Omron Customer Software HMI Selection Guide

Стр. 1

Selection guide for choosing the appropriate software HMI platform. . Omron Software Visualization Alternatives Machine visualization can be done via dedicated hardware such as the Omron NA5, NB, NYE series HMI, but Omron also has a full range of software based HMI. One of these software solutions may be a better choice for certain applications, such as those where other manufacturing software needs, besides the HMI function needs to be available. Soft NA, w/dongle Soft NA, part number is a virtual version of the NA5 series of dedicated machine HMI. Screens are developed using Sysmac Studio. Applications developed in Soft NA are portable to the dedicated NA5 series of hard HMI.

Soft NA can be used by the customer who want the machine HMI on an IPC or it can be used in place of the NA5 series dedicated HMI. Soft NA Part numbers are licensed with a USB dongle.

See Soft NA here: https://automation.omron.com/en/us/products/family/Soft%20NA NS Runtime NS-Runtime is a virtual version of the NS series of dedicated HMI. Screens are developed using CXONE/CX Designer software and brings all the features and capabilities of the NS-Series advanced touch screen directly to your PC or IPC, with the additional convenience and functionality of a PC. Access PLC and other automation data side-by-side with machine documents, manuals, videos or programs. NS-Runtime can be an alternate solution for customers that have been using the hardware based NS series HMI which was discontinued in February 2022 due to part shortages.

Customers, in most cases, can take their existing hardware based NS HMI applications and run them on an IPC or PC hosting NS Runtime. NS-Runtime part numbers are licensed with a USB dongle that ships from the warehouse, Note: In some cases applications developed for the hardware based NS-Series of HMI will need to be downgraded to run on NS-Runtime software. Consult your local Omron FAE. NS-Runtime will run on any IPC or PC with the following minimum specifications. See NS Runtime here:

Aveva Edge Omron AVEVA Edge is an easy-to-use, powerful, and affordable HMI/Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) software with a custom tag/variable-based driver set for Omron controllers and devices. An IoT/Industry 4.0 solution for Omron industrial PCs, industrial panels as well as embedded and mobile devices. Aveva Edge runs on an IPC or a PC and will provide a high function HMI to Omron controllers as well as most other controllers and devices available. OMSGY prefix part number come with Omron Compolet driver set for superior interface to the CS/CJ-NJ/NX controllers as well as other controllers and devices.

EDGE and IND prefix parts are available which will provide a high function HMI to Omron controllers as well as most other controllers and devices available but lacks the Omron Compolet driver set for superior interface to the CS/CJ-NJ/NX controllers. Why not use Aveva Edge for all controller HMI interface? HMI software running on and IPC or PC are still vulnerable to malware and ransomware and have the same issues all PCs have such as operating system compatibility, blue screen failures. Many customers would rather have a “closed” HMI system to avoid these issues. Aveva Edge is sold based on numbers of “Tags” serviced by the controller and HMI.

And has a wide range of part numbers to choose from. Aveva Edge will run on the most basic IPC or PC, but the more tags and devices Aveva Edge is required to support, the more powerful the IPC or PC will need to be. Bring in your local Omron FAE to help select the IPC for Aveva Edge based on the application. See Aveva Edge Here: https://automation.omron.com/en/us/products/family/Omron%20AVEVA CX Supervisor CX Supervisor is an Omron developed SCADA system. Since it is developed by Omron, it has a superior interface to Omron controllers.

CX-Supervisor V4 communicates with a whole range of cutting-edge (as well as older) devices, including Omron’s entire range of PLCs, motion devices, temperature controllers and sensors. Designed specifically for PC-based machine visualization, CX-Supervisor V4 is perfect for any PC including Omron’s robust and high-quality NY series purpose-built touchscreen IPC. CX-Supervisor is offered in Machine edition for up to 15 devices (PLCs, motion devices, etc.) and up to 500 tags or data points. CX Supervisor Plus will support a higher level of devices and tags based on the power and capability of the IPC or PC used as the host.
