How to evaluate WebIQ HMI running on the CtrlX

I am evaluating the WebIQ software. I have installed the WebIQ designer on my PC  and I installed the WebIQ server app on my CtrlX. I started developing an HMI, I setup the the OPC-UA connection to the CtrlX.

  • I can run the HMI on my PC
  • I am able to copy the HMI to the CtrlX (I can connect to the remote runtime environment in the designer)
  • I do not know how to run the HMI on the CtrlX

It seems I need to setup the project with the CtrlX as target platform. How do I setup an HMI project with a CtrlX as target? Is there like an easy startup guide? And if so, can this be posted on the forum?

Hello,
I think you did everything right. But to access the HMI app on the ctrlX Core, it must be started. "Autostart" should also be set so that the HMI app is automatically reactivated the next time it is restarted.

You can activate these functions in the Remote Runtime Manager Manager:

You can then access it directly via the url http: // <your-ip>: <10123> / <your-app-folder>. E.g. http://192.168.1.1:10123/myApp.

It's a good idea to do a video tutorial here, we'll tackle that.

Further information can be found in the manual: https://www.smart-hmi.de/user/download/deliver/docs/documentation-manual-webiq-designer-2.9-a788/index.html#_managing_remote_runtime_systems

Hope this helps and I wish you every success.
Best wishes
