INTERVIEW
– Eugene Mazo and Ken Sinclair
Eugene Mazo, CEO,
DGLogik Inc.
The Latest DGLogik’s Technology
New IoT Software Solution rebuilt from the ground up in HTML5
+ our team developed a
modern “plug and play” wizard
Sinclair:
Will you recap the latest of
DGLogik’s technology and what you showcased at Niagara Summit?
Mazo:
Sure Ken. We showcased two things. The biggest was our new, IoT
Software Solution -
DGLux5. It is our renowned visualization platform
(DGLux) rebuilt from the ground up in HTML5 making it the modern-day
cross-platform solution not requiring any browser plugins or mobile
apps. DGLux5 provides an advanced visual web application development
environment with enhanced workflows and powerful new features that you
just don’t see available from other HTML5 editors.
The other showcase was Project Assist for DGLux. Our professional
services team used DGLux itself to create a modern “plug and play”
wizard which allows users to create a standard interactive interface
for building systems in less than an hour. Project Assist guides the
user through a few steps to configure the overall style, create
floorplans with zone outlines, create detailed equipment pages and link
everything to live data.
Sinclair:
How does DGLux5 make a great
impact within the building automation industry?
Mazo:
We believe that DGLux5 is revolutionary in the sense that it is built
on the latest cross-platform technology available today (HTML5) and
will change the way visual interfaces for building systems are created
and accessed. Having focused a significant amount of time on
optimization DGLux5 performance is unrivaled in terms of loading speeds
and interaction capability across all kinds of devices. Two years ago
we talked about how BAS Mobility will revolutionize the way building
managers operate and conserve... back then, mobile apps were required
to access the important information. Today, DGLux5 users just need to
simply click a URL link to access their interfaces on any mobile device
enabling them to be more efficient in managing their buildings. We find
that mobility, today, is an expectation for the user rather than an
afterthought and are happy to be the first provider of a technology
fully supporting this usecase.
DGLux5 built in HTML5, has allowed us to provide an ultrafast user
experience, an all responsive scaling environment, smarter design
structure, more intelligent logic sequencing, and ideal
interconnectivity among data providers. There really isn’t anything
else on the market that is as advanced and flexible as DGLux5. It is
extremely powerful!
Sinclair:
Does installation and workflow
greatly differ from DGLux2?
Mazo:
A little bit. Naturally, there will be a little bit of a learning curve
but it results to greater efficiency in design and development time.
With the release of DGLux5, we are building a community of users and an
open forum for people to ask questions and get answers regarding
features and workflows. Our goal is to decrease the learning curve for
all users regardless of whether or not they have used DGLux2.
Additionaly, I’m not sure if you heard, but we have been providing
Live, complimentary workshops every Friday. We record them and post
them on social media and they are always available through our website
for our users.
Sinclair:
Can you tell me a little bit about
the improved workflows?
Mazo:
Yes. I’ll go over a few of the many. Let’s start with Smart Design --
DGLux5 has a true HTML5 Editor with enhanced design tools. First, we
are able to convert objects to symbols. This enables and ensures for
easy widgetizing and provides rapid customizations on your graphical
components throughout your entire project. For example, let’s say you
need to change a color on your gauge and this same gauge happens to be
used throughout your project. You simply change the color of one of the
gauges and it updates every single one.
Another significant enhancement, is a visual block programming
environment that we call
Dataflow, this allows a much more efficient
workflow in creating interface logic and interaction without ever
having to write a single line of code.
I highly recommend visiting our website to read more on DGLux5 -

DGLogik seems to be making some big
advancements! I see that you were
selected into Cisco EIR program, as well. What is that all about?
Mazo:
Yes, we are extremely excited to be a part of this innovation program!
Through this program, Cisco is providing us with the opportunity to
work with internal and external engineering and business experts. It is
great validation for us to have a company like Cisco identify us as a
leading technology company and publicly support our cause. Our
relationship with Cisco will accelerate and expand our ability to
provide innovative solutions that enable, manage and visualize the
Internet of Everything in multiple sectors on a global scale.
Sinclair:
Well, as always, it has been a
pleasure, Eugene. I look forward to
seeing DGLux5 in action and look forward to seeing you guys at IBCon!
Mazo:
We hope to see you there, Ken!
