The New Workbench and Power Tools

GE Fanuc has always endeavored to balance the acceleration of new features and
technology with an easy-to-use interface. With HMI 4.01, we greatly simplified project
configuration with the introduction of the Workbench.
Workbench
The Workbench is patterned after the Microsoft Windows Explorer. The Workbench
window is divided into a left and right-hand side. On the left is a folder/file tree that
contains the Power Tools. By clicking on the appropriate folder or Power Tool on the
left, you can view the corresponding configuration items on the right. For example, by
selecting the Screens folder you can view the list of screens configured in the system on
the right. You can navigate down, select a particular Device, and view all of the points
associated with it. With the Workbench, you have a new perspective on your
configuration offering you more power and flexibility than ever before.

The hierarchy of folders on the left has been designed to organize your Power Tools into
meaningful and time-productive groups. For example, the items such as Devices and
Ports that are associated with Device Communications are now logically grouped into a
folder. Once these are configured, you may never need those tools again. That sub-tree
can then be closed and you can put away those tools. As another example, the various
alarm configuration tools are now logically grouped together in a sub-folder.

Drag and Drop

The intuitive layout of the Workbench provides a great benefit for reviewing and
understanding your projects configuration. But the great ease-of-use improvements
dont stop there! We have designed the Workbench with drag-and-drop capabilities.
From the list of configured points you can simply drag and drop the points of interest into
the CIMPLICITY Point Control Panel or create a Quick Trend. Developing, testing, and
maintaining your projects has never been easier.
Changing, evolving, improving - With CIMPLICITY HMI the Best just keeps getting
Better!
Basic / Advanced Point Configuration

When you have the most powerful and sophisticated HMI software package available on
the market, that power can sometimes be overwhelming to the first time user. For this
reason we have introduced Basic / Advanced Point. This feature provides a toggle mode
such that when in Basic mode you are only presented with the configuration fields which
Basic Point Configuration
Advanced Point Configuration
are required to collect and alarm for a point. This mode reduces the number of possible
configuration fields you see from approximately 64 down to 14! But in doing this we did
not strip out any of the power behind CIMPLICITY HMI. All that power is still
available by simply toggling the configuration over to Advanced Mode. In Advanced
Mode you obtain access to all of the point configuration capabilities.
Progressive Disclosure
As part of the Basic / Advanced Point Configuration changes we have also introduced a
concept which we call Progressive Disclosure. Progressive Disclosure is another way
of simplifying Point Configuration. As you enter configuration information into the
displayed fields, CIMPLICITY HMI will automatically display additional configuration
fields to you if appropriate. For example, if you select that you want to log information
on a point then additional fields are displayed allowing you to select logging criteria.
GFK-1189N

Intelligent Defaults
Point configuration has been improved with the introduction of Intelligent Defaults for
certain configuration fields. Coupled with the Basic / Advanced feature and Progressive
Disclosure, configuration has never been easier.
Power Tools
The CIMPLICITY Power Tools are the most comprehensive set of monitoring and
control software tools available. The Power Tools consist of software options and
ActiveX objects that provide the functionality you need to construct and integrate your
most demanding applications. The CIMPLICITY Power Tools are designed to work
within the open system framework of CIMPLICITY HMI.

New Power Tools

CIMPLICITY HMIs new power tools provide you with even more functionality for your
most demanding applications.
CIMPLICITY Action Calendar

The CIMPLICITY Action Calendar is a new Power Tool option that allows you to
implement calendar based control operations. With the Action Calendar you can
dynamically create, maintain, and execute a calendar schedule of manufacturing events
and corresponding actions. With the Action Calendar, you can turn on lights, heat, and
equipment based on a schedule, which you configure and maintain through simple point
and click actions.
Action Calendar Configuration and Operation

Configuration of the Action Calendar is easy. The Action Calendar allows you to define
different types of days production, weekend, holidays, to conform to your 4-day or 5
day workweeks, etc. You can then configure manufacturing control events you want to
occur on a particular type of day and the time they should occur. You then simply
associate days on the calendar with a particular type of day. The Action Calendar then
GFK-1189N
Page 5
executes the events and actions you have specified. Want to change a schedule? No
problem. The Action Calendar accepts dynamic changes or overrides to your schedule.
Action Calendar Benefits

How do you measure the benefits of a feature that no other competitor offers? Saving
time and money is one way. Through the CIMPLICITY Action Calendars simple point
and click configuration interface, you can easily setup a schedule of events to be executed
throughout the day. With the competition specialized programming would be required
to match the Action Calendars functionality. The CIMPLICITY Action Calendar saves
you considerable time in configuring your system, but it does not stop there. You save
time every day with the ability to easily alter your schedule to meet your production
needs. And we all know that in todays world, time is money!
The CIMPLICITY Action Calendar allows you to cut operating expenses. With the
Action Calendar, you can cut energy costs by adjusting manufacturing and facility
support equipment to the production schedule. Turn lights and heat on and off based on
user defined work, weekend, or holiday schedules. Adapt your production operations to
flexible work shifts. The Action Calendar helps you cut costs and improve productivity.
You can optimize your production or maintenance activities by scheduling calendarbased events to occur according to a schedule which you pre-define and control.
The CIMPLICITY Action Calendar is yet another reason why CIMPLICITY HMI stands
above the competition. No other package offers the ability to define a flexible calendar to
execute scheduled actions to the production floor. CIMPLICITY HMI and the Action
Calendar another example of how the Best just keeps getting Better!
Action Calendar What do I Purchase?

The Action Calendar Power Tool is sold as an option for CIMPLICITY HMI Servers and
Viewers. The Action Calendar is installed on HMI Servers where you want the control to
occur. In addition, the Action Calendar can be purchased for HMI Viewers to allow the
schedule to be reviewed or modified remotely. The Action Calendar will allow schedule
configuration changes from Development and Runtime Systems on both HMI Servers
and Viewers.
System Sentry
The CIMPLICITY System Sentry is a new Power Tool option which is available on
Windows NT based systems. Running continuously in the background, the System
Sentry is always monitoring the status of your system. The System Sentry will monitor
both your CIMPLICITY processes as well as key operating system and network
parameters.
The System Sentry is a revolutionary tool in the HMI and SCADA world. If you are an
experienced user of monitoring and control systems, at one time or another you probably
wondered how you could establish a baseline of your systems operation and compare it
to current operations. Now you can do this with the System Sentry. If you make changes
GFK-1189N
Page 6
or modifications to your system such as adding new devices, points, or alarms, the impact
on system performance can be directly measured and monitored.
CIMPLICITY parameters and statistics such as alarm frequency, device communications,
data collection and throughput, inter-process communications, data logging, point
management, and user registration are all monitored and recorded. In addition to this
type of information from CIMPLICITY, critical information from the operating system
and network such as CPU performance, memory consumption, NetBEUI connections,
process time, etc. can also be monitored recorded to provide you a complete and up to
date status on the health of your system.
With the System Sentry, you can monitor changes, which occur to your system over time.
You can benchmark how your system is operating when implemented and determine the
impact of changes as your system evolves.
As an added bonus, we are now including a copy of the System Sentry with every new
purchase of a Basic, Premier, and Premier Plus Support Package. If you experience
problems with your system, the System Sentry will allow our CIMPLICITY Helpdesk to
quickly analyze and diagnose what may be the root cause of your problems.
Lets face it. As the size and complexity of your system grows, isnt it nice to know it is
now monitoring its own health so you are aware of potential problems? The System
Sentry another example of how the Best just keeps getting Better!
System Sentry What do I Purchase?

The System Sentry option module is purchased for any CIMPLICITY Server node in
your system, from which you wish want to monitor or view your systems status
information.
Report
Manager
Report Manager is a new
Power Tool option for
CIMPLICITY HMI 4.01 that
provides a simple and unique
solution to your basic reporting needs. What makes Report Manger unique is that it
functions without a database. You pre-configure the reports you want produced on a
timed or event basis and Report Manager will run in the background collecting and
formatting the data for your report(s). Report Manager provides you with a suite of
programs that easily accommodate your process related reports.
While Report Manager works independently without a database, CIMPLICITY HMI still
supports full data logging through ODBC to Microsoft SQL Server, Access or Oracle
databases satisfying your most demanding reporting needs.
GFK-1189N
Page 7
Easy to Design
Design your report template in a

matter of minutes. Use the intuitive
point and click features, such as the
CIMPLICITY Point Browser, design
validator, report previewer, and
keywords to replace the traditional
custom programming or macros
approach. Before final installation,
reports may be tested in accelerated
time mode to verify your design.
Easy to Execute
Produce your report from either the Scheduler or from CIMPLICITY

HMI. The Scheduler executes your report template periodically, for
instance every hour, or based on an event such as a process alarm. In
addition, the Scheduler monitors process conditions and prevents
unnecessary reports from being produced. Your reports are
automatically archived and printed without operator intervention.
Easy to View
Retrieve your electronically stored

reports easily by using simple queries!
The Viewer allows quick and
convenient access to any report at any
time. In fact, you may even display
multiple reports simultaneously for
accurate comparison. Your reports are
now accessible to modern
communication methods, such as
email, fax, LANs, and WANs.
GFK-1189N
Page 8
Report Manager Features
Unattended background reporting is provided by a built-in scheduler. It provides for

the execution of periodic, daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly reports. In addition, it
monitors events and can trigger a report based on an event.
Report Manager maintains its own historical database within the reports being
generated. For example, minimum, maximum, average, standard deviation, and total
values are stored as the reports are generated.
The Report Designer uses point and click methods for easy report template
generation. An integrated point browser displays all CIMPLICITY points for quick
and easy inclusion.
A report sectioning feature enables the creation of complex reports in an easy fashion.
Summary reports that require data from previous reports are built by standard
functions.
Calculation functions, e.g., add, subtract, divide and multiply can be performed
within the report.
The duration between events can be tracked; calculations can be performed on the
duration.
Page numbering (with footer and header section) is provided.
Individual printer selection per report. Single line printing is supported.
The Integrated Report Viewer becomes an integral part of a user display.
The Integrated Report Viewer provides quick access to archived report files. Reports
can be compared easily inside the Viewer.
Values can be entered after the report has been generated, e.g., laboratory data or
values that were (I/O) off-line when the report was made.
A synchronization flag can be set to signify report completion. This flag can be used
to reset totalizers.
Report files are stored in ASCII text files for easy access by any third party package.
Date, time and decimal separator are internationalized.
Support for the graphical character set is provided.
Minimal system resources are required to run Report Manager

Report Manager What Do I Purchase?

Report Manager has two components - The Report Manager Suite and the Integrated
Report Viewer. The Report Manager Suite is purchased for Servers where you wish to
generate reports. This part of the software allows you to configure the reports you wish
to see, gathers the requested data from CIMPLICITY HMI as it is collected, and places
the collected data into the report(s). In addition, the Report Manager Suite includes an
Integrated Report Viewer that is the part of the software that displays your configured
reports. Therefore, for HMI Servers that will be generating reports, the Report Manager
Suite is all that is required.
The Integrated Report Viewer is an option for HMI Viewers or for HMI Servers that wish
to see reports generated by another HMI Server running the Report Manager Suite. The
Integrated Report Viewer provides a window that allows you to call-up and review any of
the reports which have been generated by the Report Manager Suite.
If your application requires fixed types of reports to be generated on a timed or event
basis, then Report Manager can provide your solution. It is important to understand that
while Report Manager is a powerful and flexible option, it is not appropriate for all
reporting application needs. Since it does not operate off a database, ad hoc queries are
not supported. If your reporting applications will require ad hoc queries, then
CIMPLICITY Data Logging to a Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Access, or Oracle
database would be the appropriate approach.
SmartObjects
Version 4.01 introduces SmartObjects within an Object Framework that extends the
COM (Component Object Model) based design of CIMPLICITY HMI to a new level.
Both creation and maintenance of your system will be easier with the new technology
provided by this feature. With SmartObjects you can create objects that can easily be
dragged and dropped from the CIMPLICITY Object Explorer into your screens. When
dropped, you can then be automatically prompted for required configuration information
such as the points to associate to the animation of the object.
The new technology provided by SmartObjects includes:
Linked Objects
Linked Objects save system designers valuable time by providing them with the ability to
change a single object and have those changes reflected throughout the system. With
Linked Objects, you create a master object. As you create new screens, you reference
this object. If you ever want to change the object, you simply modify the master and then
let CIMPLICITY HMI finish the job by updating every screen with a link to the master
object in the entire project. With linked objects, you can easily create templates, which
can be used over and over again reducing system design and maintenance costs.
GFK-1189N
Page 10
Linked Scripts
Linked Scripts are similar to Linked Objects. If you associate a script to a master object,
the script is carried through to each screen that references it. If you ever need to change
the script, the changes will then be reflected through to all of the reference screens.
Object Model
The Object Model is a new and unique feature that provides an extensive external
programming interface for CimEdit and CimView. The Object Model provides you with
the ability to programmatically create and modify any screen with the same capabilities
provided from CimEdit. The Object Model also allows you to have complete control of
CimView from either a script embedded in CimView or from any Visual Basic
Application. For system integrators looking for a way to greatly reduce the time required
to create new systems based off of design and requisition data, the Object Model provides
capabilities never before seen in any HMI product.
Quick Trends
How often have you had a problem in your process and thought to yourself, I wish I
could just pull up a trend on this process variable and watch what is going on. With
CIMPLICITY Quick Trends, your wish is a reality. With Quick Trends a trend chart is
only a point and click away! From within CimView you can select any point that is
included in the screen and have a Quick Trend pop up for the point associated with the
object. From the new CIMPLICITY Workbench or the Point Control Panel you can
simply select points you want to trend and have a Quick Trend pop up and show you how
those points are changing.
GFK-1189N
Page 11
System Points
CIMPLICITY HMI extends the number of pre-defined system points to include a wide
variety of topics including alarms, date and time, project, and computer information.
System points increase your development productivity by exposing internal system
information to you. Since this information is exposed as CIMPLICITY points, it can be
used by the standard CIMPLICITY HMI components such as CimView, CimEdit, and
the Basic Control Engine.
CIMPLICITY was built from the ground up to handle the most demanding multi-user
applications. In a multi-node system the need to obtain system information from a server
versus the local viewer is key. With the implementation of System Points, GE Fanuc has
delivered this important distinguishing feature. The list below summarizes the system
points provided. The nomenclature of $Project refers to the server node while $Local
refers to the computer you are currently working at.

Dynamic Measurement Systems

Some parts of the world use grams, meters, and liters while others use pounds, feet, and
gallons. The English vs Metric measurement systems have always presented a problem
to integrators and OEMs who would like to design a system for todays global world.
CIMPLICITY Dynamic Measurement Systems allows you to do just that. Now you can
develop your CIMPLICITY HMI projects so you can dynamically switch between
measurement systems. You can use the pre-configured English and Metric systems, or
even configure your own measurement systems. At runtime, you can simply switch
measurement systems with a point and click. Now your screens will change not only the
values displayed, but any associated units as well.
CIMPLICITY HMI solving real world problems in a simple manner the Best just
keeps getting Better!
GFK-1189N
Page 13
XY Plots
CIMPLICITY HMI has added another ActiveX control to its list. As an ActiveX object,
XY Plots can easily be inserted into CimEdit / CimView. XY Plots provide the ability to
chart two or more variables against each other. XY Plots are very flexible and allow you
to define multiple X or Y-axis. Ever wanted to plot Temperature vs. Pressure to see if the
old college textbooks were right? Now you can!
XY Plots provides an interface to the Basic Control engine through ActiveX methods.
You can use the Basic Control Engine to feed data you want to be plotted.
Point Cross Reference

Point Cross Reference is a feature that has been added to CIMPLICITY HMI to simplify
the development and maintenance of your projects. With the Point Cross Reference tool
you can see where and how CIMPLICITY Points are used within your project. You can
see where a point is used in the following

Login API
GE Fanuc believes in an open system design approach to our software as exemplified by
our collection of APIs that provide various open interfaces to CIMPLICITY HMI. With
HMI Version 4.01, we have added another open system API to allow you to develop and
implement your own login dialog to CIMPLICITY HMI. While the HMI product
provides security protection through a standard login dialog, high security applications
may require even more advanced user ID and password verification dialogs. You can
create login dialogs with the flexibility, style, and security you require that can be
executed from CimView or from scripts within the BCE (Basic Control Engine). With
the LOGIN API, you can now create a user interface to meet your most demanding login
needs.
GFK-1189N
Page 15
Permanent Alarm Notes

Long time users of CIMPLICITY HMI recognize that its alarm management capabilities
are the best in the industry. With HMI Version 4.01 the capabilities of alarm
management have improved again by allowing you to save alarm notes entered while the
system is in operation, either on a permanent or temporary state. As users enter
comments about a particular alarm, they can now be saved and reviewed by other users.
SPC Enhancements
CIMPLICITY SPC is a client / server application designed for a multi-user, multi-node
environment. While a SPC server process is collecting, calculating, and monitoring your
process data against your configuration, users on HMI Viewers throughout your facility
can be viewing this information via the SPC ActiveX charts and reports that are placed in
CimView screens. The centralized configuration and collection of SPC is a key benefit
and differentiating feature of the product. With centralized configuration, you are
assured that your users are all working off of the same control limits.
The CIMPLICITY SPC option has added some new features for Version 4.01 - Runtime
Spec-Limit Modifications and Runtime Printing.
Runtime Spec Limit Modifications

Runtime Spec Limit Modifications allow you to modify the Spec limits of your SPC
analysis from a Viewer. Now a user with the proper privileges can alter the Spec Limits
for the process and have those changes performed back at the Server that is maintaining
the SPC configuration and calculations. Others users on the system will now see these
changed limits.
Runtime Printing
The SPC ActiveX control has a Print method that enables users to print the contents of an
SPC chart or report to a user specified print device.
Queued Script Execution

CIMPLICITY HMIs Basic Control Engine provides more advanced capabilities than
most packages on the market in that it allows for multi-threaded scripting (i.e. more than
one script can be executed at the same time). Queued Script Execution allows you to
specify the order in which you want your scripts to be executed. With this new feature,
you gain greater control of your system by specifying the order in which you want your
scripts executed.
Long Node Name Support

CIMPLICITY HMI now supports Long Node Names (15 characters) in multi-user
environments.
GFK-1189N
Page 16
Millisecond Time Support

HMI Version 4.01 has increased the resolution of the internal timestamps used to include
the ability to support milliseconds. Timestamp resolution of a millisecond will only be
carried through the system when externally supplied from a device communications
driver or by an Alarm Management API application.
WebGateway Netscape Support

HMI Version 4.01 now supports the popular Netscape Navigator web browser by
extending support to Java applets. With the WebGateway option you can now view your
CIMPLICITY HMI system data in either a Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape
Navigator web browser.
WebView
View your CIMPLICITY screens remotely over the Internet with WebView!
With WebView, you do not have to create special screens or redraw your screens to see
them over the Internet. CIMPLICITY HMI transforms and sends your screen images out
to standard Internet browsers. WebView provides more than viewing - you can set points
as well. WebView lowers total cost of ownership by eliminating the need to install and
maintain CIMPLICITY software on the users computers. WebView licensing is shared
on the HMI Server. When one user is done accessing the system, the license is freed up
for the next user to access. With WebView you have unprecedented power and
flexibility.
WebView Overview
WebView is designed to extend the reach of CIMPLICITY information to users via the
Internet or Intranet. WebView employs the latest Thin Client technology. In simple
terms, this means that bulk of the processing required to provide a user their graphics is
performed on a server node and just the graphic images of the user interface are sent out
to the users web browser. One of the main advantages of the WebView option is that it
requires no CIMPLICITY software to be installed on the users computer. All that is
needed is a Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator browser. The
CIMPLICITY screens are transmitted from the CIMPLICITY Server out to the Internet
browser. Up to 10 WebView concurrent user licenses can be supported from an HMI
Server.

WebView Allows You To View Your Screens Across the Internet!
WebView or Standard HMI ViewerWhich One Should I Use?

WebView is ideal for sharing CIMPLICITY information with a group of casual users.
WebView uses shared licensing. When a user is connected to the Server and viewing
data, they are using the WebView license. When they are finished, that license is freed
up for the next person. WebView allows users such as plant management, finance, or
engineering to obtain access to the process data need to make their decisions. While
WebView is ideal for the casual user of CIMPLICITY, GE Fanuc recommends the
standard CIMPLICITY HMI Viewers for dedicated operators who depend on
CIMPLICITY for running and interacting with the process.

Information Types
Points, (graphics though 3rd

party ActiveX objects)
Points, alarms, graphics
The type of information you wish to display and the number of users are the primary
factors that determine product selection. Screen creation is different for each product.
With the WebGateway you need to create web pages (HTML documents) which can
contain point information as text or can be animated in ActiveX objects. With WebView,
you do not need to create web pages. WebView will slice off the graphics of your
existing CimView screens and send them out to the web browser. If you need to share
your actual CIMPLICITY screens that contain detailed information, including alarms or
process graphics, then WebView is the preferred product.
The number of users that need to view CIMPLICITY information at the same time also
should be considered. The WebGateway is a very efficient and economical method for
sharing CIMPLICITY point information with a large number of users. A typical use of
the WebGateway would be the sharing of production counts or process data to a large
number of users. If you need to share a limited amount of text based information to a
large number of users, then you could consider WebGateway.
WebView Functionality
WebView is designed to present CIMPLICITY CimView graphic screens via web
browsers. WebView provides for the viewing of data as well as performing setpoints.
CIMPLICITY applications outside of CimView cannot be displayed in WebView. For
example, CIMPLICITY applications such as the Workbench, Point Control Panel, Action
Calendar, or Quick Trends that operate in their separate windows outside of the CimView
window cannot be displayed in WebView. Similarly, WebView will not display third
party applications such as spreadsheets or databases.
Third party ActiveX objects which create pop-up dialog boxes may not display properly
in WebView. CIMPLICITY ActiveX objects such as Trending, Alarms, Recipes, SPC,
and XY Plots can display information to users. Interaction with these ActiveX objects is
GFK-1189N

limited. If changing properties of these applications is required, a standard HMI Viewer
should be used.
WebView Server Requirements and Performance

Performance of the WebView is dictated by several factors including the Server
hardware, system loading, and Internet traffic. WebView is based on Thin Client
technology. This means that the Server is responsible for running the application and
delivering the graphics out to the client. Up to 10 WebView users are supported on an
HMI Server. GE Fanuc recommends a minimum configuration of PentiumII/200Mhz
with 64MB RAM for a single user. Support for 10 users requires a minimum
configuration of a dual processor PentiumII/450Mhz with 512MB RAM. A separate
HMI Server is highly recommended to support applications of 5 or more users. The
CIMPLICITY HMI Server supporting WebView license can be of any size equal to or
greater than 75pts. GE Fanuc provides a web server for simple Intranet applications with
the product. For Internet applications, the user must purchase Microsofts Internet
Information Server.
Documentation Enhancements
CIMPLICITY HMI Version 3.2 introduced the Bookreader to provide the ability for you
to search, view, or print the entire library of CIMPLICITY documentation on-line. With
Version 4.01 we have improved the documentation itself by reorganizing, rewriting, and
formatting the documentation so that it is easier to understand.

New Device Communications

CIMPLICITY HMI 4.01 offers several new device communications.
OLE for Process Control (OPC) Client

Communications
HMI Version 4.01 introduces the OLE for Process
Control (OPC) Client for CIMPLICITY HMI. This
open systems standard allows HMI to take advantage
of the hundreds of third party communication drivers
which are being developed. The CIMPLICITY OPC
Client supports data acquisition from automation
equipment via OPC Servers. OPC is an emerging standard that is rapidly gaining
acceptance among vendors of HMI and process automation products. As one of the first
HMI vendors to release support for OPC, GE Fanuc demonstrates its commitment to
open systems and the support of new, open technologies.
OPC is a new standard that builds on the success and strength of Microsoft Windows NT,
Windows 95, and OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) technology. The design of OPC
was begun in 1995, targeted at providing a standard for interoperability among control
applications, field systems and
devices, and business and office
HMI I/O Communications with OPC
applications. OPC is endorsed by

I/O Communications Network
OPC promises lower costs and
increased productivity for end-users,
systems integrators, and process
control vendors alike by focusing
communications issues on a single
technology and strategy.

OPCs benefits to the end user are simple:
Cost savings in application integration by providing a simple plug and play interface
for multiple vendors
Technology that performs better and is faster than DDE
Freedom to select vendors who provide the best of class solution rather than being
captive to a single vendor with a proprietary product.
Series 90 TCP/IP Communications supports Series 90 Fault

Tables
CIMPLICITY HMI now supports access to Series 90 Fault tables. With this new feature
it is possible to identify faults from Series 90 PLC in simplex configurations on the
network and display that information to CIMPLICITY users.
Allen Bradley DF-1 Communications Option

CIMPLICITY HMI is expanding its communications reach again by adding support for
Allen Bradley DF-1 communications. This communications option supports point-topoint serial communications to the SLC-500 PLC family over RS-232 and multi-drop
connections over DH-485 via a 1770-KF3 protocol converter.
Allen Bradley Communications supports SLC-505, ControlLogix,

and ControlNet
The Allen Bradley Communications option now supports
communications to the SLC-505 and Logix 5550 controllers.
Communications to the SLC-505 is supported via both Ethernet and
Data Highway Plus. The Logix 5550 is supported via Ethernet.

OPC Server
Interested in Open Systems?
GE Fanuc leads the industry with OPC Server for HMI.
GE Fanuc is the first to introduce an OPC Server option to
an HMI or Scada software package. This new product
option allows users to share data from their CIMPLICITY
HMI systems to other third party OPC Client applications
such as custom Visual Basic programs, other HMI
packages, or DCS systems. The third party applications
can reside on the same computer or across the network.
OPC Server - another example of GE Fanucs dedication to
open systems design.

Competitive Advantages
The competitive advantages of CIMPLICITY HMI are numerous. With each and every
release we continue to raise the bar and set new standards for monitoring and control
software. The new features and options of CIMPLICITY HMI Version 4.01 continue to
extend its competitive advantages.
Advantage 1 - Workbench
The Workbench provides a unique integrated development environment that helps speed
the implementation of your projects. With the new ease of use features such as Drag and
Drop Configuration, Intelligent Defaults, Progressive Disclosure Dialogs, Configuration
Printouts, and Pop-up Tool Tips you have a work environment which allows you to
drastically reduce integration time resulting in lower project implementation and
maintenance costs.
Advantage 2 - SmartObjects Power Tool

At GE Fanuc we have always taken the open systems approach to designing our HMI
product. With over 25 years of experience helping our customers implement systems
from simple stand alone nodes to complete enterprise wide systems, we learned early on
that no one software product is the center of the universe. To implement an effective
monitoring and control system you need the ability to interface and integrate with your
other software systems. You need the ability to adapt, modularize, and reuse portions of
your applications as you create, expand, and evolve your systems. With CIMPLICITY
HMI Version 4.01 we continue to advance our open systems approach with an object
framework and the introduction of SmartObjects. With SmartObjects you can now easily
GFK-1189N
Page 25
create reusable objects for your application all within the CIMPLICITY product
without the need for C code or compilers.
Advantage 3 - System Sentry Power Tool Option

Lets face it, the systems you are implementing today are probably much more
sophisticated than anything you have dreamed of in the past. As the power and flexibility
of your systems increase, the need to reduce the operation expense and maintenance of
the systems also increases.
The CIMPLICITY System Sentry is designed to help you better manage, maintain, and
operate your system by monitoring the vital statistics of both the CIMPLICITY Software
as well as the operating system and network. After using the System Sentry you will
wonder how you ever lived without the system management convenience it provides.
Advantage 4 - Action Calendar Power Tool Option

If you are implementing a monitoring and control system, chances are you will have the
need to schedule the execution of various events to control your operations. The
CIMPLICITY Action Calendar provides a convenient way to manage and maintain your
schedule of calendar based control actions through a simple, intuitive configuration
interface avoiding custom programming required to accomplish the same functionality in
other packages. Just another way to reduce implementation and system operation costs!
Advantage 5 - Quick Trends Power Tool

How often have you had a process problem and wished you could take any value being
displayed on a screen and quickly create a trend chart to see how that value is changing
over time? Thats what Quick Trends is all about. Now from any CimView screen or
from the Point Control Panel you can simply select the point(s) you would like to see a
trend for and Quick Trends will open a trending window for them. When you are done,
simply close the window. No configuration is required. System maintenance is reduced.
Operators are more productive. The first time you use Quick Trends you will quickly
recognize its benefits.
