ICONICS’ new GENESIS32 V9.13 HMI/SCADA
visualization product includes both a full installation of v9.13 and
the ability to upgrade an earlier v9.x version to v9.13. GENESIS32
V9.13 is now available as an English release as well as an
international release. V9.13 provides licensing support for the new
ICONICS OPC-UA server and also addresses issues that were open in the
V9.12 release.
In addition, GENESIS32 V9.13 now includes the
ScheduleWorX™32 calendar-based scheduling tool that can be used in many
different applications including discrete, process (batch) and building
automation. V9.13 also features additional operating system
compatibility, now integrating with Windows Vista Service Pack 1 and
Windows Vista Service Pack 1 for x64 (runs in 32-bit compatibility
mode). Additional enhancements have been made to GENESIS32’s
AlarmWorX™32, DataWorX™32, TrendWorX™32 and WebHMI™ components.
ICONICS’
GENESIS32 V8.05 and GENESIS32 V8 Service Pack 3 product CD includes
both a full Installation for V8.05 and a Service Pack to upgrade an
existing V8.0x system to v8.05. This version provides new features
including support for SafeNet Hardware Licensing Keys, TrendWorX32
support for SQL Server 2005 databases and additional customer requested
improvements.
“We pay close attention to our installed base,”
said Dave Oravetz, Vice President of Engineering at ICONICS. “The
GENESIS32 V9.13 and V8.05 releases demonstrate ICONICS’ commitment to
our existing customers who utilize prior versions of our software. As
the Windows operating systems and databases evolve, our software
engineers work to ensure that ICONICS products are fully compatible.
While doing so, new important product features are often added so that
all customers can benefit from them as soon as possible. This will
continue while customers make the transition from these 32-bit
solutions to ICONICS’ newer 64-bit-based software, such as GENESIS64™.”
“Manufacturers,
processors and OEMs seek solutions that protect their automation
investments by selecting software whose life cycle can be extended and
optimized to state-of-the-art without having to remove and replace the
entire existing system,” said Craig Resnick, Research Director at ARC
Advisory Group. “This is especially true for HMI software users who
cannot leverage the newest capabilities of their operator interface
hardware, as well as enable connectivity to production management
functions, without installing a completely new system. ICONICS appears
to be addressing this concern with this upgrade and service pack, which
should enable their customers to leverage the benefits of enterprise
interoperability as well as the latest in visualization technology.”
