Maadview Recorder: Industrial Process Recorder & Playback Software
What is Maadview Recorder?
Maadview Recorder is an industrial software that records live production data and plays it back exactly as it happened. It runs seamlessly on Web, Linux, and Windows – the same software everywhere.
Maadview Recorder captures every data point – temperature, pressure, speed, alarms, operator actions – and saves it as a complete recording. Later, you can replay that recording as if you were watching the process in real time.
Why Use Maadview Recorder?
Industrial processes are complex. When something goes wrong, you need to understand why. When training new operators, you need realistic scenarios. When optimizing production, you need to compare different runs.
Maadview Recorder solves these needs:
| Problem | Maadview Recorder Solution |
|---|---|
| Incident happened, but no one saw it | Replay exactly what happened before, during, and after |
| Training on live production is risky | Train on recorded scenarios with no risk |
| Hard to compare two production runs | Play back runs side by side |
| Compliance requires proof of operation | Maintain tamper-proof recordings |
| New shift takes over, no context | Play back previous shift for handover |
Key Features of Maadview Recorder
Record Everything
Maadview Recorder captures all process data simultaneously:
-
Sensor values (temperature, pressure, flow, level)
-
Machine status (running, stopped, fault)
-
Operator actions (button presses, setpoint changes)
-
Alarms and events
-
Production counts and cycle times
High-Fidelity Playback
Play back recordings exactly as they happened. Maadview Recorder maintains original timing – no acceleration unless you want it. Watch the process unfold second by second.
Variable Speed Control
Watch recordings at normal speed. Speed up to find issues faster. Slow down to see details. Maadview Recorder gives you full control.
Pause and Step
Pause playback at any moment. Step forward frame by frame. Examine exactly what happened at a specific second.
Jump to Any Time
Skip directly to the moment of an alarm or incident. Maadview Recorder lets you jump to any timestamp instantly.
Side-by-Side Comparison
Play two recordings simultaneously. Compare a good production run against a bad one. Identify exactly where they diverged.
Bookmark Important Moments
Mark key events during playback. Add notes. Return to bookmarks later. Maadview Recorder helps you document findings.
Export Recording Clips
Export segments of recordings for reports or training. Share with colleagues who don’t have Maadview Recorder.
Automatic Recording
Schedule recordings. Start recording on alarm condition. Continuous recording with automatic file splitting. Maadview Recorder works automatically.

Recording Modes
Maadview Recorder supports multiple recording modes:
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| Continuous | Record 24/7. Automatic file splitting (hourly, daily, or by size). |
| Scheduled | Record only during specific times (shifts, production hours). |
| Event-triggered | Start recording when an alarm or condition occurs. Stop after condition clears. |
| Manual | Operator starts and stops recording as needed. |
Playback Features in Detail
Speed Control
Watch at 0.5x speed to see details. Watch at 2x or 4x speed to review long periods quickly. Maadview Recorder maintains smooth animation at all speeds.
Frame-by-Frame
Pause playback. Step forward one frame at a time. Each frame is one data update cycle. See exactly when values change.
Time Jump
Enter a timestamp. Maadview Recorder jumps directly to that moment. Perfect for finding known events.
Loop Playback
Play a section repeatedly. Watch the same 30 seconds over and over. Train operators on specific scenarios.
Zoom and Pan
During playback, zoom into charts and trends. Pan across time. Maadview Recorder keeps playback synchronized.
Conclusion
Every industrial process tells a story. But without a recorder, that story is lost the moment it happens.
Maadview Recorder captures your process story completely. It records everything – every sensor, every alarm, every operator action. Then it lets you play back that story whenever you need it.
Train operators safely. Investigate incidents thoroughly. Optimize processes intelligently. Comply with regulations confidently.
