The most recent and innovative technologies have been
integrated in
Movicon X2 allowing you to overcome the
restricted and traditional Scada
platforms.
Movicon X
is an innovative and revolutionary third
generation industrial supervision and control
software platfrom (Scada/HMI).
Movicon
has been a reference point for many in the software
technology world for automation for over 14 years
due to its simpliicity-of-use, scalability, power
and openess. Today, the 10th evolution of this
product, Movicon X, has renewed the whole concept of
Supervision by anticipating the future in adopting
all the technologies of tomorrow's world. By
maintaining and extending its scalabity characteristics,
Movicon X has become the software platfrom
standard on today's market for all those operating in
industrial automation, telecontrol and building
automation. It is the only Scada/HMI software of
its kind that can be deployed absolutely anywhere and
everywhere and with any type of
hardware.
-
Movicon X can be deployed with micro operator
terminals and/or mobile devices based on WinCE, or
PCs in big plant system with
client/server redundancy architecture, connected to
any type of PLC and industrial or civil fieldbus.
Movicon X™
is based on innovative concepts. The intense work carried out by the Progea Research and Development team, together with the vast experience in supervision software, has made it possible to reach the highest levels of quality and technology currently available in software for industrial automation.
The aim of providing
only one platform as company standard has been achieved with Movicon X, where ideas and innovations
have merged together to form a solid technological
base.
The Workspace
Movicon X revolutionizes the concepts of industrial supervision, by introducing extremely innovative and modern technologies for automation systems. In addition to
the tools provided for creating powerful display and control
applications in-next-to-no-time, Movicon X has included
all the latest techniques to allow your applications to integrate easily with the entire world, whether by distributing information to business management information systems (MES, ERP), or distributing information to local or remote Clients via web.
Movicon X will make your plant system safely accessible from any part of the world and
with any platform.
When describing Movicon X
we can seriously and finally talk about “Web-enabled automation".

Movicon X drastically reduces development times:
Trying
to reduce time spent in developing is usually one of the main
objectives of any Company using Scada/HMI systems.
Movicon X has been designed to provide the user with all the tools
needed to save time in developing and to safeguard their
work.
-
Auto-Project
configurator: Movicon X has provided a
Wizard, an interactive help utility, to
automatically define settings and create structures.
-
Projects based on XML. Every element, object or resource of the project can be copied or dragged
into other editors (Excel, editors XML and others) to see all the textual properties, edit them and re-paste them in the Movicon project. The projects
can be edited externally as with any other XML file. Projects can also be setup and dynamically distributed in project structures (Parent and child project
relationships).
-
Object Programming:
Just one class of vectorial graphic objects (with SVG technology)
is all you will ever need for your screens, included
with dynamic properties for the various platforms on which the project is to be
run. Powerful, “captivating” object
graphics, complete with lots of properties,
functions and graphical animations.
-
Symbol and Object libraries. Movicon X has an
enormous library of ready-to-use symbols and Templates which can be
cusomized or added to. The Power Template technology allows the effective re-use of symbols,
permitting functions such as the “heredity” or
auto-creation of the symbiol's associated Tags, Alarms and Data Loggers
within the project.
-
Automatic Tag importing.
No need to reset variables in both the supervisor or
PLC as this is now done by the importer
function. Importing and connecting to the PLC
is automatic for Simatic S7®, Rockwell®, Mitsubishi®,
just to mention a few.
-
Just one single development environment.
Movicon X is totally designed to satisfy all
designer engineer needs by providing a one
only software for both HMI projects on WinCE or PocketPC terminals, as well as for complex Scada systems and for distributed architecture and web-based remote
and telecontrol systems.
-
Direct connectivity. By means of efficient drivers, Movicon X guarantees perfect connectivity with all the most important automation system manufacturers (Siemens, Rockwell, Schneider, Mitsubishi, Omron, Saia, etc.)
-
Powerful Debug functions. As any design engineer knows only too
well that it is essential to have the
right tools in order to analyse their
applications thoroughly. Movicon X is completely
capable of meeting these needs by being
integrated with powerful project documentation and on-line debug functions to carry out analysis, simulation and tests.

Features
-
Simplicity.
Movicon X is a lot easier and more
userfriendly than any other product of its
kind, due to its very innovative workspace and integrated
auto-configuration and tag imporing tools.
Movicon X not only makes designing pleasurable
in obtaining great visual impact out of your
application, it also saves you a great deal of
time in developing.
-
Scalability.
Movicon X is unique because it offers
just one software platform, from Windows CE to Windows
XP. May it be for micro-applictions on HMI
terminals or/and for medium-large applications
for process plants, Movicon X is the only
software you will ever need in your
company.
-
Openness.
Movicon X is entirely based on XML. The projects are simple XML files, and therefore
can be opened and edited with other editors. This platform has always been open for integration and customization with the world of Windows applications.
Projects can be grouped into structures and distributed.
-
Security.
Movicon X guarantees maximum data safety. The projects, although based on XML, can be
crypted with 128 bit algorithms. Movicon X is FDA CFR21 Part 11
ready making it much easier for you to create applications
with FDA validation. The renewed User Password
management guarantees safe access by level and/or area.
-
Standards.
Movicon X is entirely based on standard technology to safeguard your investment. The XML, ODBC, OPC, VBA, SOAP, Web Services, TCP-IP, UDP, http, SQL technologies
have been integrated in the platform to guarantee
you easy access and data transparency.
-
Performances.
Movicon X has increased its kernel's absolute performance
to 2.5 times more than its already hi-performing
earlier version. This has been made
possible thanks to the renewed concept
of thread pooling and new graphics engine based
on SVG (Scalable Vectorial Graphics). The
new VBA logic engine has also doubled its
performance speed.
-
Connectivity.
Movicon X introduces a new generation of communication drivers. The new drivers include functions such as the automatic
Tag importing, remote connectivity via modem, the multi-station concept for
point-to-point protocols, the bridging concept for remote service on PLC, immediate
cable testing. The drivers guarantee complete configurability and the possibility of communicating on event in custom mode
by using VBA logics as well. In addition to the free
driver library included, Movicon X also provides complete connectivity via OPC,
in preview of new OPC XML DA technology,
as well as maintaining and consolidating the OPC DA Server and Client communications.
-
Efficient Networking.
Movicon X has completely renewed its integrated networking management. The sophisticated technology adopted, without
compromises, increases efficiency and performances due to the use of emerging and multiplatform technologies such as SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) and SOA (Service Oriented Application).
In addition to TCP, tt also supports protocols
such as UDP and HTTP. The networking automatically supports remote connections via RAS. Movicon X also
included the Web Services technology so
that information distribution can finally support public networks (Internet)
guaranteeing safety with the adopted “firewall-friendly” technology.
-
Web-enabled Architecture.
Movicon X has renewed the Web Client
technology by incorporating the JAVA technology that integrates perfectly with XML, SVG, Web
Services. This new architecture allows server access by means of
using internet browsers on any platform (Windows, Linux, Palm and Javaphones mobile phones
enabled with J2ME). Multiusers, bidirectionality, performance and security are
all guaranteed.
