What's New

Building dashboards in ControlCom Connect just got faster. This update brings keyboard shortcuts, multi-widget selection, and smoother navigation to the dashboard editor.

Keyboard Shortcuts

New keyboard shortcuts let you switch modes, copy widgets, and manage selections without reaching for your mouse. A Shortcuts button in the bottom-right corner of the editor shows all available commands.

Multi-Select Widgets

Select multiple widgets at once by holding Shift and clicking. Once selected, duplicate or delete your entire selection in one action—no more editing widgets one at a time.

Why It Matters

For integrators managing dozens of dashboards across sites, these updates mean less time clicking through menus and more time focused on what matters: keeping operations running. Small workflow improvements add up—especially when you're building dashboards for water systems, manufacturing floors, or distributed OEM equipment.

What's New

ControlCom Connect now lets you simulate data on any dashboard, even when your variables have no live values. You can see exactly how your final design will look with realistic data flowing through charts, gauges, and widgets.

No more guessing. No more waiting for equipment to come online.

How It Works

• Enable simulation mode: Toggle simulated data on any dashboard from the designer's Tools tab.

• See your layout in action: Widgets populate with representative values so you can evaluate spacing, thresholds, and visual balance

• Build demo accounts: Create polished, fully-functional demos for prospective clients or internal stakeholders without connecting to real assets

Why It Matters

For integrators building customer-facing dashboards, this means you can finalize designs before a single PLC is wired. For OEMs creating demo environments, you get a realistic showcase without shipping test equipment.

Whether you're pitching a new SCADA monitoring project or onboarding a water utility, simulated data helps you present a finished product—not a placeholder.
