FactoryCast HMI
Active Web servers and configurable Web gateway (Web Designer)
Features
The FactoryCast™ HMI module provides a variety of human machine interface capabilities including e-mail, data logging, mathematical computations, and the ability to store and display user-defined and standard web pages. The module integrates a web server that acts as a real-time PLC data server. This allows information from Quantum™ and Premium™ PLCs to be displayed in the form of standard web pages in HTML format, which can be accessed from any standard Internet browser. No configuration or programming of either the PLC or the PC supporting the browser is required to access these capabilities.
Key Features and Benefits- Dedicated HMI software or driver not required. Functions, such as databases, e-mail, alarms, etc., are set up through simple parameter setting, reducing costs and training time.
- Keeps you informed at all times
- Updates your web HMI interface
- Automatically records data
- Off-line simulation
With FactoryCast HMI, simple web browsers are used for client access into the control system, eliminating software licenses and HMI training on the client side. Because the application runs in a single place, maintenance and modification of the application are also simpler, and data is always accessible.
