July 30, 2012 - CAS DataLoggers announces SuperView Mobile Lite, a free Android remote monitoring application for Novus data loggers. This mobile version of the SCADA SuperView Mobile app enables users to remotely supervise their industrial process using a smartphone or tablet with the same simplicity and convenience of the complete SCADA solution for PC. The new app is now available for download at Google Play.
Available for Android v. 2.1 and up, SuperView Mobile Lite is a multiple-supervision application allowing users to remotely read values from devices using Modbus TCP protocol (WiFi, 3G, GPRS, Modbus over Bluetooth, etc). Now runtime performance and information about users’ projects is available at a touch.
Version 2.16 is 6.5M and includes secure user authentication, an Audit Trail (event log). Users can visualize data using screens like List, Table or Trend Charts, and experience system resources through a predefined demo application with random data.
Users can also view locations using a GPS-integrated map, customize parameters like polling interval, update rates for screens etc., and also build screens, configure tags (short, integer, float, etc), alarms and connections. Alarms feature acknowledgment and integration with Android’s notification system. Additional features include a configuration wizard, a math formulae with function library, and an import and export function to interchange applications between devices. Users can also view the statistics and status data of their application in real time and access a database of Novus devices.
Recently updated in early July, the new app already has high user reviews and an average rating of 4.8 out of 5. Automatic updates are available through the Android Market.
