Controls Software, Human Machine Interface, and Communication Networks

In a world where continually changing market conditions have become the norm, facility managers are looking for solutions that help them integrate multiple systems across their facility in ways that their operators can quickly improve their own decision making and overall impact on the plant output. Whether you are interested in our industrial control systems software, Nexus OnCore OptimumC, or looking for more turnkey HMI, network and cybersecurity solutions, we can provide the necessary hardware, software, and security to optimize, expand, and secure your existing controls communication network.

An advanced HMI for your plant brings many benefits. One is the simplification of factory operations and processes, allowing for monitoring all plant machinery. A second main benefit is the ability to see all your processes and how they are performing in real time in one place. This allows the plant manager to respond quickly to challenges or changing conditions, thus reducing downtimes, waste, and cost and improving profitability and processes. Nexus Controls can support your business needs in this evolving space.

What it is?

NexusOnCoreOptimumC is a next-generation software platform developed by Nexus Controls to support the NexusOnCoreControl System and the NexusOnCoreSafety System. It provides acquisition and processing of industrial field data, process and protection control, and human-computer interaction in a user-friendly software operating environment. This easy to use platform enables efficient industrial process control strategy and convenient system maintenance and management for users and gives them the flexibility to make programming changes as needed.

How it Works?

The software architecture for NexusOnCoreOptimumC software provides a consolidated license for both the controller software package and the HMI software package.

The controller software package is installed on the NexusOnCoreControl System controller, or the NexusOnCoreSafety System controller, enabling process control functions such as data communication, process I/O interaction and real-time control and protection. The system software platform is the QNX® Neutrino® real-time multiple task operating system.

The HMI software package is installed on the NexusOnCoreHMI computer, providing such tasks as system configuration, control logic configuration, industrial engineering real-time control and system maintenance and management. The software package supports Microsoft Windows 10 or later, and offers the following features:

  • System application console
  • Integrated system configuration tools
  • Process graphic building tools
  • Real-time process monitoring software, including process graphic display, trend display, etc.
  • Historical data collection software
  • Report production and collection software
  • System self-diagnosis and alarm management software
  • Virtual controller technology
Human Machine Interface and Communication Networks
What is Human Machine Interface?

A Human Machine Interface is any tool or feature that is created so that humans can interface with machines. Most common HMIs are touchscreens and keyboards that connect users to machine, systems, or devices. These are necessary components to any up-to-date network system as machines in plants are being used. Plant managers and operators use HMIs to automate machinery or production lines. Controls engineers need to have working HMI equipment to keep their systems performing their best. From multi-touch control panels to push buttons to PCs and tablets, HMIs do a lot of work for us, but you need to make sure they are in excellent working order.
