FactoryTalk® View

Ordering guide
FactoryTalk View is a family of Human Machine Interface (HMI) software products used to design, build
and run your operator interface applications. The FactoryTalk View family consists of FactoryTalk® View
Site Edition (SE) and FactoryTalk® View Machine Edition (ME), each with appropriate add-ons for designing
and extending the system. This ordering guide will help you to determine which FactoryTalk View products
are best suited to your needs.

Key considerations to keep in mind:

1 Beginning with V13 in April 2022, the FactoryTalk View SE product offering has been simplified to make it easier to select
and purchase everything needed to build an HMI system. Key changes include:
• FactoryTalk View SE servers are now offered as a bundle that includes the HMI server with 5, 10, or 25 clients, plus
unlimited FactoryTalk® ViewPoint web clients.
• All server bundles now include unlimited displays; there is no longer a need to pre-determine the number of displays an
BEFORE YOU BEGIN

application will require.


• There are now only two options for single-station applications: Station (unlimited displays plus unlimited FactoryTalk
ViewPoint web clients), or Station Lite (25 displays plus unlimited FactoryTalk ViewPoint web clients).
2 Add-on options for the server and station bundles include FactoryTalk® View Studio, clients or read-only clients, and a
redundant server. It is no longer necessary to purchase FactoryTalk ViewPoint licenses if you are running V11 or later of
FactoryTalk View SE; unlimited web clients are now always included.*
3 FactoryTalk View Studio is available in both Enterprise and Machine Edition versions. FactoryTalk View Studio Enterprise
can be used to develop either FactoryTalk View SE or ME applications. FactoryTalk View Studio for Machine Edition can be
used to develop only FactoryTalk View ME applications, that will run on either a PanelView™ Plus terminal or a PC running
FactoryTalk View ME Station.
4 FactoryTalk View ME Station products sold on our software portal offer volume pricing. The volume discount is applied
automatically to product in your Cart.
With its new product offering, FactoryTalk View SE products no longer offer volume pricing.
5 All FactoryTalk View products can be purchased as a Subscription or as Perpetual with Maintenance.
