Advantech WebAccess is a browser-based HMI/SCADA software allowing users to control and configure systems remotely over the internet with a central project database and distributed SCADA architectures. Advantech Studio is a powerful, integrated collection of automation tools including all the building blocks required to develop HMI/SCADA applications. Advantech’s complete SCADA/HMI software offering empowers professionals to develop applications efficiently and cost-effectively.
The Industrial Automation Group of Advantech introduces a standardized interface for industrial device servers, the OPC (OLE for process control) Server. An OPC server provides devices, such as an I/O device, to communicate with a wide range of HMI/SCADA software packages residing on a host. Any software system with OPC client capabilities can access the Advantech OPC server drivers.
Advantech’s software development kits (SDKs) include ActiveX controllers, such as A-DAQ Pro and LogixView, and utilities, like ADAMView and DiagAnywhere. With these software development tools, programmers can build data acquisition and remote monitoring systems easier and more flexibly.
Advantech's Programmable Automation Controller (PAC) solutions leverage KW Software's Multiprog and ProConOS as the single developing tool and SoftLogic control kernel. It requires only a one-time design, and then users can easily leverage their control know-how into different control platforms to meet versatile automation projects and save costs.
