In the industry, to transform the business models, machine and plant process data are a core fundamental. To customize new data-driven services to singular customer needs, solutions must be as economical as feasible. So, engineering must be simple. TwinCAT Analytics has the one-click dashboard (OCD) to endorse this sort of Engineering 4.0 approach. The time-consuming process of dashboard creation is reduced to a single mouse click.
Through OCD, users can create an HTML5-based Analytics dashboard through the PLC code and then load it into the Analytics Runtime container with a mouse click. After process completion, users get a network address to access the dashboard. This results in a lot of time-saving.
On the basis of TwinCAT 3 HMI, the new functionality offers minimum one HMI control for each TwinCAT Analytics algorithm. You can individually select the controls in the dashboard in an algorithm’s properties with a control preview. You can blend several algorithms with a singular HMI Control.
You can customize automatically generated dashboards by the configuration of individual user settings. You can choose header colours and logos and display geographically distributed machine locations. These controls are in several layouts, themes, and languages, which are switchable.
TwinCAT 3 HMI projects are integrated into Visual Studio also. You can modify the dashboards to the requirements in the graphical editor. Far lesser clicks are needed than the conventional approach to saving considerable time and costs.
