For users of iFix looking for a way to Web-enable the application, GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms has developed the Proficy HMI/SCADA—iFIX WebSpace, a Web client that enables "real-time data for everyone." This application enables full control and visualization capabilities of iFIX screens and functionality over a company’s intranet or Internet system without the need to change or alter the iFIX application.
WebSpace caters to the need for easy-to-use, remote operational clients, providing companies with the option to extend operational information to key stakeholders, who may not be directly connected to the plant, for purposes of planning and analysis.
Users can run multiple iFIX WebSpace clients, viewing many systems from one point, or launch multiple sessions from one iFIX system to view different aspects of a single application. An e-Signature feature enhances security by providing an audit trail throughout the Web.
This new application has many configurations and can be installed on an independent, dedicated server (when a large number of clients are expected) or on the main iFIX server. Additionally, multiple WebSpace servers can be installed to scale the total application to a larger architecture to serve stakeholders on a global scale.
