Translate the following article from English into Russian.
Wind turbine control, SCADA systems
| SCADA systems The SCADA system (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) from DEIF Wind Power Technology offers full remote control and supervision of the entire wind park and the individual wind turbines. The SCADA system can run on a computer in the control room of the wind park or it can run on any internet-connected computer accessing the wind park using TCP/IP. Main features of the SCADA system: - Park overview - Park control - Turbine overview - Turbine control - Log viewer - Report generator | 
The SCADA system for wind
turbines from DEIF Wind Power Tech-nology provides full monitoring and control of the individual wind turbine and the entire wind park.
|
Park overview
The park overview of the SCADA system provides a graphical overview of the wind park indicating the status of each individual turbine. Furthermore, current wind and production data are shown.
Park control
The park overview makes it possible to start/stop the entire wind park, clusters of turbines or individual wind turbines. Furthermore, the park control can be used for setting production limits for the wind park.

| Turbine overview The turbine overview of the SCADA system gives a full overview of all relevant parameters of the wind turbine, for instance temperatures, pitch angle, electrical parameters, rotor speed, yaw system, etc. Log viewer The SCADA system features a flexible browsing of the log data of the wind turbine. All relevant log data are accessible and can be sorted by different parameters. Report generator The report generator of the SCADA system makes it possible to make all relevant reports based on the log data. The reports can be graphically presented to provide the best possible overview. |
