Introduction
Advantech WebAccess is a 100% web-based SCADA software solution that also serves as an IIoT platform by providing open interfaces for developing IoT applications aimed at
various vertical markets. WebAccess also acts as a gateway by collecting substantial amounts of data from ground equipment and transferring this data to cloud applications via the
MQTT protocol in the Publish/Subscribe pattern. In addition to traditional SCADA functions, WebAccess features an intelligent dashboard to facilitate cross-platform, cross-browser
data analysis and provide a user interface based on HTML5 technology.
The basic components of WebAccess are as follows:
1. Project Node: This is the project development platform that also acts as a web server for all clients to connect to development projects, facilitating remote monitoring and system
control. All system configuration settings, project database files, and graphics are stored in the project node.
2. SCADA Node: This node enables real-time communication with automation equipment as well as equipment control via serial, Ethernet, or proprietary communication protocols
using the various built-in device drivers. The SCADA node not only allows local control and monitoring, but also provides real-time data to all remote clients.
3. ViewDAQ Client: Through Microsoft Internet Explorer's ActiveX control, ViewDAQ Client monitors and controls the SCADA node. Clients must first connect to the project node to
obtain the address of the SCADA node before communicating directly with the SCADA node using proprietary communication protocols over a TCP/IP connection. Data is displayed
in real time as dynamically animated graphics and presented along with real-time historical trends and alarm information. The ViewDAQ Client can be used to acknowledge alarms
and change set-point and status data, as well as other information.
4. Dashboard Client: This enables users to access the dashboard server through any browser on any platform, such as a computer, pad, or smartphone equipped with iOS, Android,
or Windows.
Feature Details
Supports Private/Hybrid Cloud Architecture
WebAccess is a 100% web-based HMI and SCADA software with private/hybrid cloud
architecture. WebAccess provides large equipment vendors, SIs, and enterprises with
the ability to access and manipulate centralized data and to configure, change/update,
or monitor equipment, projects, and systems all over the world using a standard web
browser. For WebAccess/Cloud applications, WebAccess also acts as a gateway, collecting
substantial amounts of data from ground equipment and providing this data to cloud
applications using the MQTT protocol. MQTT is an extremely lightweight Publish/
Subscribe messaging transport protocol for M2M/IoT connectivity.
Open Interface
WebAccess offers three types of interfaces, including RESTful API and SignalR, for
various uses. First, WebAccess provides a web service interface for partners to integrate
WebAccess data into apps or application systems. Second, a pluggable widget interface
is opened for programmers to develop widgets and run WebAccess Dashboard. Finally,
WebAccess opens WebAccess API, which is a DLL interface for programmers to access the
WebAccess platform and develop Windows applications. By supporting these interfaces,
WebAccess serves as a platform for developing IoT applications in various vertical markets.
Integrated with WebAccess/IVS
WebAccess is integrated with WebAccess/IVS to provide a comprehensive video
management solution that supports real-time monitoring and video playback. With
this intelligent video surveillance system, events can be displayed as alarms and video
playback performed accordingly.
Business Intelligence Dashboard
WebAccess provides an HTML5-based dashboard as the next generation of WebAccess
HMI. SIs can use the dashboard editor to create custom information page featuring analysis
charts and diagram widgets. The built-in widget library contains numerous widgets, such
as trends, bars, alarm summary, and map widgets, and the included Widget Builder can
be used to create unique widgets. Once dashboard screens are created, end users can use
the dashboard viewer to access data from various devices, including PCs, Macs, tablets,
and smartphones, via various browsers, such as Explorer, Safari, Chrome, and Firefox,
for a truly convenient viewing experience.
Integrated with WebAccess/NMS
WebAccess/NMS is a network device management system based on HTML5. WebAccess
can be easily integrated with a web interface. Additionally, with WebAccess graphics,
users can search the event logs and monitor the real-time status of network devices via
the network topology.
Widget Builder
Widget Builder is a widget development tool based on HTML5 and featuring an intuitive
UI. Users can edit widgets remotely from any location using any browser and at any time.
Widget Builder provides users with various design tools for creating widget components
and drawing shapes and objects with a wide range of animations. Additionally, all widgets
can be easily imported and exported for reuse.
Integrated with WISE-PaaS/RMM
Previously, WebAccess only supported sensor and device monitoring. Now, with the
integration of WISE-PaaS/RMM, WebAccess also supports monitoring of the equipment
and platform status, such as the CPU temperature, CPU usage, and board temperature,
thereby enabling remote equipment monitoring.

Advantech WebAccess
Integrates Google Maps and GPS Tracking
WebAccess integrates real-time data of each geographical site with Google Maps and
GPS location tracking. Regarding remote monitoring, users can remotely view the
building energy consumption, field production rate, highway traffic flow, and alarm
status information. By right-clicking on Google Maps or entering the coordinates of the
target location, users can create a marker for the target and associate the real-time data
of three sites with a display label. Furthermore, this function can be integrated with GPS
modules to track the marker location in Google Maps, enabling the data to be shared
with relevant vehicle systems.
Automated Excel Reports
WebAccess provides Excel reports to fulfil demands for self-defined reporting capabilities.
Users can build self-defined Excel templates and generate on-demand or daily/weekly/
monthly/yearly Microsoft Excel reports automatically. Additionally, the Excel report
function is web-based, which means Excel reports can be generated and accessed via a
web browser from any location.
Open Data Connectivity
Advantech WebAccess supports OPC UA/DA, DDE, Modbus, and BACnet Server/Client
for real-time online data exchanges with third-party software, as well as MS SQL, Oracle,
MySQL, and MS Access for offline data sharing.
WebAccess Express - The Auto-Configuration Tool
Advantech’s WebAccess Express is an automated graphical remote control application
program for making device information available online with a single click. WebAccess
Express automatically discovers the ADAM and EKI modules connected to the network and
serial ports, generates a database, and uploads real-time data with pre-built monitoring
graphics. WebAccess Express also supports remote monitoring functions by allowing users
to communicate and exchange data with SNMP, DiagAnywhere Server, or SUSI 4.0 APIs,
and to check the CPU health, memory, temperature, and voltage of target machines. By
integrating SNMP, DiagAnywhere, and SUSI API drivers, users can configure WebAccess
to emit an alarm if any abnormal or suspicious data is detected.
Real-Time Database
WebAccess Real-Time Database (RTDB) is designed to meet industrial-level demands for
high speeds and large quantity data access. The RTDB’s fully integrated design means
users do not need to learn how to operate this database. Just by enabling RTDB use on the
WebAccess configuration page, the WebAccess SCADA node can conduct data processing
(simultaneous collection and retrieval) at a rate of millions of records per second. Moreover,
the RTDB maintenance feature automatically archives and deletes obsolete data.
Multiple Driver Support
WebAccess can support hundreds of devices. In addition to Advantech I/Os and controllers,
WebAccess supports all major PLCs, controllers, and I/Os, such as those by Allen
Bradley, Siemens, LonWorks, Mitsubushi, Beckhoff, and Yokogawa. For vertical market
applications, WebAccess supports the DNP 3.0 protocol developed for the power and
energy industry. WebAccess also supports standard protocols such as Modbus, OPC DA,
and OPC UA, and can be easily integrated with other SCADA software. All of these device
drivers are integrated into WebAccess and provided free of charge. For a complete list of
WebAccess drivers, refer to webaccess.advantech.com.
Multi-Touch Gesture Support
WebAccess supports multi-touch operation and various pre-set gestures, such as flick
to turn page and zoom in/out, as well as two-handed operation. This more intuitive
handling style maximizes operating safety, increases usability, and reduces training time.
Furthermore, WebAccess also supports the use of multi-point tap/grab/spread gestures
to initiate pre-defined actions.
Redundant SCADA, COM Ports, and Devices
Advantech’s WebAccess ensures continuous reliable communication to automation
equipment. The WebAccess backup node activates when the primary node is down.
WebAccess device drivers communicate with backup ports and devices if the primary
connection is lost and automatically restore to the primary item when it becomes available.
