Building complex HMI screens for your industrial systems just got much faster. The latest update to ControlCom Connect focuses on reducing the manual work required to build and maintain detailed system diagrams, especially when managing large numbers of variables across production lines.

Find and Replace Variables

When you are managing a large-scale deployment, updating variable mappings one by one is time-consuming. Now you can find and replace variables directly within the diagram editor. This makes it easier to duplicate screens for similar assets or update your data mapping without rebuilding elements from scratch.

New Radial Card Visuals

This update adds a Radial Card primitive to your toolkit. This new element provides a clean, circular visual for displaying key performance indicators (KPIs) like pressure, temperature, or motor speed. It is designed to give operators high-level status updates that are easy to read from across the plant floor.

Advanced Element Control and Logic

We have added more sophisticated controls for element visibility. This means you can create dynamic diagrams where parts of the interface appear or disappear based on real-time machine states. To help you set this up faster, the expression editor now includes quick actions for common logic tasks.

Improved Configuration Tools

Managing your hardware connections is now simpler with several updates to our core tools:

• MODBUS Client Editor: A more intuitive interface for configuring your MODBUS devices and addressing.
• Variable Selection: A smoother experience when browsing and selecting tags for your HMI elements.
• Asset and Namespace Display: Clearer organization of your facility data, making it easier to find the right sensor in a large hierarchy.

These improvements were built for integrators who need to deploy systems quickly while maintaining a high standard of visual clarity for plant managers and operators.
