    We are not using a specific HMI in this video course, this is a rather general video course on HMI. But these are some relevant HMIs, if you are interested:
    MTP 1200 HMI panel bit.ly/309YRMc
    KTP 1200 HMI panel bit.ly/3j8derH
    We also have a video about this, which might be helpful ua-cam.com/video/C-PXhMp-Vtw/v-deo.html
    Happy learning!

    I never realized there was a standard or a certain way that HMIs should be laid out. Looking at this makes me think our SCADA system at work needs a serious upgrade. Thank you!

    This video is a great attempt to bring awareness on what constitutes a good HMI philosophy (HMI design specification). What I have seen so far in my career is that there are organisation which believe in preparing an HMI design specification and there are others which don't really care if the same is even provided to a control system vendor leaving the onus either on the control system vendor or on to the client for providing control system vendor with HMI graphic screenshots of their up and running existing facility.
    In the latter case, I have seen that EPC contractor would just dump P&IDs to the control system expecting control system vendor to figure out by itself what information to include from P&ID and what not to. I am a firm believer that in addition to HMI design specification, HMI screens should be specifically developed in CAD as per the project requirement and shared with the control system vendor. Otherwise, results of dumping P&IDs on control system vendor is bad and can be disappointing in the end.

      I don't think CAD is required as the modern control system vendors should have a basic understanding of making effective HMIs given that there are good standards and practices shared by ISA and other organizations even the OEM.

      @@Techwem Our assumptions often lead to disappointing results in the end. HMI design specification and HMI screens should be provided by EPC contractor to the control system vendor along with Alarm management document. Without these documents, there will be no control over the final quality delivered by system vendor and in the end will only lead to disappointment. In short, don't leave it to the system vendor, take responsibility of preparing these documents yourself and be in control of quality you expect from your vendor.

    Yet another great video from RealPars!
    There are certainly challenges in the process world to make efficient HMIs so this video is a huge help towards better human and machine interactions.
    Is there something in the works at RealPars that shifts the discussion towards machine HMIs with buttons, functions, I/O, recipe or settings input fields, screen navigation, etc? Tanks, pipes, pumps, and analog values are not typical in machine HMIs, so any input from RealPars would be much appreciated!
    Thank you, RealPars team!

    • @realpars
      @realpars  3 роки тому

      We do have some videos at Realpars.com that look at machine control (conveyors) and pushbutton interfaces. we also have a complete course on configuring the Siemens Basic Panels using TIA Portal. the same HMI standards would apply to pushbuttons, functions, etc, where the use of red and other colors would be reserved for alarm conditions. I usually use a dark gray for buttons or lamps that are energized and a light gray or "hollow" for the de-energized state.

    Thx amazing work,
    could you mention the Color code of
    1- analog indicator status (Normal, Low. LowLow or High High)
    2- Top of Valve
    3- Chart in tanks

    • @realpars
      @realpars  3 роки тому

      The color scheme should be determined by an HMI Style Guide or another specification document. For an analog indicator status, for indicating the normal value, white or another neutral color can be used. For abnormal conditions (alarm conditions), red or yellow are typically used. The topworks for a valves usually indicate a normal position as white or light grray and an abnormal condition as red. Charts in tanks (or elsewhere) should use a neutral or light cyan color as a background with a black line trace. The chart scale should be automatically adjusted to show the limits of the chart values.

    Great Video but, I would slightly disagree on the analog display, the arrow Pointer works for levels but maybe not for Pressure, flow rates, temperature. a smaller rectangle display for those it much cleaner on a screen in practice as you can put it right on the line. just my opinion i have only been designing HMI for about 18 months.

    In the case of agitator blades inside a vessel with the requirement for a visible run status, how would the High-Performance HMI Philosophy apply to drawing equipment inside of vessels while including trend data.

    • @realpars
      @realpars  3 роки тому

      Typically, an agitator status follows the motor status, so when the motor is running, the motor object should be white or a neutral color. Only when an abnormal situation occurs should a color like red be used. Agitator speed can be displayed with an analog value object, as shown in the video.

    Thank you for such a great informative video. As an electronics engineer, I really like the HP HMI, but I have to build HMIs according to technical guidelines, and clients always have their own point of view. In this example, I would change some details: under all tanks, the measured value is indicated without units of measure, I try to always indicate the level and volume of liquid in the tank. And the arrow showing the actual level on the tank should be thicker and possibly not red. Do you think these changes will improve or degrade the quality of the HMI?

    • @realpars
      @realpars  2 роки тому +1

      If you and the client believe the changes are helpful, then by all means, make the change. HP HMI principles are guidelines that are useful in creating operator-friendly, efficient HMI screens. I have not done any projects in the past 10 years that strictly obey 100% of this "standard". There will always be changes, but they should be minor, as the changes you have suggested. Any change that makes it easier for the operator is a valid change; any change that distracts or causes an operator to lose focus on what is important, is not a good change. Showing the units for a PV is likely a good thing, although it does take up real estate on the screen and is one more thing the operator would need to focus on. If the plant uses the same units for each measurement type across the system, then units could be considered optional. Likewise, if you show a numerical value of level or volume, does that enhance the understanding of the process over a trend line in the tank showing the level? You need to decide whether it does or does not.

    • @realpars
      @realpars  2 роки тому +1

      Siemens software can be purchased at marketplace.realpars.com. What you will need for your specific hardware is another issue. This will depend on two things: what do you want to use for the HMI (PC, HMI panel, etc) and what communication interface is available to communicate with the controller (Profibus, Modbus, etc.). The Siemens HMI software is called WinCC, and it is available in many different configurations. Without knowing what your specific hardware is, I would suggest you contact your local Siemens representative for help.

    Can we make a high performance HMI with Siemens WinCC? Because this kind of bar and trend is not available in the Siemens WinCC.

    • @realpars
      @realpars  3 роки тому

      The on-screen trend is in the Control menu in WinCC. The object is called WinCC FunctionTrendControl. You will have to go into the properties of this control object once placed on the screen to change colors, connect a tag to a trace, and set time ranges.

    Question. Does HMI design priciples or any other layout is based on ISO EN IEC standard?

    • @realpars
      @realpars  3 роки тому

      The standard described above is from ANSI/ISA101.01-2015. Currently, there is a working group within ISA and IEC working to create IEC 63303, which will become the European HMI standard. This will likely take another 2 years to complete, but when done, both ISA101 and IEC 63303 will provide automation engineers worldwide guidance on effective, high-performance HMI design.

      Yes. ISA 101 is the governing standard (www.isa.org/products/ansi-isa-101-01-2015-human-machine-interfaces-for). Here is a good (free) summary of the standard: www.idc-online.com/technical_references/pdfs/electronic_engineering/The_high_performance.pdf. And here is a good reference for the practical application of the standard (worth the money if you are designing HMI systems): (www.amazon.com/High-Performance-HMI-Handbook/dp/0977896919).

  • @АртемНаумов-с4ь
    @АртемНаумов-с4ь 3 роки тому

    This topic is very relevant and interesting, but in reality everything is different. Usually, the customer (factory/plant) already has its own requirements for HMI, and they are certainly far from high performance. Therefore, no matter how much you, as an automation engineer, would like to make it better and more modern, you are forced to fulfill the project design. I have been working as an automated control system engineer with Yokogawa equipment for 15 years, I really like to create HMI, but my hands are tied in almost every project. There is no freedom of creativity and the ability to make interfaces better, at least in Russia.
