COMPOSER® with INTUITION®
COMPOSER® with INTUITION® is Watlow’s new, easy-to-use software for configuring and customizing controllers. Use it to optimize Watlow’s F4T, D4T, EZ-ZONE® RM and EZ-ZONE PM products for specific applications. Task-specific views simplify all aspects of commissioning new controllers including managing the inputs and outputs from pluggable flex modules, setting up functions such as control loops and alarms and creating and editing profiles. COMPOSER software is included on the “Watlow Support Tools” DVD and available for download at www.watlow.com.
EZ-ZONE® Configurator
EZ-ZONE® Configurator software allows Watlow® EZ-ZONE products like PID controllers, integrated controllers, solid state controllers and others to be configured in one simple process. Its interface is flexible and easier to read than the basic remote user interface (RUI). It operates without requiring purchase of communications options as it uses the standard bus communications protocol that is included with all EZ-ZONE products.
SpecView SCADA Software
SpecView is easy-to-use Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) software for Watlow controllers, including the F4T with INTUITION® process controller, ASPYRE® power controller and EZ-ZONE® controllers, as well as third-party products. Watlow's single point of support for hardware, software and application needs ensures knowledgeable and prompt responses to questions or concerns.
This competitively priced package includes field-proven features, many suggested by loyal users. Built-in support and auto-detect for Watlow controllers make setup quick and simple. SpecView from Watlow is ideal for industrial applications with support for bar code readers and touch-screen operation.
EZwarePlus & EZware-5000
The EZwarePlus & EZware-5000 operator interface software suites create, edit and manage projects for Silver Series and Silver Series EM operator interface terminals (OIT).
The programming software features a large variety of built-in screen objects that makes it easy to use and very powerful. When creating screens, the user can call upon extensive graphics libraries, import custom graphics and add numeric displays, entry fields, analog meters, bar graphs and trend graphs with just a few mouse clicks. Screen objects are highly customizable, and the user can create libraries of their own objects for repeat use. The online simulator, Ethernet and universal serial bus (USB) support make testing and downloading fast.
EHG® SL10 Software
The EHG® SL10 controller software allows the user to configure, monitor, log and chart data from Watlow's EHG SL10 integrated multi-function controllers. The controller software provides an easy-to-use and centralized interface for multiple EHG SL10 controllers.
This controller software gives the user the ability to change set points, label devices and much more all with the click of a key.
LabVIEW™ Driver
This instrument driver for National Instruments' LabVIEW™ software communicates with Watlow's F4T controller, D4T data logger, and the EZ-ZONE suite of controller products via the standard bus communications protocol that is included with all of these products.
The LabVIEW™ instrument driver software package, created with LabVIEW™, simplifies development of applications such as test software. These instrument drivers include software functions called LabVIEW™ Virtual Instruments (VIs) that are used with LabVIEW™ to communicate with Watlow products.
EZ-ZONE® GSD Editor
The EZ-ZONE® GSD Editor software allows users to create custom general station description (GSD) files for configuring communications between EZ-ZONE products and other automation equipment supporting the PROFIBUS DP communications protocol.
EZ-LINK™ Mobile Application
Watlow’s EZ-LINK™ mobile app allows users to easily set up, monitor and adjust Watlow® PM PLUS™ and EZ-ZONE® PM controllers via Bluetooth® wireless technology. The app is available free-of-charge from the app stores for phones and tablets and provides access to the controller’s parameters with fully spelled out names in plain text with help topics that explain each parameter and option.
When connected to a controller, the app’s home page displays up to 20 parameters. Users can configure which parameters appear on the home view with the controller’s custom home page. The All Parameters feature in the app allows users set up the controller’s inputs, control settings, alarms, outputs and other features and functions.
After setting up the controller, EZ-LINK can be used to save the settings in a file that can be imported into other controllers, shared with other users and inspected with Watlow’s COMPOSER® software. Also the app supports the controller’s password protection, alarm and error indicators, connection to Watlow for feedback and support and accessing device information such as firmware version, part number and serial number.
The app works with all 1/16 DIN PM PLUS and EZ-ZONE PM controllers and limits with Bluetooth® wireless technology. This option is approved for use in the U.S., Canada, Japan, the European Union, Colombia, Australia and New Zealand, with more locations coming soon.
