Overview
Learn how to use the Pop Up Genie feature in AVEVA Plant SCADA. This step-by-step micro-tutorial shows how to trigger contextual pop-ups (faceplates, setpoints, trends, and alarms) so operators can act fast without leaving the main process screen.
Why This Matters
- Fewer clicks, faster actions: Bring detailed controls and info to operators at the point of need.
- Consistent UX: Standardized pop-ups improve usability across projects.
- Safer operations: Keep situational awareness by avoiding full screen changes during critical tasks.
Tips: Where to Apply Pop Up Genie
- Equipment faceplates: Tap a pump/valve icon to open detailed status and Start/Stop/Mode controls.
- Setpoint adjustments: Open a compact numeric entry pop-up for PID setpoints or limits.
- Alarm handling: Launch a pop-up from the alarm banner/list to acknowledge, view cause, and jump to related controls.
- Quick trends: Show a small trend window tied to the selected tag for rapid diagnostics.
- Operator guidance: Display SOP/help snippets for rare procedures without leaving the overview.
- Confirmation flows: For high-impact actions (CIP start, E-stop reset), require a confirm pop-up.
