If the CODESYS WebVisu is implemented in the ctrlX PLC App runtime environment of ctrlX CORE, the device can display graphical user interfaces on connected HTML5-capable web browsers.
Integrated in the ctrlX PLC Engineering, the development of an IEC 61131-3 logic application as well as a classic or object-oriented visualization development becomes possible with one and the same development environment.
In CODESYS WebVisu, the controller features an integrated web server that makes image and variable data available in a data network. These data can be displayed on any HTML5-capable display devices with a standard web browser.
Project engineering with the editor integrated in the ctrlX PLC Engineering: The web server supports all visual elements of the ctrlX PLC Engineering on a controller with a ctrlX PLC App.
Visualization management via:
Specification of the display on the target device (update rate, width and height in pixels)
Universal modification of all masks via CODESYS Visualization styles
Management of actions by assignment of hot keys or mouse events
Setting of user groups for the graphic interface

New as of Version / Patch 3.6.3: Scalable Licenses
With the introduction of ctrlX AUTOMATION Patch 3.6.3, the licensing model for the CODESYS WebVisu App has been optimized and transitioned to scalable licenses.
What has changed?
The previous, universal standard license (R911411670 / SWL-W-XC*-COSY*WEBVISU***- NNNN) has been discontinued and is no longer offered in the Store.
Important Note for Existing Customers:
Previously purchased licenses (R911411670) will, of course, remain valid on your existing systems. For new projects or functional expansions from system version 3.6.3 onwards, please select the appropriate scalable license from the available portfolio.
