The ability to create graphics and tie their animation to changing BASEstar realtime data makes data meaningful to the user in a way never before possible. With the BGE, pictures, graphs, icons, input boxes, and a host of other graphical entities give visibility, animation, and access to the BASEstar data environment.
Users respond faster and more accurately to graphical models than to numbers or text.
BGE transports the BASEstar realtime data environment into a data application. By driving the animation, the full power of the ever-changing BASEstar data environment is made available to the application. More importantly, the BASEstar Graphics Enabler provides developers with a powerful tool to develop low-cost graphical applications that can display or react to manufacturing data and events as they happen. The combination of BASEstar and BASEstar Graphics Enabler software lets users issue and receive critical production and machine data throughout the plant in an easily interpreted graphical format. Graphical models connected to BASEstar logical points provide productivity gains for manufacturing personnel by enabling faster response to plant-floor information.
