Welcome to the HS documentation. HS is an interpretive programming language with a C-like syntax used for developing client/server factory automation applications. HS can be used in two configurations, as a standalone application or integrated into the PROMIS MES application. Special methods for accessing Oracle databases, PROMIS Transaction Log and databases, and semiconductor equipment using the SECS protocol are available.
