One big screen, a row of operators, and a single mouse only one of them can hold at a time is a bottleneck exactly where you can least afford one. MouseMux gives every operator their own cursor on the same SCADA stations, control-room walls and factory-line HMIs, with role-based rights deciding who can touch what.
Running a single shared station? The Ultra licence covers commercial use for a one-time fee. For a control room, an SLA and a role model, we build the whole thing with you.
On a normal Windows PC there is one cursor, so operators queue for control during exactly the moments that matter most. MouseMux gives every operator their own cursor on the same SCADA or HMI screens: plug in a mouse and keyboard per operator, at the desk or across the control-room wall, and everyone works the same running process at once.
Roles decide what each person may touch: who changes a setpoint, who stops the line, who only watches - and the system enforces it, so controls that should never be shared simply can't be. Lock an operator to a single panel, window or even one control; give supervisors an override that steps in over any seat; wire in whatever hardware the room runs, from keypads and foot pedals to bespoke consoles; and put routine sequences on quick actions, so one press runs the drill correctly every time.
Below: a supervisor trims a setpoint while another operator clears an alarm, both at the same moment. A trainee reaches for the breaker and is stopped - their role does not allow it. Separate cursors, one screen, rights the system enforces.
The same engine covers a two-operator SCADA desk and a wall of screens with a whole shift working at once. A few of the setups people run with it:
A row of operators face one large video wall. Each drives their own section of it, their own cursor color-tagged so a glance shows who is where, and no one waits for the mouse during an alarm.
Two or three operators share one SCADA workstation, each locked to their own process area. One handles coolant while another watches the turbine, both acting at the same instant on the same running system.
Not everyone may touch everything. A supervisor can change a setpoint or trip a breaker; a trainee can only pan and watch. Rights are set per operator and enforced, so the critical controls stay protected.
On the plant floor, several people work one line's HMIs together, each on their own station or panel, without buying and cabling a separate PC for every position.
Surveillance, energy and utility centres put a whole watch on one wall of feeds and dashboards, each operator working their own set of screens in parallel.
Train new operators on the real system: instructor and trainee share one running scenario, each with their own cursor, so the lesson never becomes a scramble for the mouse.
MouseMux works at the Windows input layer, so it fits the way control rooms actually run: unusual panels, mixed hardware, and stations that must keep working through lock screens, updates and shift changes.
Every device becomes its own routed operator, locked where it belongs, with rights that the system enforces rather than trusts people to respect.
Pin each operator's mouse to their own HMI panel, window or zone, so control never crosses into a screen that is not theirs.
Decide per operator who can change a setpoint, stop the line or only watch. Roles are enforced by the system, not left to convention.
Cursors survive the lock screen, UAC prompts and sleep, so a station stays under multi-operator control around the clock without dropping out.
Start at boot, elevated and unattended, so an operator station comes back multi-user on its own after a restart with no one logged in to babysit it.
A single shared station you can set up yourself with the Ultra licence. For a control room that a plant depends on, we build the whole thing: a multi-operator setup tailored to your SCADA, your panels and your roles, integrated and hardened for round-the-clock use.
And we stand behind it with the things that matter when the room can never go dark: a support agreement, fast remote help, and a rollout that is the same in every room you run.
We build the operator model, panel locking and role rights around your existing SCADA and HMI software, not a generic overlay.
A support agreement scoped to your operation, so a problem in the room has a guaranteed response instead of a queue.
Support staff connect and get their own cursor on the station, fixing an operator position remotely without taking the room off control.
One operator and role configuration, tested once and rolled out identically to every station and every control room you run.
Yes. MouseMux gives each operator their own mouse, keyboard and cursor on the same station, so a whole shift can monitor and act on one running system at the same time instead of taking turns.
Yes, that is the core of it. Rights are set per operator: who can change a setpoint, who can stop the line, who can only watch. The system enforces the roles, so protected controls can't be reached by the wrong person.
Yes. The cursors survive the lock screen, UAC prompts and sleep, and MouseMux can run as a Windows service that starts at boot, elevated and unattended, so a station comes back under multi-operator control on its own.
Yes. Each operator drives their own section of the wall with their own color-tagged cursor, locked to that region, so several people work one large display in parallel.
No. MouseMux is the input layer underneath: it runs alongside your existing SCADA and HMI software and makes it usable by several operators, each with their own cursor and their own rights, at once.
Yes. We build a tailored multi-operator setup around your SCADA, panels and roles, with an SLA, remote support and central configuration across rooms. Talk to us.
