As we’ve settled into the new year, don’t forget to check the status of your software support. If your AVEVA InTouch software version is nearing end-of-life, plan your next steps now to avoid potential cybersecurity threats or system interruptions. AVEVA InTouch Unlimited is the latest and greatest of InTouch offering a supported, futureproof system while maintaining the same user-friendly experience and an easy migration from legacy versions.
AVEVA InTouch Unlimited is a standalone SCADA system with the capability to communicate with programmable logic controllers (PLCs), alarm systems, historian, data and the human machine interface (HMI) visualization software that operators use to interact with equipment.
With AVEVA InTouch Unlimited, users now have access to unlimited tags, clients and total architectural flexibility in a more approachable pricing model. Tags are unique identifiers for data elements that represent specific measurements or control actions within the process. Each tag is associated with a physical component in the process system, enabling operators to organize the data collected by instrumentation, send commands to actuators, and continuously monitor device status. With unlimited tags, organizations can quickly integrate new data points. There is no more worrying about investing in new systems to accommodate a tag capacity that will monitor a broader range of parameters and allow granular control over processes.
The other major upgrade from the previous version of InTouch is the integration of AVEVA Historian with the standard license of InTouch Unlimited. Historian is a data management solution that collects, stores, and analyzes time-series data from PLCs, sensors, and other sources. Historian makes data easily retrievable for analysis, reporting, and visualization. Cross-referencing historical data alongside real-time data in the HMI can facilitate decision-making and operational insights.
Easy Scalability: InTouch Unlimited removes licensing constraints so you can connect as many users, devices, and sites you need as your business grows without incurring additional costs.
Accessible Connectivity: With full browser-based HMI/SCADA functionality, InTouch Unlimited works everywhere, with configurable secure access from even outside the OT network. This enables your team to access real-time data, guided help, geo-asset tracking, and inventory management from connected devices.
Advanced Reporting and Analytics: InTouch Unlimited, equipped with AVEVA Reports for Operations and AVEVA Historian, provides enhanced insights and boosts process efficiency. Configure automatically published PDF and spreadsheet reports to meet compliance requirements and optimize your processes.
