This paper provides an overview of AVEVA Intouch (formerly Wonderware Intouch), a leading Human-Machine Interface (HMI) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) software. It discusses the software’s historical evolution, system architecture, core functionalities, and its role in modern industrial automation. The paper highlights key features such as visualization, alarm management, historical trending, and scripting, along with integration capabilities for Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES). A case study in a water treatment facility illustrates practical deployment benefits.
Effective alarm management is crucial for safety. InTouch provides a distributed alarm model.
The development environment, known as , uses a drag-and-drop approach. You don't need to be a professional C++ coder to build a functional HMI. With a bit of training on "InTouch QuickScript," even novice users can create complex logic and animations. Scalability
