Solving the Visibility Problem in Manufacturing with Prodigy SCADA

The Hidden Cost of Operating in the Dark

In manufacturing, a problem can escalate in seconds - but too often, the signs were there minutes earlier. A machine overheats. A process drifts out of spec. An alarm goes unnoticed. The result? Wasted materials, missed targets, or worse: unplanned downtime…

It’s not that operators aren’t skilled. It’s that they’re not always informed in real time.

Despite advances in automation, many manufacturers still rely on outdated monitoring systems, scattered data, or delayed feedback loops. And in environments where margins are tight and efficiency is everything, that’s no longer sustainable.

The Real-Time Advantage: From Guesswork to Instant Insight

This is where real-time monitoring and control becomes a game-changer. With a system that gives you a live window into every part of your operation, your team can spot issues before they become problems, respond faster, and fine-tune performance with confidence.

And that’s exactly what Prodigy SCADA is designed to do.

Prodigy SCADA: Real-Time at Its Core

Prodigy’s architecture is built for speed, stability, and visibility. At its heart is a client-server system powered by a real-time signal database that constantly monitors and updates process values - every signal, every second.

With Prodigy, users can:

✅ Instantly view live data from sensors, machines, and control systems

✅ Adjust parameters and issue commands on the fly

✅ Monitor alarms, trends, and process status across the site

✅ Log every action for traceability and compliance

And all of this is presented through intuitive, customisable operator displays that are easy to navigate - even under pressure.

Full Control Without Leaving Your Screen

Need to change a setpoint? Acknowledge an alarm? Stop or start a process? It’s all possible from the same unified interface - whether you're at the plant or accessing remotely via SmartView, Prodigy’s HTML5 web interface.

No switching systems. No delays. Just clear, confident control.

Beyond Data: Prodigy Powers Better Decisions

More than just a visualisation tool, Prodigy connects real-time data with deeper features that help teams work smarter:

🚨 Intelligent alarm handling to escalate what matters

📁 Historical data logging for audits and improvement

🧩 Integration with third-party systems (via OPC, SQL, Modbus, and more)

“We used to react to problems. Now we prevent them because Prodigy gives us the full picture in real-time.”
