InduSoft has released the first service pack for its SCADA software InduSoft Web Studio v7.1. The service pack adds multitouch development capabilities for touch-screen enabled devices.
Unlike traditional touch-screen designs, multitouch systems can recognise the position of several touch contacts and finger movements (gestures) at the same time. Without a keyboard or pointing device, users can navigate screens and issue commands for an entire system.
Training time is reduced because many gestures, like zoom and pan, function in the same way as they do for smartphones and tablet devices. Besides lowering training time, multitouch technology provides much faster execution of commands. The average multitouch-screen users finish an action three times faster than they would by using a keyboard and pointing device.
Above all, multitouch capability can improve safety. Certain actions may require operators to keep their hands away from a machine; the multitouch screen can be configured to require users to have both hands on the screen before the command can be executed.
In addition to multitouch development capabilities, the version also offers an enhanced mobile access client and new language interfaces, including Spanish, for the development environment.
