Schneider Electric Vijeo Design'Air Plus application

Energy management specialist Schneider Electric has announced its Vijeo Design’Air Plus feature in its existing Vijeo designer application for Android and iOS tablets and smartphones.

The product enables users to create a tablet/smartphone project specifically for the tablet/smartphone display size. At runtime, an operator can access the user application to display data and control automation processes on the tablet/smartphone.

The drawing tools can be used to create and edit a visual representation of the automation process. The user can draw shapes and parts (such as rectangles, arcs and pies), Toolchest parts (such as numeric displays, switches and bar graphs), use the gradient feature to enhance the colour of the drawn objects and set up an alarm panel for remote alarm monitoring.

The app provides operators with the capability to select a user application and, on successful login, download and launch the tablet/smartphone application. The operator can view and monitor an automation process and, for example, change values in numeric displays and string displays. In the alarm panel, the operator can monitor and acknowledge alarms.
