New features of webSCADA
Fast editing
WebSCADA7 facilitates fast editing by utilizing objects, significantly shortening the expansion time. This approach allows for efficient modifications and additions, streamlining the development process. Users can quickly implement changes and updates, ensuring the system remains adaptive and responsive to new requirements. This object-oriented editing enhances productivity and reduces downtime, benefiting overall system management.
QR code
WebSCADA7 integrates QR code functionality, allowing various types of data—such as images, plans, videos, and training materials—to be attached to any object. This feature enables new and less experienced colleagues to quickly access essential information by simply scanning a QR code, which immediately brings up the relevant object. This immediate access to contextual data facilitates faster learning and smoother operations for the operator, enhancing overall efficiency and knowledge transfer within the team.
On map
WebSCADA7 allows for the display of all types of data on a map, enhancing visualization and accessibility. Users can view real-time data, geographical information, and operational metrics directly on the map interface. This capability improves situational awareness and simplifies data interpretation, making it easier to monitor and manage various elements of the SCADA system. The map-based display facilitates quick decision-making and efficient system navigation.
Redundancy
WebSCADA7 ensures redundancy, eliminating data loss by automatically switching communication to a backup server in the event of a server failure or breakdown. Clients are seamlessly transferred to the backup server, with the database continuously synchronized to maintain data integrity. This robust redundancy feature guarantees uninterrupted operations and reliable data preservation, providing a high level of system resilience and reliability.
No need to reboot
WebSCADA7 virtually eliminates the need for system reboots, even when adding new variables, measurement limits, alarm levels, or images. This feature is crucial for large systems, as it allows ongoing development without shutting down operations. Continuous system uptime ensures uninterrupted monitoring and control, enhancing overall efficiency and reliability. This capability supports seamless updates and modifications, significantly reducing downtime and maintaining operational continuity.
Alerts
WebSCADA7 allows users to modify alerts and set notifications via email, SMS, or push messages multiple times. It features aggregation of unhandled error messages, facilitating fast response to temporary operational states. This customizable alert system ensures that critical issues are promptly addressed, improving operational efficiency and minimizing downtime. The ability to tailor notifications and aggregate errors helps streamline communication and enhances the responsiveness of the system.
Themes
WebSCADA7 offers customizable themes, including dark and light modes, as expected from modern mobile apps, but also available on PC. This flexibility enhances user experience by allowing them to choose the interface that best suits their preferences and working conditions. Whether working in low-light environments or during the day, users can switch themes effortlessly. This feature ensures comfort and reduces eye strain, contributing to a more user-friendly and accessible system.
Connection to other systems
WebSCADA7 offers robust connectivity to other systems via REST API and SQL, facilitating easy data transfer. This integration capability ensures seamless communication and data exchange with various external systems and databases. Users can efficiently access, manage, and analyze data across different platforms, enhancing operational interoperability and data-driven decision-making. This connectivity feature supports a cohesive and integrated SCADA environment, optimizing overall system performance and functionality.
Online update
WebSCADA7 supports online updates, with patches being automatically updated from a central server. This feature ensures that the system remains up-to-date with the latest enhancements and security fixes without requiring manual intervention. It simplifies maintenance and reduces downtime, as updates are deployed seamlessly and efficiently. Centralized patch management guarantees consistent system performance and reliability across all installations.
Centralized license management
WebSCADA7 allows for centralized license management, enabling users to issue licenses from a central server and authenticate online. This streamlined process ensures easy and secure access control across the system. Additionally, users can purchase add-ons for a fee, enhancing the system's functionality as needed. This flexibility supports a scalable and customizable SCADA environment, tailored to evolving operational requirements.
Unlimited trends
WebSCADA7 offers unlimited trend capabilities, eliminating the need for a circular buffer that typically limits data storage to a maximum of one year. This feature ensures continuous and comprehensive data recording without any restrictions on time, providing a complete historical record for detailed analysis. Users can access long-term trends and patterns, enhancing their ability to make informed decisions based on extensive data. This unlimited trend storage significantly improves the system's data management and analytical capabilities.
No client-side installation
WebSCADA7 eliminates the need for client-side installation and setup, providing a seamless and hassle-free user experience. This cloud-based approach allows users to access the system directly through a web browser, ensuring quick and easy deployment. It simplifies maintenance and updates, as everything is managed centrally, reducing the burden on IT resources. This feature enhances accessibility and efficiency, allowing users to focus on operations without worrying about software installation and configuration.
