The recipe control system HiBatch is designed according to NAMUR specifications and will reduce costs, improve quality and helps to meet GLP-standards in your laboratory.Automated process execution guarantees optimal reproducibility and documentation.The recipe module HiBatch allows the creation of recipe flow diagrams in minutes without programming knowledge.

A recipe parameter set may be saved and loaded anytime.

Dialogue and display boxes may be changed to your purposes.

Recipe Control with HiBatchRecipe Control with HiBatch


Unit Operations LibraryUnit Operations Library

In the unit operations library you find pre-programmed operations for dosing, tempering, pH - control, distillation etc. All these functions have been programmed with HiText. You may modify these functions to your purposes and expand the library to your requirements.

To create a recipe program, simply drag the needed function blocks from the unit operations library to the recipe flow chart.


To parameterise a function block you just need to click on it in order to open the initialisation form. This is where you may enter e.g. a new quantity.

0 , 0 0

By clicking “apply” or “OK” a routine will verify your input on plausibility.

Intuitive OperabilityIntuitive Operability


During the recipe’s execution the active function block is dyed yellow and a control form with relevant values is shown. The execution of the step and its result will be saved in the monitoring report and optionally documented in a free composeable protocol form.

A special control instance may be added to each unit to stop and continue its operation at definable conditions. In this example, Dosing1 will be interrupted if the inside temperature exceeds 90 degrees and will be continued if it declines 85 degrees.

You may change parameters during runtime by using the Online form.At the Online form all parameters for which changes are impossible or unsuitable are blocked.

Flexibility and Ease of UseFlexibility and Ease of Use


With the (WYSIWYG) form editor you may create sheets with user-defined combinations of indicating and input fields, diagrams, designs and pictures in minutes. Accumulated and computed data will be inserted into the sheet at run-time. All sheets may be printed and saved.Thereby you receive a clear and significant documentation with little effort.

Production of Self-Describing Programs with HiTextProduction of Self-Describing Programs with HiText

HiText is a language for multitasking control, online evaluation and communication.HiText was developed in co-operation with users from the chemical industry. The ambition was to create a self-describing and documenting language for non experts. The module contains a comfortable editor with a set of auxiliary functions and error search assistance.

With HiText you may drag instructions simply from a library on the working sheet. The syntax is examined during the input. Errors are underlined in red and announced in the status bar.


Automatic production of laboratory journalsAutomatic production of laboratory journals

All your worksheets will be presented in a clearly and freely configurable tables and xy/xt – diagrams. Your selection of values will be stored periodically and event-controlled and can be supplemented with comments. With the Labvision modul Laborjournal you may adjust that laboratory journal to ones you might already use. The laboratory journal can be printed and exported as pdf or editable rtf file.


Recipe control with EasyBatchRecipe control with EasyBatchTMTM

EasyBatch provides a new way of recipe creation for small to medium complex processes. EasyBatch enables the user to create a table based, self documenting recipe. It distinguished it self due to easy and intuitive usage. EasyBatch can be used in combination with manual operation.

Beside the commands Set, Wait till, If etc. EasyBatch can call HiText programs. Thereby the possibilites are almost unlimited.


LabVision ensures gapless (compressed!) recording of all data in a database.In the Multiplotter you may view current and historical data.In addition to the measured and computed values, events and phases will be visualised by symbols and bars. Thus the values, events and phases are shown in their most consistent and clear form.

The analog plotter shows the curves’ shape.

The phase plotter for visualisation of operational sequences as a bar chart, here the procedure of the recipe control.

The event plotter for visualisation of events (e.g. alarm messages, user comments).

Consistent Representation of Values, Events and PhasesConsistent Representation of Values, Events and Phases


The symbols shown by the event plotter will explain their cause when hovering your mouse above them.By clicking at a symbol the monitoring report will be opened.

You may select directly a representation time period, zoom in time intervals or choose a historical batch process from a list.

Multiple Reading UtilitiesMultiple Reading Utilities

Various measurement functions will assist you for reading and analysing purposes. Trend, gradient, integral and statistical values may also be read directly. All values may be exported to different file formats.


Online Measured-Value-AnalysisOnline Measured-Value-Analysis

The time axis of the online diagram shows either batch or the general time.You may fade in historical values for comparison.The diagram may be parameterised by menu or HiText - programs.Thereby the online diagram is especially suitable for batch work.


Process ReportProcess Report

Selection filters will help you to retain the overview even with many entries.You may also select a filter for batch operation to highlight all appropriate messages.


In the message report all warning and alert messages as well as acknowledgement-requiring conditions are listed. Each data point may be provided with several monitoring conditions.For the treatment of the monitoring events you may plan various reactions: text messages, starting a control program, alarm calls by E-Mail, SMS or by telephone announcement.

Monitoring and MessagingMonitoring and Messaging


T_RI_X

Connecting Sensors, Actuators and Devices

Connecting sensors, actuators and devices is of great ease:

• choose a desired name,

• choose an automation unit and the data point type,

• select a projected connector by clicking or choose the blinking one by clicking OK.


Creation of Flow ChartsCreation of Flow Charts

You may already use the integrated RI flow sheet editor at your prearrangements.Standard drawings based on DIN/EN 28004 and administration of additional technical apparatus are only a few of his strengths.

This library includes all elements of the DIN/EN 28004 catalogue. A special library with glass apparatus and laboratory devices is available optionally.


Process Pictures for Visualising and Manual Intervention.Process Pictures for Visualising and Manual Intervention.

The worksheets may be dynamized by indicating and controlling elements, process dependent texts and pictures up to online rendered digital photos. Here you may observe the current plant condition and make control interferences. No programming knowledge is needed to create a worksheet. The user administration and access monitoring protect against unauthorised control changes.


Micro Reactions TechnologyMicro Reactions Technology

LabVision is also suitable for micro reaction systems and parallel reactor systems. To design your plant’s worksheet drag the needed components from the library onto the worksheet.


Device ComponentsDevice Components

Realisation of these functionalities with conventional systems requires extensive controlling knowledge and much time to establish the controller parameters. With the LabManager it is simple, since the application orientated device components parameterise themselves.

Device components with application oriented, controlling and communication functions are available. Thereby an easy realisation of automation and central engineering as dosing-, temperature -, pH or vacuum control is possible.

Attaching balances, thermostats or agitators to a serial interface, is easy with the help of the communication components.


Serial Port DevicesSerial Port Devices

Devices with serial interface, whose parameters aren’t preset in LabVision, are easily integrated by means of the NAMUR interface device. Different values and parameters may be sent and received over one interface.


HiSim - SimulationHiSim - Simulation

A new project may be developed and tested without a PNK connected to the computer thereby making it possible to simulate the LabManager as well as the whole process or plant. The needed programming language HiSim is in major parts similar to HiText.

The integrated PNK simulator simulates functionalities of the PNK including the measured values, controllers, monitoring conditions etc.. A project created with the help of HiSim may be transferred to the LabManager without changes.

HiSim allows you to reproduce the process itself. This may be done by assigning the process values to the data points of the inputs, e.g. 99 degr. to a temperature sensor input. Those values may be calculated from the data point values of the outputs.


HiTuneHiTune

HiTune calculates the controller parameters from the controlled system. So this time consuming step-by-step task is just a matter of minutes.

After successful determination of the parameters HiTune adjusts the controller with the determined P, I and D parameters, type and sample rate.


A complete Project Documentation in a Hand‘s TurnA complete Project Documentation in a Hand‘s Turn

With LabVision you enjoy the comfort of creating a documentation in seconds. Instead of working on details for days you just need a mouse-click now. Unnecessary documentation parts may be deselected with a mouse click.

The project documentations may be exported to Excel for further processing or to HTML, e.g. for a company‘s intranet.
