Creating an App from Home

The large input box in the center of the Home screen is where PlantPulse Studio begins. Describe the screen you want in a single sentence and press Enter — the app is generated for you.

Creating an app with one sentence

Click the home icon (fa-house) in the left navigation to go to Home. In the center of the screen you'll see:

What would you like to build? Describe the industrial app you want in one sentence. From real-time dashboards to alarm centers — built instantly through chat.

Proceed as follows.

  1. Check that the pill-shaped toggle above the input box is set to Build (hammer fa-hammer). Ask (fa-comment-dots) on the right is a mode that only queries data without building an app → Querying Data via Chat
  2. Type the screen you want in the large input box. The placeholder text is a good example.

    Example: Build a real-time temperature and pressure dashboard for Line 3. Highlight in red when thresholds are exceeded.

  3. Press Enter or click the Build button at the lower right. (Use Shift+Enter for a line break.)

The button changes to Generating…, and after a moment you are taken automatically to the app editor. The sentence you just typed is sent automatically as the first message, so there is no need to enter it again. The screen generation process continues in Developing Apps with the Builder.

App names are assigned automatically

The beginning of the sentence you entered becomes the app name. You can change the name at any time later from the Applications list using Rename.

Writing good prompts

The agent can look up your plant's site, equipment, and tag information. The more specific you are, the more accurately it connects to real data.

Write it this wayWhy
Use equipment and line names verbatim — "Line 3", "Melting Furnace 1", "Building A compressor"The names are used to find and connect the actual equipment
Specify the screen type — "dashboard", "status board", "table", "trend chart", "gauge"The layout matches the form you want
Specify the period — "last 24 hours", "last week", "today"The query range is determined
Specify the criteria — "red above 90", "warn below 80%"Color and warning rules are applied

Conversely, a vague sentence like "make a good dashboard" may produce an unexpected screen. That said, you don't need to get it perfect from the start — once it's built, you can keep refining it through chat.

Example prompts

Building from photos or sketches

Click the camera icon (fa-camera) at the lower left of the input box to attach a photo. Exactly as the placeholder says: "Attach a photo or sketch — we'll turn it into an app as-is."

  • Upload a photo of an existing instrument panel, a hand-drawn screen sketch, or a paper inspection sheet, and the screen is built following that layout.
  • You can upload up to 3 images at a time, each 5 MB or smaller.
  • Attached photos appear as small thumbnails above the input box and can be removed with the X on the right.

Trying the suggested prompts

Below the input box are four suggested prompts marked with a sparkle icon (fa-sparkles). If you're not sure what to build first, just click one. The app is generated from that sentence immediately.

  • Real-time monitoring dashboard for Line 3
  • OEE analysis screen by equipment
  • Alarm center (filtered by severity)
  • Equipment drill-down (asset tree)

Starting from a template

Instead of starting from a blank screen, you can start from a ready-made framework. Click the store icon (fa-store) Templates in the left navigation to open the Template Marketplace.

  • Filter using the category tabs at the top: All / Monitoring / Alarms / Analytics, and so on.
  • Change the sort order on the right with Most Popular · Newest.
  • Click New App from This Template on the card you want, enter an App Name, and the app is created.

The built-in templates are as follows.

Cards without the 기본 제공 badge are templates created and published by someone in your organization, and are shown along with the author and n uses.

Share well-built screens with your team

Click Save as Template in the app editor to publish that screen to the marketplace, so colleagues can start a new app with the same configuration.

Clicking New App on the Applications screen brings up the same template list (Starter Templates). There, you set the name first, choose a template, and then click Create.

Recent apps

The Recent Apps section at the bottom of the Home screen shows the four most recently worked-on apps as cards. Click a card to open that app's editor directly.

The small colored dot at the upper left of each card indicates its status.

  • Green dot — already deployed (can be opened in the field via link)
  • Gray dot — still under development

The full list and the deployment and sharing features are under the grid icon (fa-grid-2) Applications in the left navigation → App Catalog and Sharing
