CSE-Semaphore TWinSoft Suite version 11

CSE-Semaphore has released TWinSoft Suite version 11 for its TBox remote terminal unit (RTU) products.

TWinSoft 11 provides a menu-driven environment for programming in IEC 61131-3 Ladder Diagram as well as function blocks and Basic. In addition, TWinSoft Suite includes TWinSoft Automation, which is an environment that allows users to interact with such Microsoft applications as Excel and Visual Basic rather than process automation languages.

Via simple, menu interactions, TWinSoft allows users to rapidly configure the IP, web and telemetry technology platform in TBox RTU products. This technology features an integral web server and push technology via email, FTP and SMS text messaging.

The key update provided in version 11 is the company’s WebForm Studio 2.0. With WebForm Studio 2.0, users can build live process displays that are compatible across all web-enabled devices including smartphones, tablets and PCs. All information in a TBox - alarms, live information, and historical data - is available to PC and mobile device users anywhere.

The company’s configuration environment incorporates Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX), the agnostic technology of reference for Web 2.0 and scalable vector graphics (SVG). No programming or device-specific apps are required.

With WebForm Studio 2.0, there is no required software licensing. The environment is available at no additional cost with version 11.
