I'm trying to set something up, not quite sure what to call it. I want to call it a SCADA system but I don't know if that's correct.
Our product utilizes 1 Micrologix 1400 PLC and 1 PanelView Plus 600 terminal. These products are installed into a room and generally are operated from that room.
We have a customer who would like to view realtime information from our machine (and possibly change settings) on their PC computer located in another room (away from the installation room).
What software is best suited for this type of application? I was looking into RSView SE or FactoryTalk SE but at first glance they seem like overkill? Also I'm wondering why I would want to buy separate software that needs to be programmed when I already have the FactoryTalk View Studio program used for the PVP 600.
Definitely could use some guidance.
Thanks in advance!!
