Thin Client Streamlines Usability

May 6, 2009
The latest release of IndustrialIT cpmPlus Smart Client, a thin client for System 800xA, includes enhancements for expanded visibility of alarms and events, improved navigation and streamlined access to all connected plant 800xA systems. 
The software provides secure, view-only, browser-based access to multiple plant systems from any network connection, so customers can access and share the information they need. Smart Client helps process-industry users securely access their automation systems via an Internet browser for real-time visibility into the process. It requires no programming to configure displays. Unlike other thin clients that require separate data definitions, this version eliminates duplicate engineering effort by using the existing data definitions in System 800xA, says the vendor, saving time and money. It harnesses the power of System 800xA’s single point change management and engineering to provide the data integrity and trusted information needed to accurately assess production status and potential situations from where it resides in the system.ABBwww.abb.com/cpm203.750.2200
