SCADA (Siemens SCADA), connect to PLC by MPI protocol (for cost effect) or Ethernet (for High performance). On SCADA U can build the Screens, where U can use SCADA Objects (like Buttons, Metters.., Motor..) and annimate your real Generator, U collect Data (V,A,Hz...) form PLC and Display them on Screen. U also can embedd Video to Monitoring your Generator. If some thing haapen, U can get Alarm,... U can record all data to Archive to use later, like reports...For advanced, U can build the Recipe, write Script, set Up Batch (If your Generator is Big enough)...
