Infinite™ HMI (I-HMI Mobile) is a mobile application that allows real-time monitoring of your industrial system through the server’s API (Infinite™ HMI Extender (I-HMI Extender) and Infinite™ Server Connect (I-SC)), connecting only through VPN secure authentication. From compatible mobile devices, users can see critical indicators, alarms, active job status, and other key metrics published by the I-HMI Extender, enabling fast and remote supervision without needing to be in front of the physical HMI panel.
I-HMI Mobile connects to servers that have been configured for remote access through DPPS Infinite infrastructure and authorized Cloudflare tunnels. Each user logs in with their company account and only sees the servers that have been explicitly enabled for their role and permissions. This approach improves security and simplifies connectivity, especially when systems are geographically distributed or accessed by remote support teams.
The Infinite™ HMI Web (I-HMI Web) application running on the industrial server remains the single source of truth. I-HMI Extender decides what information is published to I-HMI Mobile, and at what level of detail. If the owner company considers it a risk to share information about the status of the automated system, they can partially or completely disable the publishing services directly on the server where I-HMI Extender is installed.
Key Benefits & Capabilities
1. Access and Connectivity: Enables mobile access from personal devices to industrial automation systems through the I-HMI Extender API. Connections are established through secure HTTPS endpoints, typically exposed via Cloudflare tunnels dedicated to each customer or facility. Removes the limitations of local Wi-Fi discovery by using authenticated, internet-based connectivity controlled by your company.
2. Real-Time Monitoring: Provides real-time information from Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI) and PLC readings. Offers visibility into the status of robots, secondary components, and recipe statistics by station. Provides immediate visibility of machine issues, process anomalies, and production status, depending on what the HMI system publishes.
3. Interface and Usability: User-friendly interface design and intuitive navigation. Compatible with English and Spanish to extend team accessibility inside your facility. Offers a historical reporting module adaptable to each user's needs (when enabled by the HMI system).
With I-HMI Mobile, companies enhance their system flexibility and the ability to respond to incidents without physical contact with the equipment; operators and managers can make faster decisions based on accurate, up-to-date data shared from their I-HMI Web. Reduce downtime, optimize daily workflows, and promote consistency among stakeholders in production processes with a secure mobile extension.
