Red Lion’s Crimson software is a powerful, versatile and easy-to-use configuration tool that unlocks data from industrial assets. It helps users access and monitor their industrial data in real-time for increased productivity.
As a flexible, all-in-one software environment, Crimson is loaded with security features that enable OT and satisfy IT needs. Through its system web server, users can access assets remotely and use advanced diagnostics tools to reduce maintenance costs.
User-Friendly
Crimson is a user-friendly configuration software, suitable for all users, regardless of technical background or programming skills.
- Easily convert up to 20 protocols simultaneously from over 300 supported drivers to communicate with PLCs, PCs or SCADA systems. No coding is required to establish communication
- Simplify device, network and application setup with quick and easy configuration and low to no-code programming. Follow a straightforward, step-by-step process to configure your database
- Effortlessly connect within minutes to cloud platforms and enterprise systems using modern protocols like MQTT or OPC UA
- Rapidly build graphics interfaces from a comprehensive library of over 5,000 industrial symbol graphics. Drag and drop custom graphics specific to your application
Connect the Unconnected
- Crimson simplifies communication between disparate serial, Ethernet and fieldbus devices orphaned by incompatible communications
