Sometimes the material IO icons don't really have a good icon to represent a screen or other SCADA page.
I'm thinking about making a SCADA icons library. I figured I'd reach out to the community for suggestions of icons that would be good to have for Ignition Perspective projects.
In the past I have made icons for a municipal water storage tank, valves and pumps. I would probably also have icons for things like clarifier basins, oxidation ditches, aeration, etc.
I'm looking for more ideas to justify making an Icon library.
Fans
3 way valves
Flow Meters: Endress Hauser style, MicroMotion style etc.
Various sensors: Flow, Plug, Zero Speed, etc.
That is off the top of my head, if you look in the old symbol factory module addon you can get a general idea of what is needed for icons.
Maybe some generic manufacturing process icons: welding, pressing, machining, cutting, etc.
(Super generic) machine icons: robotic arm ... drawing a blank here
We also use SCADA to monitor building utilities/consumables but we had to get a bit creative in using material icons to represent a gas cylinder and the like, so generic utility icons may also be nice.
Good ideas.
I'm saving a link to this ideas thread. I might have spare time on evenings at ICC to work on it.
