Operator
Interface Operator's
performance improves dramatically when they are equipped with functional
tools for process set-up, process monitoring, and diagnostics. The layout
of screens and the organization of data being displayed play a key roll in
making the operator interaction with process effective. Intuitive navigation
between
screens and consistent methods of displaying large amount of data in
an organized manner facilitates quick training and familiarization with the
process. Selecting
the right colors to display process equipment, operating status, parameter's
animation and numerical data adds an important dimension to the definition,
"user friendly interface". Extensive
use of touch-screens permit minimization of control consoles and reduction
of hardwired devices. To maintain a "feel" for manual manipulation
of
equipment, multiplexed Joy-Sticks are available to the operator. Quad
Automation has an extensive knowledge and experience in developing user operator interfaces.
We listen to the operators and get them involved in defining the fine
points of operator's control environment. Effective control interface leads to
higher product quality and increased production.
