QuickHMI Lynx (V14) – Web HMI SCADA Software

Visualize and control — easy with drag-and-drop

With QuickHMI Lynx (V14) you have access to the latest generation of our modern, powerful software platform.

Continuously developed since 2012 and used across industries, QuickHMI lets you create Web HMI/SCADA applications easily with drag-and-drop (with or without HTML knowledge).
Processes can be conveniently monitored and controlled, and data displayed in near real time. From small projects to complex industrial systems.

Built for professionals.
For commercial use, QuickHMI is available in two powerful editions: Standard and Ultimate. For private use, the Community Mode is also available (see Feature Overview).

No licensing traps.
No runtime license costs — really zero.
No tag limits in the commercial editions.

What does QuickHMI offer? A first overview.

QuickHMI is built on two core components: a graphical editor for designing web-based HMI and SCADA interfaces, and a runtime engine to execute them. The software serves to provide clear visualization of process data in the browser and to control plant operations.

The system combines everything that defines a solid HMI tool: a well-thought-out design concept for fast results, and the necessary technical depth when projects become more complex.

  • SVG-based Engineering: User interfaces are built using drag-and-drop with scalable vector graphics. HTML knowledge is not mandatory for the design process. However, for specific requirements, the logic of the elements can be extended at any time using custom HTML or JavaScript.
  • Platform-independent Runtime: The software adapts to your existing hardware infrastructure. The runtime can be operated natively under Windows and Linux, integrated as a Docker container, or executed directly on a Raspberry Pi for more compact projects.
  • Structuring through Templates: Recurring plant components do not require multiple drawings. By using faceplates (templates), you can create parameterizable templates with placeholders that are maintained centrally and can be reused as instances throughout the entire project.

Designing web user interfaces

Drag & drop — easily extensible.

Quickly create web HMI/SCADA interfaces using drag & drop.

Professional extensions possible: custom SVG controls, JavaScript, and individual integrations.

Cross-platform compatibility

Runtime for Windows & Linux.

You can create projects using the QuickHMI Editor under Windows.

The runtime runs cross-platform (Windows/Linux) – optionally also via Docker or on Raspberry Pi.

From design to runtime in one click

Design ↔ live test right away.

Switch between draft and runtime with a single click and test immediately.

Check changes, find errors earlier, iterate faster.

Modern design & usability

Faceplates, placeholders, live data.

Modern interface for a fast, clear workflow.

Faceplates/templates, placeholders, and live data in the editor support your daily work.

Security / User and access management

Roles, permissions, SSL/TLS.

Roles and permissions control access to functions and data.

Secure connections via SSL/TLS and our own certificates.

Browser, viewer & app — your corporate design

Browser, viewer, app – flexible.

Display in browser, QuickHMI Viewer, or via Android/iOS app.

Corporate design possible.

Note: Part of the Ultimate Edition.

S7, OPC UA, Modbus & Co. – is your protocol supported?

QuickHMI supports the most important industrial protocols and data sources – for direct connection of controllers, devices, and services.

  • Opc UA
  • Siemens S7 (absolute or symbolic addressable)
  • Modbus master and slave (TCP, RTU, RTU over TCP, ASCII, UDP)
  • TWINCAT 2 and TWINCAT 3

  • MQTT and sMQTT

  • Allen-Bradley
  • KNX/EIB
  • BACnet
  • Data from the file system
  • InfluxDB
  • Webservice
  • and many more.

If the protocol you require is not directly available, QuickHMI offers flexible alternatives:

  • Database interfaces: Get HMI data through your favorite database or log it there
  • Java API: Develop your own custom data source with our powerful API and tailor QuickHMI exactly to your requirements.

You can find the complete list of all implemented communication protocols in our data sheet.

Why pay extra for runtimes or tags?

With many HMI/SCADA systems, additional costs apply: per runtime, per web client, per device, or per day.
QuickHMI has taken a different approach since 2012: There are no additional license fees — you stay in full control.

Promised: Not a cent for runtime licenses — really zero.
No matter how many devices, clients, or systems: no additional runtime fees.

And one more promise: No tag limits in the commercial editions.
No buying tags later — no limits on tags (variables) or data sources.
