Machine visibility

What is the difference between an MDC shop-floor screen and a conventional dashboard?

Direct answer

A shop-floor screen can place machine objects on a visual plant layout and show live status in physical context. A dashboard or live screen is usually organized around metrics, lists, trends, or exceptions. Both can use the same underlying events, but they answer different questions: where activity is happening versus how performance is changing.

Practical checkpoint

Choose the display type from the decision viewers must make in a few seconds, not from which graphic looks more impressive.
