Advantech’s DeviceOn simplifies troubleshooting and helps manufacturers maximise efficiency by providing an easy-to-use interface that monitors device hardware and software health.
It supports real-time power on/off while assessing problems, administrator notifications and sending software and firmware updates over-the-air (OTA).
These processes can be conducted at scale on-site and remotely.
Real-world benefits of DeviceOn in semiconductor industry
The semiconductor industry is under pressure to maximise production in the face of global shortages and is highly sensitive to downtime, which can cost millions of dollars per hour. The need to manage large numbers of devices while ensuring their proper and efficient operation presents manufacturers with unique challenges.
A global semiconductor company chose to use Advantech’s DeviceOn to enable remote control and real-time monitoring. By ensuring the immediate reporting of emergency events, DeviceOn reduces the system downtime caused by abnormal conditions. Managers can now actively monitor a large number of production devices and receive notifications via email or SMS when equipment fails.
DeviceOn improves production by enabling remote troubleshooting. This reduces equipment failure incidents and resulting repair times. Before deploying DeviceOn, many managers were needed to configure and maintain around 100 computers every week. After implementing DeviceOn, a single IT manager can take care of all 100 computers in just one hour, boosting operational efficiency.
This is just one example of how DeviceOn is helping manufacturers to improve efficiency and reduce costly downtime.
