November 4, 2012 - ICONICS added MobileHMI app to its Building Automation and Manufacturing Intelligence HMI/SCADA software. Users can visualize plant operations from Windows 8 devices with fully animated graphics, or respond to alarms and alerts in real time.
They can use natural multi-touch gestures to swipe through operations and zoom or drill down into areas that need attention most. MobileHMI allows users to achieve instant, one-touch access to operational conditions of concern or KPIs of interest. The Search charm allows users to explore and identify all available information on topics of interest. With MobileHMI, users are made immediately aware of critical alerts (notifications) that are delivered to mobile devices and displayed on the Start screen via the MobileHMI live tile.
The app for Windows 8 fully integrates with and communicates with, ICONICS GENESIS64 HMI/SCADA and Building Automation Servers. This integration enables OPC, OPC-UA, BACnet, SNMP, and Modbus TCP/IP compliance, helping ensure that data from any plant, building, equipment or system is virtually immediately viewable on a Windows 8 device. The packaged server/app solution can be plugged on top of almost any plant control network or building automation system network to make it accessible from Windows 8 devices.
Visualizations, including dynamic animated graphics, real-time and historical trends, real-time grids, and much more, can be defined once and then published to run on the MobileHMI app for Windows 8 devices, on Windows 7 or Windows 8 desktops, within any Web browser, as a Microsoft SharePoint Web Part, or on Windows Phones.
