iX is a fourth-generation, software-based HMI concept that is designed to fill the gap between proprietary HMI terminals and costly SCADA license solutions.
It consists of a development environment and a runtime environment and
is available in several versions, including a complete Lauer HMI
concept that can run on a panel PC or desktop PC platform as well as a
runtime version for PCs from other suppliers. With the ability to
integrate externally available .Net controls (DLLs), there are
practically no limits in the generation of user-defined objects, says
the vendor. A large number of predefined graphic objects, such as
switches, indicator instruments and technical pictograms, give novice
users rapid access and enable fast results. Additionally, the software
supports Microsoft multifunction bars and frees users from nested
menus. Users have the choice of using protocols from an extensive pool
of drivers or a connection via a third-party OPC server. All data is
stored in compliance with the SQL standard, which facilitates data
administration. The software is fully script programmable in C#. Beijer Electronics Inc.www.beijerelectronics.com847.619.6068
