The Movicon.NExT™ Data Server efficiently records all data managed by the software platform using both the Historian and Data Logger technology. The Virtual File System (VFS) technology is also used to extract data despite whatever recording tool is used. Data are recorded in MS SQL Server format for default, but database connectors are available for Oracle, My SQL databases and Cloud computing, such as Microsoft Azure.
A new era in Supervisory and Control
A software architecture designed as a platform for cutting edge automation systems at any scale
Exceptional XAML graphics
Create dynamic vector interface system graphics in 2D and 3D, with graphics libraries of high-quality objects and symbols.
HTML5 Web Client
The HTLM5 standard ensures maximum portability across platforms and OS, with high-quality performance and graphics.
Performance and Reliability
Speedy communications, real-time data management and enhanced graphics are ensured — without any performance compromise.
Movicon.NExT™ licensing policy
Movicon.NExT licensing model is simple, flexible and modular, and is designed to adapt to your specific need and limit costs based on your application requirements. We offer a Client-Server license model based on the number of TAGs exchanged with the field. Optional features can be purchased on an as-needed basis.
Movicon.NExT modular licensing format:
The all-inclusive development environment (Editor) helps create any type of Movicon.NExT™ project, and allows you to purchase the Runtime License most suitable for your project needs.
Purchasing the Editor License entitles you to top-level technical support.
The Movicon.NExT™ runtime license size count is based on the number of “TAGs” declared in the project and exchanged in the field.
“TAG” means any variable “connected to the field” in bit, byte, word, float and double/long 64bit, even when defined as an array or structure member. Single bits of the byte, word and other variable types can be pointed to.
Note: Each member in Structure and Array variable types count as one Tag.
Note: Internal Tags are not counted (those not connected to the field).
The Runtime licenses are offered as both PRO and LT for Server, Client or Client/Server versions.
- SCADA Pro: I/O Server, HMI visualization, PLC Drivers, Alarm Manager, Recipes, Historian, Scheduler, logic.
- Server Only: I/O Server, PLC Driver, Alarm Manager.
- Client Only: HMI Client (connected to I/O Server or other OPC UA Servers).
Web Client Option: option on server for access via HTML5 Web Client or APPs.
Demo Mode
When no license is detected at startup, Movicon will alert the user and run in ‘Demo mode’ with a fully functional editor and a maximum runtime limit of two hours.
Movicon.NExT™ is compatible with Windows 10
