Create HMI Operator Apps with Joy
The Unified-E App Designer supports all functions of a modern graphical editor. It simplifies the graphical design of user interfaces (views) through easy drag & drop of configurable view elements. The selection and handling of all relevant functional elements and views are supported by the clearly structured editor area 'Project Navigation'.
In the main editor, the views for configuration are displayed, for example, for visualizing data in the form of lists or charts. HMI functions such as push notifications, which should be sent in case of important events like machine alarms, are also defined in the main editor.

User-friendliness was a central theme in the development of the Unified-E App Designer
Configure HMI Operator App
The following main functions are available for designing the operator app or displaying data:
Easy graphical creation of views via drag & drop
Numerous layout and design functions for large displays as well as smartphones and tablets
Dynamic, responsive layouts for different display sizes can be defined
Images and SVG graphics can be easily imported
Integrated simulator significantly shortens development time
Advanced Configuration
For complex HMI topics, predefined view elements such as a recipe table or message table are available, allowing for very individual configuration. Many more possibilities are also described under Functions.
Publish Operator App
Once you have configured your HMI operator app, it needs to be published. For this, an app package file is generated based on the configuration, which is then installed on the operator device with the Unified-E App Client or on the gateway server with the Unified-E App Manager.
Licenses
The Unified-E App Designer is free. Only the runtime licenses for execution on operator devices are chargeable. Execution on operator devices is possible for development purposes without a license (for direct communication) or with a free developer license (for gateway communication).
