HMI-Master is a software for visualization and control / automation of buildings and equipment.

With this software, all areas of a building can be controlled or automated, lighting, blinds, air conditioning, solar technology, heating control to complex automation solutions. This not only comfort, but also energy savings in all areas since all functions can be automated.

Highlights

• Open architecture and design

Thanks to the integrated graphical page layout editor, you can determine what is shown when and how. Integrate custom graphics and your customized pages optimized for your taste and your application. The preparation is a snap with the integrated graphical design module drag and drop.

•  Platform-Independent Manufacturer

Search your system to your own requirements, and thereby optimize the costs. From the server to the mini PC, whether Windows or Linux, choose the hardware and the software we deliver. Of course you can also use our pre-configured systems without installation and start immediately with the project.

•  Bridging worlds

Different systems such as KNX, CAN or PLC controls are on the master HMI protocol TCP implementation basis. All data from the various bus systems / protocols are available to the HMI-Master system.

• Low Cost

With HMI-Master provides a complete solution, all features are included in the software, there are no limitations for your project.

At different levels - screens can visualizations for buildings and facilities without programming easily collected by drag and drop. It supports all possible screen resolutions, so the surface to touch displays of all sizes to be adjusted. There is also no limit to the data points / operating like other visualizations.

The modular structure between visualization, logic processing and communication are also still a new dimension of cost reduction. As the access to I / O area is usually very costly, it is thanks to the modularity of HMI master the ability to carry out this communication to a subscriber (active) the entire plant. Other HMI Master participants (passive) of the total investment are available only through the standardized and cost-effective TCP / IP Ethernet network with one another. Should a passive participant e.g. switched be a blind acceptance by the active participants HMI Master this and sends the appropriate action on to the connected actuator.

Example:

Control computer with HMI-Master (active participants) in the central switch with bus connection to the EIB via the KNX protocol as well as links to the heating control via CAN interface. In each floor there are 2 built-in systems with HMI touch panels master as passive participants. Are connected to the computer systems via TCP / IP networking. With this structure, all participants now have access to the sensors and actuators throughout the entire plant.
