Due to concerns regarding data integrity and potential impact on their process and reputation, the Town of Clifton Park, NY Water Authority decided to replace their old software. The legacy software had issues with intermittent communications and trend archiving, posing a risk to the highly regulated drinking water treatment process.
Thank for you for joining us at WATERCON!

Water & Wastewater Case Studies
Case Study | Water Apps | Water and Wastewater
Modern water treatment facilities can operate sophisticated and sometimes very costly water and wastewater networks and sewage treatment plants, which are usually run by a public utility organization or municipality.
Case Study | Lincoln Water District | Water
Lincoln Water, located in Maine, was in need of upgrading their legacy National Instruments data collection system and were looking for a modern platform to sustain their systems for the future.
Case Study | Water Irrigation
Irrigation Automation Company needed a way to visualize and control real-time data to improve efficiency and performance of pivots out in the field, while allowing farmers the ability to communicate via a mobile device, iPad or iPhone. They searched for a complete software package that provided the necessary connectivity, communications, report generation, and graphic displays all-in-one.
FrameworX Integrated Elements
FrameworX integrated elements that enable the secure and efficient deployment of industrial applications such as: SCADA, HMI, IIoT, MES and others based on your needs. The built-in FactoryStudio® functionality includes
Real-Time Tags
Tags, Assets and Templates are the core components of the real-time data. FrameworX has a built-in real-time, event-driven, in-memory database, that manages the tags, assets and events in the application.
Databases and SQL
The Dataset Module provides an easy-to-use interface to any external Database or Process Historian (SQL Server, Oracle, Access, PI, etc), XML, CSV, or text files with access to SQL queries, tables and SPs. Native SQLite is included with FX installation.
Trend and SQL Historian
Log real-time to internal SQL or external databases, like SQL Server, MS Azure, or Oracle, or the built-in SQL. Advanced trend and visualization and annotation features. Combine Historian curves with any SQL database queries.
Scripts and .NET
You can create powerful C#, VB.NET, Python, and JavaScript code. The 100% .NET managed code makes us "intrinsically safe". Intellisense enables direct access objects, including Tags, Alarms, Databases and more.
Devices and Drivers
We include 60+ PLC and other protocols drivers to directly access data from PLCs, Remote IO, bar-codes, RFID and more. We have built-in OPC UA, Modbus and MQTT Client/Broker. And we have a toolkit for any driver.
Graphics Designer
Our Graphics Editor allows for easy creation of rich user interfaces with dynamic animations Resolution independence, isolation from the code, extensibility, and deployment to desktop, thin clients, web and mobile clients. Reusable Smart Symbols and Components.
Diagnostics and More
Tools to show status of running modules, log errors, get warnings and user defined messages, access runtime values and properties, enter simulated values, run in Test protect mode. Accelerate development, assist on startup, isolate, and diagnose.
Reporting and Data Access
Create dynamic reports with our Built-in Report Editor. Use Dynamic Symbols in Reports, save as Text, CSV, XPS, PDF. We also support Web-Services, XML and other data-exchange interfaces to provide data for external reporting tools
Alarms and Notification
Multiple alarm levels for each tag when logging, acknowledgement, displaying, etc. is pre-packaged to simplify the configuration. You can send notifications by email, SMS or voice. The Alarm Module with the Security Tools can provide what’s needed to create FDA 21 CFR Part 11 compliant applications.
Built-In SQL
Includes a full-featured embedded, encrypted SQL engine. Used as local historian with store/forward to any data source, process historians or SQL databases. Store runtime settings or data in tables for reports or display with our built-in DataGrid. Or integrate to any external .NET components.
Security and Redundancy
Dynamically change the project configuration, without stopping the runtime execution. Enable redundancy deployment with a simple check-box configuration. Automatically log project configuration changes, and manage project and product versions seamlessly.
Dashboard Builder
Design responsive dashboards easily with drag and drop panels to display Grids, Trend Charts, Pie Charts, Bar Charts, Gauges, or any Symbol/Custom Symbol. Create your dashboards for both .NET and HTML5 clients from the same engineering environment.
