Parameters in Performance Insight

Parameters are the variables available in the app and the KPIs created at the asset.

The variables that are available on each asset were transferred from the plant to the platform via the Asset Manager. In SIMATIC Performance Insight, My Plant with all existing variables is mapped on this basis.

The name, data type, and unit of each variable are transferred from the platform.

You can display the list of available parameters for each asset and define settings and limit values for individual parameters.
