Unified vs Zoo Browser

This app allows hosting different HMIs to monitor and control a plant or machine. You can create the HMIs with the Unified-E App Designer and publish them on the Unified-E App Manager. Unified-E is a software product which is used to operate machines or plants with a smartphone. App development time is drastically reduced by using the "Unified-E App Designer" software, where you can define both the HMI views and push notifications for your individual HMI app. No app programming knowledge is required. There is a Gateway PC required which connects smartphone with machine and ensures that communication is secured and only granted for authorized users. The "Pro" license also allows operating a machine via the Internet without performing any configuration on the firewall or router. By now there are already multiple Unified-E endpoint adapters, e. g. for the S7-, ControlLogix-, Modbus- or OPC UA interface. The software, user manuals, licenses and further information can be found on the website ww.unified-e.com. For developers and integrators all licenses are for free.

Zoo Browser is a configurable, “locked down” browser that is designed for kiosk environments such as libraries, trade shows, and museum exhibits. Features include: • Restrict which web sites can be visited based on the web page’s location (URL) or host. • Setup mode may be used to easily add allowed sites. • Settings for home page, title, idle reset time, screen dimming, and more. • No watermark or other “trialware” limitations. Please Note: To prevent users from exiting Zoo Browser, you should enable iOS’ Guided Access feature. Learn more in the Zoo Browser settings.
