What is the Professional Edition

The Professional Edition of CGI Studio is designed to create easier and without compiling your HMI. The Enterprise Edition required to compile the player after you have defined your data binding items (e.g. a temperature sensor value, a physical switch button or just a simple web service data request). 

The Professional Edition comes with a predefined list of predefined data binding items, already precompiled and a sample script in Python to easily be able to integrate your HMI on your desired target platform. 

So you don't need to compile the player and can easily connect your HMI via Python scripting.
