Modern Templates - Navigation
HistoryPage Back and Forward menu
Tabs showing the open (recent) pages that have been launched
from right side panel
Page specific Menu commands, such as save and print for alarms.
Up navigation command changes the display to the “parent” page. Left / Right
navigation commands display the previous / next page relative to the
current page.
Option to switch between navigation tree representing
the Menu Configuration or
Equipment hierarchy
Click on the plus and minus signs next to the nodes to expand and
collapse items
Click on the menu item to open page in tab
11
Equipment Design
An intuitive graphical user interface in whichan engineer can efficiently configure equipment templates and equipment hierarchy instances. Standardizes the configuration and reduce engineering time to deliver consistency bothwithin and across projects.
12
Equipment Editor
• Allows the creation, deletion, modification and updating from a centralized location of
• Equipment Instances (hierarchy)• Equipment Types (templates)
• This enables a reduction in the time required for engineering time and also minimizes the learning curve for engineers by simplifying the process
Equipment Editor accessed from Citect Explorer
13
Equipment workflow
• Create Equipment Types (templates)• Define the elements (associated tags) that belong to the Item • Define the fields of the element • Define the custom parameters (if needed) for the equipment type • Define the Accumulators and/or Equipment states for the equipment type
• Create Equipment instances (hierarchy) • Customise equipment field properties
• Update Equipment (Project Editor)• Auto-generates all the associated tags for the defined equipment instances
14
Equipment Editor – Types
List of equipment
types
The navigation showing the equipment types that
have been launched from side panel
List of Items (tags, alarms, trends) for the
equipment type

Custom Parameters button. Click on this button
to reveal the Custom parameters panel.
15
Equipment Editor – Instances
Equipment hierarchy tree
listing all equipment instances
The navigation showing the equipment instances that have been launched
from side panel
Equipment description. Link to the Equipment type used as template
for object
Equipment workspace. Displays available
equipment fields, with referenced fields pre-populated with values
defined in the type
The Editor uses a dockableframework so all panels can be re-positioned by the user

Object Based Referencing
Delivering the capability for engineers togenerate equipment libraries by allowingthe creation of matching graphics anddatabase components
18
Object Based Referencing
• Now possible to access data points via equipment.item reference: • On graphic page• In Cicode functions• In CtApi• In Genie• In metadata in super Genie• Reading tag extension
• Not available when:• Reading alarm property as tag• Used as tag definition in alarm
or trend form (configuration)

Powerful Connectivity & Interoperability
Enabling two way data transfers from thecontrol level of the software suite, up to theenterprise level, or down to the device level. Customers will get the data they need, whereand when they need it.
22
EWS Server• Real-time information only, not alarm or trend information
• EWS 1.1 (Basic Exchange Profile)• GetWebServiceInformation• GetContainerItems• GetItems• Set and GetValues
• HTTPS protocol• Secure communications (username and password required)• SSL certificate required
23
