Edge HMI Series: Event Logging & Traceability

Most problems within a plant or asset occur when no one is directly monitoring the system, making intermittent problems difficult to diagnose without having detailed history of previous issues. Automated logging of events like security and system warnings give operators and plant managers a chance to review older data in order to look for previously overlooked issues, or to catch up with any missed notifications. Watch this recorded webinar where you will learn about the Edge HMI event logger, alarm/event control objects and the role they play in recording and displaying event history in addition to methods for achieving traceability within...

Edge HMI Series: Driver Configuration Tools

Understanding the value of communication drivers and how how those drivers exchange data between both the logical and physical layers of industrial network is fundamental to successful system design. In this video, we explore the use and utility of Edge driver configuration tools, cover example architectures, and provide driver configuration examples that will help you to optimize communications throughout your operations....
