Control room

Floor plan, 3D live view of the workshop and hall monitor.

  1. The control room: your workshop as a floor plan and 3D scene

    What the control room shows, its three views, who may do what and where to start setting it up.

  2. Setting up the control room: first hall and industry template

    Create a hall, load an industry template and decide in the preview what is reused and what is created.

  3. Drawing the floor plan: rooms, walls, gates

    The editor tools, why office, break room and gate are more than drawing, keyboard shortcuts and how automatic saving works.

  4. Placing stations and workplaces: palette, storage, properties

    How machines, workbenches and areas get into the hall, what storage is and why "Remove from layout" deletes nothing.

  5. Restoring earlier versions of the floor plan

    Every saved change is kept as a version. How to bring back an older floor plan without overwriting anything.

  6. Reading the live view: colors, labels, figures

    What corner marks, workpieces, folder stacks, figures, zones and warnings mean in the 3D scene of the control room.

  7. Operating the 3D scene: selection, camera, list, full screen

    Rotate, zoom, search and select orders, use the list and key figures — and what graphics level, presentation and full screen do.

  8. Now, later today, tomorrow: viewing the planned state in the control room

    What the time switch of the live view shows: "Now" is the actual state, "Later today" and "Tomorrow" are the planned state from the position dates.

  9. Station, order, person: what the cards in the control room show

    The card after a click in the live view: problems with a way to fix them, key figures, timeline, weekly load, order progress and delivery date.

  10. Stock and missing parts in the control room

    A click on the material storage in the hall shows stock, open demand, ordered and missing material — quantities only, no prices.

  11. Why is my hall empty? The data the control room needs

    The control room only shows what orders, master data, timers and the time clock already contain. A checklist of prerequisites and a table: what is missing, and why.

  12. People in the control room: who sees whom, and what the monitor shows

    Where the figures come from, which role sees which people and which personal data the workshop TV shows — for managers, employees and works councils.

  13. Showing the control room on the workshop TV

    Create a monitor link, set up the device at the TV and understand the messages on screen — the hall monitor runs without a sign-in.
