Summary:Systems and methods for communicating with a blowout preventer (BOP) control system. An example system includes a pressure control system for controlling a pressure control manifold fluidly connected with the wellbore and a BOP control system for controlling BOP equipment. The pressure control system may include a sensor operable to output pressure data indicative of wellbore pressure. The BOP control system may include a sensor operable to output BOP data indicative of operational status of the BOP equipment and a BOP human-machine interface (HMI) usable by a human user to monitor and control the BOP equipment. The BOP control system may be communicatively connected with the pressure control system, receive the pressure data, and display, on the BOP HMI, information based on the pressure data.
