Advantech’s Industrial Automation Group has announced the launch of WebAccess, a browser-based software package for Human Machine Interfaces (HMI), and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) devices. Advantech WebAccess provides remote control and management allowing users to easily view, control, and configure automation equipment in manufacturing facilities, industrial process plants, electric power stations, and building automation systems. In addition, users can easily engineer and develop systems because all the features found in conventional HMI and SCADA software packages are available in an ordinary web browser.

The BAS-3000BC series are BACNet MS/TP remote I/O modules with RS-485 inter¬faces that can be expanded as remote I/O modules for 3rd party BACNet MS/TP DDC controllers. BAS-3000BC series provides I/O models with predefined BACNet objects and services listed as PICS to ensure seamless communication each other. Advantech’s Domain Focused Configuration Tool is a BACnet Utility specially designed for Building Automation, and is a powerful graphical configuration tool. After simple training, general engineering technicians will be able to easily configure their Advantech BACnet 3000BC I/O modules.

Advantech WebView-1000 series are web browser-based human-machine interfaces (HMI) and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) platforms. All the features are available in an ordinary Web browser including Animated Graphics Displays, Real-time Data Control, Trends, Alarms and Logs, Scheduler, and more.

Advantech DDC (Direct Digital Controller) are powerful integrated field controllers suitable for building automation applications. Through various onboard I/Os and expansion IO modules, they provide versatile options to satisfy a wide range of application requirements. Their compact size makes them an ideal solution to fulfill BA applications. Advantech DDC features BASPro, an easy-to-use graphical programming tool that helps engineers develop applications quickly. BASPro delivers many function blocks suitable for BA applications, such as scheduler, HVAC calculation, sequential control, PID control, alarm, message, etc

Advantech's Energy Data Concentrator supports serial communication ports and several networking interfaces. Pre-installed with Advantech's WinCE WebAccess management software, the BEMG-4110 and BEMG-4220 are browser-controlled Energy Data Concentrators, whose Web Server function increases flexibility and convenience, making it easy to configure and maintain the system via the Internet. With a built-in driver, the BEMG-4110/4220 can connect to and collect data from a wide variety of automation equipment and devices.
