Embedder Control

Open

The embedder symbol allows to seamlessly incorporate external content, allowing you to display and interact with content from another source directly within your PI Vision environment. This symbol essentially creates a cohesive experience by bringing in external content as if it were a natural part of PI Vision. Many customers use this symbol to seamlessly embed content from e.g.:

1. Microsoft Power BI

2. Microsoft Sharepoint

3. MES System

4. LIMS System
