Everything ProcessView+ does

One platform to run your chambers, log every reading, and generate the proof — built for today's compliance and IT requirements. No programming, no integrators.

Works with Watlow^® F4T Watlow^® F4 Watlow^® EZ-Zone^® PM Future Design^® MCT4 Not sure which you have?

ProcessView+ is also a direct replacement for Watlow's legacy WatView® software, discontinued around the Windows 7 release, on the same controllers.

Profile editing & control

Create and edit temperature and humidity profiles, then run them across your network from one screen.

Download, read, start, stop, pause, and resume profiles
Control one chamber or all 25 at once
No scripting — point, click, run

Batch information & traceability

Define the fields your process actually needs — more than fifty of them, named by you — and every run carries them from the operator's screen through to your enterprise database.

Five groups and fifty-two fields you name yourself, each switched on or off and optionally made mandatory — plus four fixed identity fields the log file name is built from
Turn on required fields and a run will not start until they are filled — and the last run's values are cleared first, so nothing carries over by accident
Map product numbers to profiles: type or scan a product ID and the matching recipe is selected and locked
Every value follows the run — into the log file name, the session record, the QA report, the CSV backup, your SQL Server, and a retained MQTT message

Data logging

Every reading is logged to a local database on your own machine and mirrored to your SQL Server.

Configurable logging intervals
Tamper-evident data files — an altered backup is detectable
Real-time SQL Server mirroring — no exports

Historical data viewer

Every session you have ever logged, searchable — then charted, analysed, exported or overlaid against another run without leaving the window.

Filter by profile, equipment or date range — or search across every batch field, so one work-order number finds every run that carried it
Analytics per zone: minimum, maximum and average, deviation from setpoint, overshoot and undershoot with the time each occurred, and heating and cooling ramp rates in °/min
Per-step breakdown beside the batch inputs the run was logged under
Overlay runs to compare, export to CSV or PDF, or check an exported backup against its integrity chain

QA reports & tolerance bands

Every finished run is judged against its own per-step tolerance bands and becomes an audit-ready PDF. The verdict has three states, because "did this run pass" is not always a yes or a no.

PASS, REVIEW or FAIL — a critical zone that only touched its warning band is flagged for a person, not quietly passed
Warn and alarm bands per step, each step set critical, advisory or monitor-only
Excursion table — zone, step, tier, peak deviation, entered and exited
Per-step statistics, plus run-vs-history comparison to catch drift

Thermal qualification — TUS, SAT & calibration

Run AMS 2750 uniformity surveys and system accuracy tests from the same software that runs the chamber, and certify them with the same signature workflow.

Temperature uniformity surveys — hot and cold spot, spread and maximum deviation against class tolerance
System accuracy tests with configurable tolerances and sign-off
Calibration wizard and calibrator records, with correction factors applied and shown
Certification PDFs carrying operator and reviewer sign-off

Alarms & alerts

Know the moment something needs attention — at the bench or on your phone.

Configurable software alarms
Email and SMS notifications
Alerts on run completion or alarm trigger

Web server & dashboards

A built-in web server puts live chamber data on any browser or phone, anywhere.

Web and mobile dashboards
View status from any device
MQTT v5 over TLS to a broker you run — self-host on AWS or Azure

Remote PC client

Monitor your chambers from a second PC over MQTT, away from the main station.

Connects to your ProcessView+ server
Live monitoring from a remote PC
Sold separately — see pricing

Simulation Mode (Virtual F4T)

Run the entire product against a built-in virtual Watlow F4T — no controller, no network, no risk.

Try everything with zero hardware or setup
Two live control loops — temperature and humidity — responding to your setpoints
Rehearse SAT, TUS, and Part 11 signing without touching real records

The verdict

A run that needs a second look isn't a failure

Most chamber software prints a stamp: pass, or fail. But a critical zone that brushed its warning band for nine seconds is neither. Call it a pass and the excursion disappears into the archive. Call it a failure and you have scrapped good product and opened an investigation you did not need.

ProcessView+ has a third verdict. Every step carries a warn band and an alarm band, and you decide what each step is worth — so the software escalates the way your quality procedure already does.

The point is what it does to the other two. FAIL means something: it is reserved for a critical step breaching its alarm band. When a run fails, nobody has to relitigate whether it really did — and the excursion table names the zone, the step, the peak deviation and the window, so the argument is about the process, not the paperwork.

And the times in that table are the times on the run's own trend chart. A reviewer can go and find the excursion rather than taking the table's word for it — the two halves of the document agree, which is the first thing anyone checks and the thing most reports quietly get wrong.
