Pavilion8 software Rockwell Automation claims its Pavilion8 Model Predictive Control (MPC) software now offers a more user-friendly configuration environment, step-by-step prompts, warning diagnostics and flexible work flows.

• Updated, Windows-based solution builder tools 

• Multivariable run-time controller

• Continuous controller monitoring

• Supports modern browsers and operating systems
