TRANSCRIPT
FactoryTalk® View Machine Edition 6.0Versatile Machine-Level HMI for Stand-Alone Applications
FactoryTalk View Machine Edition (ME) software is a versatile HMI application that provides a dedicated and powerful solution for machine-level operator interface devices. As an integral element of the Rockwell Automation visualization solution, FactoryTalk View Machine Edition provides superior graphics, run-time language switching and faster commissioning time through a common development environment.
FactoryTalk View Machine Edition 6.0 adds new features that speed development time by up to 30 percent, while enhancing the functionality and impact of HMI applications for machine-level, PC-based operator interface solutions. These new features include:
effective and compelling displays, in less time.
using a common .csv file format.
application to be deployed in up to 20 languages without cumbersome font-linking.

Features and BenefitsFactoryTalk View Machine Edition offers OEMs and end-users features that reduce development and commissioning time, while improving
retaining the plant-wide scalability.
Reduce design and commissioning time with:
Directory
Built-in Faceplates and Add-On Instructions
and capability through:
View ME can write data logs that are accessible via FTP on an Ethernet
.csv files can be stored on the local PC or PanelView and used to modify values in the controller for recipe changes and/or machine set-up. These recipes can be downloaded to the local terminal via an Ethernet network, as well.
Runtime language switching
character ranges, meaning that multiple-language implementations can be accomplished more easily, without cumbersome font-linking.

Configure and Monitor Alarm Conditions
The FactoryTalk View alarm system quickly alerts you and your operators to conditions requiring immediate
alarm conditions. When an alarm condition occurs during runtime, the system can pop up a predefined display, sound an alarm signal, or send the alarm to a printer. Alarm system features include:
Word alarm triggers based on analog tags, digital tags,
Bit and least-significant bit alarm triggers Ability to acknowledge, silence, and clear alarms

CE solutions and Microsoft Windows desktop operating systems. FactoryTalk Machine Edition is part of the
HMI architecture, making it easy to reuse components of machine-level applications within supervisory-level
consisting of activation procedures, a common address book, centralized authentication and access control, and uniform diagnostics that can help reduce costs and
Simulate Runtime with Quick Test Run Capabilities To make it easy to test your systems as you build them,
Run operates from within the graphics editor to verify

editor. This eliminates the time required to upgrade and requalify the runtime software or upgrade terminals to the latest firmware.
Runtime Language Switching
Edition and FactoryTalk View Machine Edition, supports
design-time languages. You have the ability to configure multiple language versions of an application with the
capability of switching application languages dynamically
strings and allows a single translation for strings that appear multiple times in the application. The built-in
character ranges so multiple-language implementations can be accomplished more easily, without cumbersome font-linking.
