Anybus Virtual Attributes Manager — by HMS Industrial Networks
Anybus Virtual Attributes Manager is a configuration and governance tool that helps you standardize, enrich, and control the data flowing through Anybus-enabled devices and gateways. It lets you define “virtual attributes” — named, typed, and documented data points that can represent raw signals, calculated values, or aggregated tags — so you can enforce consistent semantics, apply lightweight transformations, and present clean, well-structured data to PLCs, HMIs, SCADA/MES, and IT/cloud applications.
Key capabilities:
- Data modeling: Define attribute names, types, units, ranges, and descriptions to create a clear, consistent data layer.
- Mapping and transformation: Bind attributes to underlying device signals and apply scaling, offsets, simple calculations, and aggregation.
- Organization and reuse: Group attributes into profiles or templates for faster commissioning and easy replication across projects.
- Governance and security: Set read/write permissions, apply validation rules, and track changes for auditability.
- Deployment and synchronization: Publish configurations to Anybus gateways/devices, perform bulk updates, and import/export for versioning.
- Integration-ready: Expose attributes through the standard interfaces supported by your Anybus products, minimizing custom code.
- Commissioning and diagnostics: Simulate values, monitor live data, and troubleshoot mappings with status indicators.
Typical use cases:
- Normalize heterogeneous device data across multi-vendor networks.
- Decouple data modeling from PLC logic to simplify maintenance.
- Prepare OT data for analytics, reporting, and enterprise integration.
Benefits:
- Faster commissioning, cleaner data models, and easier scalability across assets, lines, and sites.
