Five essential criteria for effective mobile HMIs 有效手机HMI的五个基本标准

Mobile human-machine interface (HMI) strategies should consider security, ease of use, level of access and detail, and collaboration when bringing HMI interfaces from the control room to the plant floor.

Placing process control information on mobile devices for engineers, operators, managers, or maintenance technicians is becoming a necessity to enable digital transformation and elevate the performance, productivity, and safety of facility operations. Creating an effective mobile strategy is critical to the success of projects and operations to help balance the need for flexible access to operations technology (OT) information with information technology (IT) safety and security requirements.
An effective mobile human-machine interface (HMI) strategy evaluates how to bring HMI interfaces from the control room to the plant via web browsers on phones, tablets, or rugged laptops.
When developing an effective mobile HMI strategy, consider the five criteria below.
1. Native integration
Native integration means less engineering work because the process control systems and mobile technologies are designed to share and securely transfer information without requiring duplication of the system configuration.
2. Remote operator stations
Remote operator stations extend (full or limited) control outside of the control room, to the plant floor, and beyond. This interface can be a full-featured tablet or hardened laptop that gives a full view and defined control to a team member. It resides on the control network or the demilitarized zone to give a mobile team member the same power and visibility as an operator in the control room.

3. HTML5 mobile-ready HMI An HTML5 mobile-ready HMI is an HMI display built on HTML5 technology and is thereby accessible on mobile devices and computers, without needing to duplicate the display configuration on the mobile platform. It provides display portability and ease of use to a facility’s HMI plan by showing control room displays on a web browser. This enables personnel to see the same data and graphics securely as operators in a facility remotely, which can help ease collaboration between control room personnel and by remote personnel.
4. Mobile applications
With tailorable, view-only data access, mobile applications are broadly used as secure technologies designed to encourage personnel to remain informed and engaged regardless of location. Whether a remote operator workstation, an HTML5 mobile-ready HMI, or a native mobile application, these solutions can be securely and easily integrated into daily processes and work practices, to yield the desired productivity, performance, and safety improvements.
5.  Consider total cost of ownership
While many technologies provide potential solutions, the ideal solution offers a strong lifecycle value that balances easy, low-cost upfront implementation with security and minimal long-term engineering. The success of this strategy depends on choosing a solution that matches OT and IT strategies and that personnel can incorporate to daily operations.  

移动人机界面（HMI）策略应考虑安全性，易用性，访问级别和细节，以及将HMI接口从控制室引入工厂车间时的协作。

在工程师，操作员，管理人员或维护技术人员的移动设备上放置过程控制信息正成为实现数字化转型和提高设施运营的性能，生产率和安全性的必要条件。创建有效的移动战略对于项目和运营的成功至关重要，以帮助平衡灵活访问运营技术（OT）信息与信息技术（IT）安全和安全要求的需求。
有效的移动人机界面（HMI）策略评估如何通过手机，平板电脑或坚固耐用的笔记本电脑上的Web浏览器将HMI接口从控制室带到工厂。
在制定有效的移动HMI策略时，请考虑以下五个标准。
1.原生整合
本地集成意味着更少的工程工作，因为过程控制系统和移动技术旨在共享和安全地传输信息，而无需重复系统配置。
2.远程操作员站
远程操作员站在控制室外，工厂车间以及更远处扩展（全部或有限）控制。此界面可以是功能齐全的平板电脑或硬化笔记本电脑，可为团队成员提供完整视图和定义控制。它位于控制网络或非军事区域，为移动团队成员提供与控制室中的操作员相同的功率和可视性。

3. HTML5移动就绪HMI HTML5移动就绪HMI是一种基于HTML5技术的HMI显示器，因此可以在移动设备和计算机上访问，而无需在移动平台上复制显示配置。它通过在Web浏览器上显示控制室显示，为设施的HMI计划提供显示便携性和易用性。这使得人员能够远程查看与设施中的操作员相同的数据和图形，这有助于简化控制室人员和远程人员之间的协作。
4.移动应用程序
通过可定制的仅查看数据访问，移动应用程序被广泛用作安全技术，旨在鼓励人员在不论位置的情况下保持信息和参与。无论是远程操作员工作站，HTML5移动就绪HMI还是原生移动应用程序，这些解决方案都可以安全，轻松地集成到日常流程和工作实践中，从而实现所需的生产力，性能和安全性改进。
5.考虑总拥有成本
虽然许多技术提供了潜在的解决方案，但理想的解决方案提供了强大的生命周期价值，可以在简单，低成本的前期实施与安全性和最小化的长期工程之间取得平衡。该战略的成功取决于选择符合OT和IT战略的解决方案，以及人员可以融入日常运营。
