The test took place within the hybrid model factory of the Center Industry 4.0 Potsdam (ZIP4.0), examining 5 different scenarios: commissioning, configuration of individual application scenarios, alerting itself, emergency processing, and forwarding of data to a higher-level system.

Among these four, SIGNL4 emerged as the winner, and was recognized by “Factory Innovation” magazine as the most innovative alerting system in the “Professional Alarm Notification Software in Manufacturing” category.
