Super-Flash is a Development system for making industrial supervision (SCADA) and human-machine interfaces (HMI) applications.

The applications made using Super-Flash can be limited to monitoring the status of a plant or a machine, or it can go as far as including supervision and control functions, with the aim of "managing" production by means of a PC.

For further information on the software and on the other products in the Supervisione Libera line, the Brochure (lnformative Leaflet) can be downloaded.

Automa proposes two complementary sales formulas for its SCADA HMI package: Runtime and Royalty-Free.

	Development System licence	Application licence
Super-Flash Runtime	at zero cost	on payment
Super-Flash Royalty-Free	on payment	at zero cost

With Super-Flash Runtime, the development system is completely free of charge: you only buy the Runtime licences whose cost depends on the size, i.e. on the maximum number of variables and alarms. The product can be downloaded directly from this site on the FreeDownload page and you can start to use it. A Runtime licence, free of charge, will allow you to launch the application made in order to check its operation, for a maximum time of 15 minutes. Following its development, to be able to install the application at the end customer's premises, it will be necessary to purchase a Runtime licence represented by a hardware or software key, sized (number of variables and alarms) according to needs.
The MicroC Runtime compiler is included in the supply. You will therefore have two types of licence available, according to the tools used to create the application: Super-Flash licence or Super-Flash + MicroC licence.

The Runtime licences are provided with a protection device to be chosen among:

• Software activation Code
• USB key
• Key with 512 Mbyte, 1 Gbyte or 2 Gbyte Pen Drive

With Super-Flash ROYALTY-FREE you purchase a development system and there are no Royalties on individual applications. This choice foresees purchasing true "producer goods". The investment must be spread over a certain number of applications. Those who choose the ROYALTY-FREE formula purchase a specific version of the development system. It is possible to subscribe to an annual updating service which allows the customer to ensure they get the new versions issued by Automa. The Super-Flash ROYALTY-FREE licences also include MicroC, the C language compiler, which extends the potential of the Development system by 360°, and they are supplied with different costs depending on the size, i.e. on the maximum number of variables and alarms which can be managed.

The licences are provided with a USB protection device which also incorporates a 2 GByte Pen Drive.
