GENESIS v11 MIGRATION

    Migrate GENESIS32 & GENESIS64 to ICONICS GENESIS v11

    We upgrade legacy ICONICS SCADA/HMI systems running on deprecated Microsoft dependencies (.NET Framework, Silverlight, unsupported Windows builds) to a fully supported GENESIS v11 platform, while keeping things familiar to your operations team.

    WHY UPGRADE

    Why Upgrade Now

    GENESIS32 End of Life

    GENESIS32 is end of life, with no security patches or Microsoft support for its deprecated dependencies.

    Deprecated Microsoft Dependencies

    Older GENESIS64 versions are tied to deprecated .NET Framework and Silverlight dependencies.

    Aging Windows Server Hosts

    Aging Windows Server hosts may no longer comply with modern IT policy.

    Lost Institutional Knowledge

    Lost institutional knowledge as original integrators retire can make legacy systems harder to maintain.

    Modern HTML5 HMI

    GENESIS v11 offers a modern web-based HTML5 HMI that runs in a browser without plugins.

    Cloud & IIoT Connectivity

    OPC UA supports modern data connectivity for cloud and IIoT-ready architectures.

    Modern Authentication & Security

    Move toward modern authentication and security capabilities with a configuration reviewed against your IT requirements.

    MIGRATION SCOPE

    What We Migrate

    GraphWorX Displays

    Convert GraphWorX32 and GraphWorX64 / GDFX displays to v11, reviewing screen layout and behavior along the way.

    AlarmWorX Configurations

    Migrate alarm configurations and validate alarm behavior, priorities and operator acknowledgement workflows.

    Hyper Historian & Legacy Archives

    Plan migration of Hyper Historian and legacy historian archives, preserving years of process data for continued access.

    TrendWorX Trends

    Migrate trends and review their data sources, time ranges and presentation for familiar operator use.

    FrameWorX & Data Connectivity

    Review FrameWorX / data connectivity, OPC and OPC UA tag and point configuration, and validate the resulting connections.

    Security Configuration

    Review and migrate users, groups and permissions to align access with your current security requirements.

    Scripts & Unified Configuration

    Adapt scripts and unified configuration to v11, testing custom logic and system-specific dependencies.

    AnalytiX & FDDWorX

    Review and migrate AnalytiX and FDDWorX configurations where present, validating the associated logic and data sources.

    OUR PROCESS

    Our Step-by-Step Migration Process

    1

    Assessment

    Comprehensive analysis of your existing system, identifying migration requirements and potential challenges.

    2

    Inventory & Conversion

    Inventory every display, alarm, tag and historian point. Develop specialized custom migration tools tailored to your specific system architecture and data requirements, then convert the project.

    3

    Testing & Parallel Run

    Mirror your existing GENESIS32 or GENESIS64 project and validate point for point, running alongside the legacy system where practical.

    4

    Cutover

    Plan the transition around production schedules with minimal downtime and maximum data integrity as priorities.

    5

    Training & Support

    Provide operator and engineer walkthroughs of what changed, plus ongoing support for the migrated system.

    PLANNED & TESTED

    Risks We Reduce

    Our migration process is designed to reduce these risks through inventory, conversion checks, testing and a planned cutover.

    Unplanned Downtime

    Assessment, parallel validation and a production-aware cutover plan are designed to reduce unexpected interruptions.

    Broken or Mis-scaled Displays

    Display conversion checks and operator reviews help identify layout, scaling and navigation issues before cutover.

    Lost or Orphaned Historian Data

    Archive inventory and access checks are designed to reduce gaps and preserve usable historical records.

    Missed Alarms After Cutover

    Alarm testing reviews configuration, delivery and acknowledgement behavior before the new system takes over.

    Broken Data Connections

    Point for point validation checks OPC, OPC UA and other configured data paths against the existing system.

    Security Gaps from End of Life Software

    Dependency and access reviews help reduce exposure from unsupported software and outdated permissions.

    INDUSTRIES

    Industries Served

    Manufacturing

    Migrate production monitoring and control interfaces with the plant's operating schedule in mind.

    Building Management

    Modernize building system displays, alarms and connectivity while keeping facilities workflows familiar.

    Warehousing

    Review warehouse equipment monitoring, data connections and operator screens for a coordinated transition.

    Pharmaceutical

    Plan migration of process monitoring, historical records and access controls around site requirements.

    Food & Beverage

    Migrate process displays, trends and alarms around production and operating needs.

    COMMON QUESTIONS

    GENESIS v11 Migration FAQ

    The timeline depends on the number of displays, tags, alarms and historian points, and how much custom scripting exists. The assessment produces a scoped timeline for your system.

    In many cases, the new v11 system can be built and validated in parallel on separate servers, so operators keep using the existing system until cutover. We confirm the approach during assessment.

    We plan historian migration so existing archives are preserved and remain accessible for trending and reporting.

    GENESIS v11 is licensed through ICONICS. Your upgrade path depends on your current licenses and support agreement status. We help review what you have and coordinate with ICONICS or your distributor.

    We keep screens, navigation and alarm behavior familiar wherever possible, and provide walkthroughs of anything new, such as browser-based access.

    Yes, we migrate both GENESIS32 and GENESIS64 projects, including 10.9x, to GENESIS v11.
