This application is to be installed on the operator device, e.g., Windows computer, tablet, or smartphone. The configured operator app is registered there and finally the system is operated.
The "Unified-E App Client" application is to be installed on the operator device and hosts the HMI operating apps.
This application is available for three platforms:
To start operating, the app package generated by the App Designer must be installed in the Unified-E App Client. The Unified-E App Client allows the installation of multiple operator apps. This way, for example, the operator apps of different plants can be monitored via a single smartphone.
The Unified-E App Client supports both direct communication with endpoints and gateway communication, where endpoint communication runs through the server (Unified-E App Manager). More about the types of communication can be found here.
Even on the Windows platform, numerical or text inputs can be operated with an integrated soft keyboard. Depending on the application, the full-screen or window mode can be selected.
