HMI development software kit

6 August 2008 Computer/Embedded Technology

Advantech has launched new development software, LogixView, designed around a very user-friendly GUI (graphical user interface) with a unique process of programming using an intuitive Windows-like drag-and-drop interface.

Based on Microsoft .NET technology, developed on Visual Studio 2005, and fully supporting the entire ADAM.NET class library, LogixView supports diverse functionality for working on Advantech modules. It offers a GUI-based human nachine interface (HMI) development software kit for the supervisory control and data acquisition system (SCADA) market.

LogixView provides a straightforward operating interface rather than a traditional and time-consuming DOS-based environment. It is a modern development kit with diverse advantages. First of all, it eliminates the pain of coding standard functionality and reducing work loading for data acquisition. Users can easily learn the software and program customised control devices for such Advantech product lines as ADAM, UNO and HMI. Meanwhile, users can simply drag and drop the components into a Visual Studio.NET project and change the properties of the components to make their programs run as demands. In other words, users with LogixView no longer need to write code line by line for data acquisition, but can simply concentrate on programming logic and event handling.

Moreover, LogixView is not only compatible with all ADAM.NET class libraries for accessing ADAM series products, but also provides advanced functionality for users to customise the GUI. Some of LogixView's functionality includes displaying analog values in different forms (AdamMeter), turning analog values into trend charts (AdamTrend), modifying different images and strings to indicate ON or OFF status (AdamSwitch), displaying an LED-like number which can be an integer, floating number, or time (AdamNumLed), and the AdamIndicator displays the progress or quantity percentage.

LogixView can be deployed on any Windows CE platform. At the same time, it supports various protocols, such as Modbus/RTU, Modbus/TCP, ADAM Protocol, and local I/O modules.
