Tyson Foods Inc.

For Tyson Foods, the challenges of running a global food processing company are both big and small: How do you keep production on-target and improve efficiencies on an individual line or multiple lines across a facility? How do you manage resources and maintain servers across the enterprise? Tyson Foods is solving these challenges, along with many others, by using Ignition. In this session, you’ll hear how Tyson uses Ignition all the way from the plant-floor level, where it helps improve their processes, to the enterprise level, where they use it along with the Enterprise Administration Module to manage their system centrally.

How to Write a Module

The Ignition module API has well over 1,000 classes. Where should you start? This session will dissect a module that drives a fully functional control application constructed from the new Ignition v7.7 block-and-connector classes. The example can be used as a starting point for constructing your own block language. Attendees will leave with a blueprint showing how such an application can be put together and full source code will be provided.
