SCADA / HMI

Version 2026.20

Pricing

Connecting to your plant is included. You pay for what you do with it.

A $995 gateway talks to every device you own: all eight protocols, OPC UA as client and server, unlimited tags, devices and engineers, and no per-driver charge. Screens, reports and notifications are modules you add, and only concurrent operator clients are metered.

$995

Clients

What counts as a client

Concurrent Spectrum sessions. Nothing else is metered.

Counts
  • Spectrum in a browserYes, this is the operator seat
  • Spectrum on a phone or tabletYes, the same session on a smaller screen
  • Lens on a panelYes, a Spectrum session in a kiosk shell
Does not count
  • StudioFree and unlimited. Engineering seats are never metered
  • The configuration consoleAdministration, not operation
  • REST and WebSocket clientsYour own integrations are not charged for
Concurrent, not named

The count is how many operator screens are open at once, not how many people have logins. A plant with forty operators across three shifts and six terminals needs six clients, not forty.

A running screen is never dropped

If the limit is reached, the new session is refused and the message says which limit was hit and what the count is. An established operator screen is never terminated for a licensing reason.

Designers stay free

Every engineer who needs Studio gets it at no charge, on as many machines as they like. Paying per designer seat is a tax on the people building the system.

Included

What the gateway licence includes

Everything needed to talk to a plant. Screens, reports and notifications are modules.

Every driver

Allen-Bradley, Siemens S7, Modbus, CLICK, Omron FINS, DNP3, BACnet/IP, and OPC UA as both client and server. Drivers are not sold separately, and there is no OPC server to license alongside Nexus.

Alarms and the audit trail

Alarm evaluation, the alarm journal and the audit trail are in the base gateway. Tag history is the historian module. It records either way, so licensing it later brings the whole archive with it instead of starting empty.

The whole toolchain

Studio for every engineer, at no charge and on as many desks as you like. Scripting, UDTs, named queries and alarms are in the box. Spectrum and Lens come with the HMI module.

Licensing

How licensing works

Perpetual, not subscription

You buy the version you install and keep running it. There is no renewal that switches the plant off.

Updates within a generation

A licence entitles updates to the latest release within its platform generation. Crossing a generation is an upgrade, so a plant standardised on one version is never forced forward by a patch.

Offline activation

Licences are signed files, not a phone-home check. A gateway on an isolated network activates and stays activated with no route to the internet.
