Challenge
For more than 30 years, industrial
processes have been controlled through
computerized schematic representations
of the plant. Often in today's plants,
displays contain poorly designed
graphics with poorly presented numeric
data, which in turn causes inefficiencies
in plant operations. Poor HMIs are cited
as contributing factors to major
industrial accidents.
PAS High Performance HMI
™
Improve operator situational awareness
Key Benefits:
• Optimizes operator
awareness of
process states
• Enables immediate
detection of abnormal
conditions
• Assists in rapid
decision making
• Displays key
performance
indicators and
process trends
Solution
For processes to be effective, operators must be effective. Hexagon provides operators with
the right tools to effectively run the process, detect abnormal situations and respond quickly.
Applying High Performance Human-Machine Interface (HMI) principles increases operators'
situational awareness, resulting in quicker decision-making and more accurate operations.
PAS High Performance graphics convert raw data into actionable information. This is
accomplished by using color to effectively draw the operator's attention to abnormal
conditions, leveraging multiple visualization methods, and emphasizing easily scanned
analog depictions.
PAS High Performance Object Libraries and comprehensive methodology for designing
effective, high-performing displays provides operators with information needed to control
the process and respond to deviations rapidly and effectively.
