Case study: groov streamlines HMI access

Covina Irrigating uses groov from Opto 22PC-based HMI software works great when operators are at headquarters, but what if they're not?

Covina Irrigating Co. monitors 12 separate sites in their water distribution system, with an assortment of pumps, tanks, valves, filters, and more at each site.

Find out how Field Operations Superintendent Steve Sherman broke this bottleneck and made it possible for all operators to use an HMI at once.
