Transform Any Screen Into An IIoT-Capable HMI
Skip the supply chain shortages and rising prices of new HMI hardware and network edge devices. With Ignition Edge Panel, you can easily add HMI functionality to any panel PC to control processes and view real-time data at the edge. Edge Panel is software you can install directly on a device to quickly develop a robust HMI solution that connects and transmits data to an MQTT broker or other data sources or applications.

Edge Panel includes powerful development tools for creating your own HMI screens. Its suite of drivers enables fast connections to any industrial device and its built-in designer allows you to create completely custom dashboards. Choose between Perspective (2 sessions) or Vision (one local and one remote client) as your visualization system, and build future-proof Industry 4.0-compatible local control systems.
Capture & Transmit Field Data To An MQTT Server
Because it includes all the features and functionality of our Edge IIoT solution, Edge Panel makes it easy and affordable to capture and distribute critical field data at the edge of your network. Set up an infrastructure of secure message-oriented data processing using the publish-and-subscribe MQTT protocol. Then bridge remote device data with the plant floor, and publish it to an MQTT server or other widely accessible endpoint.
Secure a Good Fallback (Local-Client) Plan
You can stop living in fear of the dreaded failed network connection. This comprehensive edge computing solution re-targets from a central Ignition server to maintain local data visualization and control. With Edge Panel, you can buffer 35 days’ worth of data and use store-and-forward practices.
Ignition Edge Panel Architectures
Ignition's server-centric web-based deployment model enables you to build flexible architectures that easily scale up or down to match your growth needs. Boost HMI functionality at the edge and transmit data without adding new equipment using Ignition Edge Panel.
Standalone HMI
Use Ignition Edge Panel to create a standalone HMI at the edge of the network.
Hub-and-Spoke with Local Client Fallback
Ignition Edge Panel adds local client fallback to a hub-and-spoke architecture. Edge Panel provides visualization at the edge, a 35 day data buffer to cache PLC data while a network connection is down, and store and forward functionality for when the connection is restored.
One Solution — Multiple Edge Capabilities
Unlimited Tags & Devices
Includes unlimited tags and device connections for included drivers, and acts as an OPC UA server so it can connect with most PLCs.
Cross-Platform Compatible
Works seamlessly with most computing platforms and can run on virtually any edge device.
Transmit & Synchronize Data
Able to transmit data to any MQTT broker using the Sparkplug specification and acts as a limited remote server that synchronizes data.
Remote Synchronization
Acts as a limited remote server that synchronizes data from the edge to a central Ignition server.
Remote EAM Agent Gateway
Acts as a remote EAM Agent Gateway at the edge, working with a central Ignition server that has the Enterprise Administration Module (EAM).
