Introduction

WebIQ Designer is a powerful tool to create HTML5 machine visualizations. Nevertheless, the following functions are still missing:

Variable Manager

  • Important variable attributes clearly listed in one table

  • Editing an attribute of multiple variables with one click, e.g. set communication interval for all selected variables.

  • Cross reference list

  • OpcUA variable check

    • Variable still exists in the PLC?

    • PLC Data type changed?

Recipe Template Manager

  • Sorting of recipe items

  • Grouping of recipe items

Text List Manager

  • GUI to create Global text lists (with optional images)

  • The widget specific text lists of iq-select, creates doubles of identical text lists

The WebIQ Add-On (see attachment), developed by Bosch Rexroth, has these features. It is a standalone HTML5 page that is displayed in the web browser. The WebIQ Connect API documented on https://www.smart-hmi.com is used to implement the features.
