The organization of complex user interfaces in HELIO is greatly simplified by the use of page groups. These are structured containers that can clearly bundle multiple parameter or trend pages. The focus is on clear and intuitive navigation that helps users maintain an overview at all times, even with extensive HMIs.

To create a Page Group, existing pages are simply placed in this container. The Page Group automatically generates a sub-navigation in the menu, the structure of which is directly derived from the order of the pages it contains. In addition, a breadcrumb trail on the pages helps users to find their way around.

As an alternative to integration in the menu, the navigation can also be integrated directly into the pages as a sidebar.

If pages are moved within the Page Group, the navigation adapts without any additional effort.

This concept enables a consistent and easy-to-understand operating structure – especially in scenarios where numerous parameter pages are used. With automatic navigation and a clear structure, HELIO supports operators and developers alike in creating efficient and well-structured HMIs.
