Displaying historical process variable data in machine HMI applications is now easy , with B&R providing a simple and flexible overview of historical data . Machine operators can continuously monitor and optimize their processes , and the new OnlineChartHDA HMI component allows users to gain a clear and in-depth understanding of their machine's performance , detect equipment malfunctions early , and help minimize maintenance costs.
The new OnlineChartHDA HMI components allow users to gain a clear and in-depth understanding of their machine's performance.
The new OnlineChartHDA HMI component in the mapp View software package will provide users with valuable insights into how their machines are operating. Process data can be continuously recorded by the machine controller and automatically provided to the widget.
This solution is based on the OPC UA standard. Machine data is retrieved from an OPC UA server and displayed in the HMI application via a standardized interface, so the widget can use data from any device that has an OPC UA server. All settings, including sampling time and buffer size, are configured on the server.
The mapp View software package provides automation engineers with all the tools they need to create powerful, intuitive, web- based HMI screens. They can create modern HTML5 applications using ready-made widgets. Users simply drag and drop the OnlineChartHDA widget onto the screen of the desired HMI application. Multi-touch gestures such as swipe and zoom provide an intuitive user experience.
