What Is HMI software?

Human machine interface software allows industrial end users to monitor and control equipment using a computer. This can include operating pumps and motors or displaying temperatures and fluid levels on a screen.

What is SCADA Software?

Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems are comprised of HMI software (such as VTScada) that uses a network to communicate with distributed remote telemetry units (RTUs) and programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to control remote hardware and retrieve logged process information. For example, municipal utilities can use radios to centrally monitor and control water distribution and wastewater collection sites spread over a wide geographical area or an Ethernet network to oversee multiple treatment plants.

All standard and optional components are integrated into the product and can be unlocked by simply updating an installation key. Easily expand your system from a simple OEM machine interface or standalone workstations to a large, distributed client/server system.

History

In 1988, Trihedral released ‘WEB’, a DOS-based HMI product that can still be found operating in the field today. In 1995, the name became Visual Tag System (VTS) to reflect the graphic capabilities made possible by the Windows Operating System. In 2001, Trihedral developed VTScada, a set of dedicated telemetry features included with every VTScada license. In version 11, the product simply became known as VTScada and sported the new logo found at the top of this page.
