Emerson HMI/SCADA Software Adds Features to Optimize Connectivity, Development, and Run-Time Performance
Emerson Movicon.NExT v4.4 HMI/SCADA software updates core capabilities and provides new features, with connectivity, development, data management, and performance enhancements so end users, SIs, and OEMs can streamline the creation and deployment of solutions.

Emerson has announced the release of Movicon.NExT™ Version 4.4, a modern human-machine interface (HMI) and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) platform. Movicon.NExT HMI/SCADA empowers users to create interoperable automation architectures for discrete and process manufacturing applications in the commercial, industrial, and municipal/utility industries. This update delivers enhancements boosting functionality, performance, and flexibility, with an emphasis on user-centric improvements to maximize development efficiency.

Communications and Drivers
Updated industrial communication protocol drivers—for OPC UA, EtherNet/IP, and others—provide support for multi-station, advanced arrays, and more. A new DNP3 driver enables Movicon.NExT HMI/SCADA to integrate seamlessly with power industry and electrical utility networks. Optimized I/O operations more efficiently aggregate read/write tags for greater throughput, and open connectivity helps users easily connect with digital assets.

Scripting and Development
Native support within Movicon.NExT for Python runtime scripting enables custom, cross-platform logic, so developers can create sophisticated strategies while building on proven work. Updated user interfaces, new graphical properties for controls, and streamlined license management (both local and network-based) enhance and simplify the overall user experience, while accelerating project development.

Data Management
New support for TimescaleDB in the historian offers improved storage efficiency and higher performance, especially with large data volumes. Other enhancements increase data precision and SQL database compatibility, while recipe and alarm management are performed through a centralized connection. Movicon.NExT is built to meet the increasing demand for data to support visualization and analytics.

Security and Compliance
A full migration to .NET 8 for core Movicon.NExT applications, and unified and encrypted password management applied across the entire platform, are just two examples of built-in security to help users defend their digital systems and achieve regulatory compliance. CFR21 compliance has now been enhanced with the addition of user group information logged alongside usernames.

An Integration-Ready HMI/SCADA Platform
Additional Movicon.NExT modules, such as Pro.Lean™ and Pro.Energy™, are also revised to v4.4, with updates such as an improved user interface and navigation, new library symbols, and the addition of grouping and overview screens.

The release of Movicon.NExT v4.4 strengthens this HMI/SCADA’s position as an open, high-performance, and integration-ready platform, while maintaining a focus on ease-of-use. Movicon.NExT is the foundation of a solid automation architecture, helping end users, systems integrators (SIs), and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) create innovative automation solutions.
