Focus HMI Program Features
- Focus HMI works on all operating systems running Java.
- You can learn easily thanks to its extremely user-friendly interface.
- You can design your screens with Java’s unique color management and transparent objects.
- You can group objects and speed up your work with batch processing.
- With four different container panel objects, you can use the screen much larger than it is.
- You can use Chart, Gauge, Alarm, Recipe objects, and many more special objects.
- The event view saves and reports all of the operator’s movements.
- You can create, print, and read a barcode on the screen.
- With Fulmatic 7 PLCs, you can connect via Ethernet or serial port by typing the variable address directly.
- One HMI can communicate with thousands of PLCs at the same time, including
- Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP/IP, Profinet (Siemens), Hostlink (Omron), and Fins Ethernet (Omron).
- Focus HMI can share all values in the tag table with third-party devices using the Modbus TCP/IP Slave feature. Bidirectional reading and writing are supported.
- With the “Write Only” option in Modbus TCP/IP master communication, you can use it in distributed systems without the requirement of a static IP. It will only be necessary for the SCADA station in the center to have a static IP.
- You will find Alarm and Recipe management far beyond what you are looking for in the Focus HMI program.
- With Schedule, you can plan and run many processes.
- You can write scripts with Java code and run them in specified situations, supporting all Java commands. If you wish, you can create your own forms.
- You can save the history of the tags in SQLite databases. With SQLite queries, you can filter the recorded data according to specified conditions, create reports, save them automatically to disk, and transfer them to USB memory. Millions of historical values can be stored on disk, and you can limit the amount of this data.
- You can download the report files saved with the Webserver feature without approaching the HMI. Or you can dynamically generate reports with internet browsers.
- With the Webserver feature, you can monitor the HMI screen instantly from your mobile phone, tablet, and computer using internet browser programs.
- You can monitor alarms remotely with the Webserver feature.
- You can create and authorize as many users as you want at 256 different levels.
