The Museum of Krapina Neanderthals deployed ICONICS GENESIS32 HMI/SCADA to unify building management, security, and multimedia subsystems. The solution aggregates data from HVAC, lighting, fire alarms, intrusion systems, projectors, and scent equipment through Ethernet and OPC connections. Automation scripts reduce complex controls to simple keyboard commands, enabling non-technical staff to manage the entire facility from one interface.

Key takeaways

GENESIS32 SCADA integrates BMS, security, and multimedia subsystems via OPC and Ethernet

Matrikon OPC server and Schneider M340 PLC provide data acquisition and control

Protocols supported include SNMP, C-BUS/LON, DMX, HTTP, and ASCII

Automation scripts simplify operations to a few keyboard commands

Single-PC graphical interface enables real-time monitoring and alarming
