Anders Nilsson Schening continues, "iX's unique advantage lies in its innovative software, both for development and runtime phases, that surpasses everything that currently exists on the market. And the time savings benefits are exceptional."
Innovative openness
Available in a number of options as the combined hardware/software iX HMI System or as software only, Beijer Electronics' iX affords you the innovative openness to create and operate applications with the same access to functionality as if you had programmed it yourself. iX forms itself to your needs, providing the applications you require exactly the way you want them. And supporting Microsoft's .Net framework, iX offers infinite creative possibilities for customization and the freedom to create your own objects.
Time savings
With iX you have an application that works within 2 minutes. The simple and accessible nature of iX means that even those lacking HMI experience will be able to use it while its openness allows it to communicate with all PLCs. And, since all the functions one could possibly need are already pre-programmed, they only need to be integrated and configured into a Windows environment. Advanced graphics are also possible in seconds AS iX enables integration of a vast array of attractive graphic objects in just a few seconds. Further, iX has no limits. The simplest and the most complex HMIs can be programmed rapidly. iX's simplicity means the highest-quality HMIs can be realized.
Windows standard streamlined HMI simplicity
Everyone from developers to operators will feel right at home with iX. The solution features Windows standard components to provide you with HMI in a format that´s familiar, appealing and easy-to-learn and use. Service material can be easily accessed directly via the HMI while expanding the visual potential of instructional documents and your HMI can access and be accessed via the Internet. The Beijer Electronics iX concept takes HMI to the next level, providing you with the future-proof solutions affording openness and first class functionality as well as the reliability that generates confidence in your applications. Utilizing iX, you´ll always be guaranteed the very best in cutting-edge HMI solutions that will work for you today, tomorrow and the day after that," clarifies Anders Nilsson Schening.
With WPF vector-based graphics enabling excellent control, design and development of user-interfaces, you´ll enjoy crisp, clear images whatever the magnification.
