Visualiation and programming projects

ISaGRAF releases the ISaVIEW plug-in for ISaGRAF v6

The ISaVIEW plug-in from IsaGRAF, provides ISaGRAF 6 workbench users with a simple yet powerful integrated HMI. The ISaVIEW Pages are mapped to the automation project structure.

ISaVIEW is integrated into the workbench for simultaneous visualization and programming of process control. It provides predefined, fully customizable and ready-to-use set of objects. Animation can easily be modified graphically. Design and on-line modes are also available to eliminate the need to recompile. ISaVIEW also permit users to quickly create groups of basic objects.

ISaGRAF 6 leverages the powerful Microsoft® Visual Studio® Shell and offers an unprecedented environment for OEMs and automation vendors to create differentiated products for their markets. Based on an open plug-in technology designed specifically for industrial automation needs, the ISaGRAF 6 Workbench is a modular and flexible environment that allows users to add or remove components. Every component in the Workbench was developed with and interacts through ISaGRAF’s new Microsoft .NET® Framework-based technology called the Automation Collaborative Platform (ACP). The ISaGRAF ACP provides the ability to add or remove the various plug-ins to meet specific automation product requirements. ISaGRAF 6.0 now has several plug-ins including a Ladder Diagram editor, a Function Block Diagram editor, a Structured Text editor, a Tag Database editor (Dictionary), an integrated HMI plus several other auxiliary plug-ins.

ISaGRAF is to continue to release a new plug-in every other week over the next several months to complement the ISaGRAF 6 offering. The staged release of the different industrial automation components illustrates the modularity and flexibility of this new environment.
