V3, power and convenience

If you’re familiar with CX-Supervisor, then like many

automation professionals, you probably love its

ease-of-use, its full visualisation, its instant

overviews, and its advanced functionality – the type

you only expect from much more expensive

packages.

Now, prepare yourself for the new CX-Supervisor V3.

It’s more powerful, more convenient and

more versatile than ever – take a look at how you

can benefit:

Easier, faster fine-tuning

The new data log viewer allows you to quickly and
easily compare the process parameters of one week
against those of another – enabling you to identify
which settings work best.

Extended graphics library

It now supports “Smart Graphics” with embedded
animations. In addition you can easily create your
own objects so your virtual machine looks just like
the yet-to-be-built one.

One-click simulation

Spectacular, instant simulations that test your
applications with a single click of a mouse.

Remote maintenance

See the exact status of your application from anywhere
in the world – without modifying your application.
Simply use your web browser to securely access your
application and monitor its status.

Plus all the functionality you’ve enjoyed so far

Complete project overview on screen: the workspace
window (fully dockable) gives you a complete overview
of your project. Clicking on a page in the main view
shows all objects and animations on that page. You can
also see all the alarms, recipes, logging and database
connections.

Page editor: shows project pages and lets you create
new pages. Simply adjust the zoom for intricate HMIs.

Point editor: lists all project points, which can easily be
imported from other CX applications. Enables easy and
direct reuse of symbols used in CX-Programmer.

Alarm editor: lets you set and visualise process alarm
conditions. Automatic alarm acknowledgement and
audible warning are selectable.

Animation editor: serves the wide range of animations
supported to visualise changing process parameters.

Recipe editor: recipes are often linked to batches of
production. So, use of the editor means you can easily
download a new recipe to start a new batch.

Continuous performance improvement

Analyse at a glance

The improved data log viewer gives you the best way yet
to continuously fine-tune your machine and optimise its
performance, all in a simple visual way. You can overlay
one week on top of another, and identify anomalies at a
glance. You can compare one week against another or
one month against another, no more guess work, just
quick and easy identification of what works best.

With a brand new data table, created by bringing
the vertical and horizontal cursors together, you can
analyse your machine’s performance in minutes.
Reporting is also easier: now you can export data as an
image, CSV or directly to a printer.

Stay in touch at all times

With remote maintenance via the web you can check
your application’s status from anywhere in the world.
Simply log on to see and set values, check the alarm
log and acknowledge/clear alarms. Any errors in the
past week? See it all while your project is running.

Proven run-time benets

Health check during run-time

You can view the ‘Health Checker’ at runtime to
monitor each part of your system and protect against
overloading. In conjunction with the ‘Application
Analysis’ tool, you can tune your application for
optimum performance and maximum reliability.

Choice of language

CX-Supervisor V3 supports sixteen dierent European
languages, and you can select and change them
even while an application is running. Moreover, the
runtime environment is fully extendable to support any
language using text files.

Advanced data retrieval and storage

You can gather and store machine data for process
analysis from any database. CX-Supervisor also has
its own data logging function, including the newly
improved data-log viewer.

Run-time

New data logging. Remote connectivity with the screen.

COMPLETE COMPATI BIL ITY

Designed specifically for PC-based machine
visualisation, CX-Supervisor V3 is perfect for any PC
including Omron’s robust and high-quality DyaloX
purpose-built IPC.

Naturally, CX-Supervisor V3 communicates with
a whole range of cutting-edge (as well as older)
devices, including Omron’s entire range of PLCs,
motion devices, temperature controllers and sensors.
Moreover, future compatibility with new devices is
assured with Omron’s ‘One Connection’ Smart Platform
architecture.

For complete multivendor compatibility, CX-Supervisor
V3 is an OPC client enabling easy communication
whatever devices you have in your machine. This
means that CX-Supervisor V3 enhances the ‘One
Connection’ architecture beyond even Omron. In this
way CX-Supervisor V3 extends our ‘One Connection’
strategy to a multivendor world.

Choose your way of working

CX-Supervisor V3 is highly flexible and will perfectly
fit to your way of working. For example, you can
choose which Omron PLCs you want to work with: it’s
compatible with the CS and CJ ranges, the C series and
even the CV series, as well as Omron’s Trajexia motion
devices, ZX and ZS sensors and CelciuX° temperature
controllers. And more drivers are continuously being
added for registered users.

You can also choose which scripting language you use.
CX-Supervisor V3 supports several, including VBScript®
and Omron’s own language, which enables you to
interact with graphical elements on a page, read/write
data and send FINS commands to Omron devices.

Omron believes in and fully supports open
technologies, so you are guaranteed the freedom to
choose devices that best suit your machine or system.
As a member of the OPC Foundation, Omron also
supports open connectivity via open standards.

A choice of two versions

This is the perfect choice for almost all machine
visualisation requirements. Supporting connection of
up to 15 devices and up to 500 user-defined points,
it is flexible and powerful enough for the control
and supervision of a complete machine or an entire
manufacturing process. And its easy-to-use Windows®
Explorer-style development environment makes simple
work of building even the most advanced graphic
interfaces.

Product selector

Indicator Description Product Code

The Plus version is for those exceptional cases where
an application demands a higher number of devices
or points than can be handled by CX-Supervisor V3
Machine Edition. It otherwise shares all of the same
power and features.

Benets for developers

Faster simulation – faster prototypes

CX-Supervisor has always given you fast and easy
simulation of HMI and PLC applications, but now with
the improved CX-Supervisor V3’s integrated simulation
you can do them both on one screen – and, with just
one click of the mouse.

New graphics library

CX-Supervisor V3 supports “Smart Graphics” with
embedded animations. There’s also a new “Point
Substitution” feature for easy object connection. Since
you can now create your own objects, your virtual machine
looks just like a real one. While the included CX-Designer
graphics library helps ensure that your HMI and IPC
applications always have a consistent look and feel.

Improved picture handling

The new CX-Supervisor V3 supports JPEG and GIF
images and transparency – so you can layer images and
create perfect pictures.
