Quick and easy. That's what operators want their control systems to be. And now, Rockwell Automation is stepping in with a human machine interface (HMI) to help meet that need. The automation vendor this week (5/29) announced the worldwide launch of its newest family of HMI solutions, which offers users an updated interface that provides the right amount of control at an affordable price, the company said.
The new Allen-Bradley PanelView Component operator interface, created for integration with the Allen-Bradley MicroLogix controllers, a family of small programmable logic controllers (PLCs), provides on-terminal software, built-in mounting clamps, and simplified file-transfer capabilities.
The PanelView Component operator interface makes installing, learning, operating, and maintaining processes quicker and easier. A simplified screen interface displays the operating status clearly, making it easier to design applications. Users get direct access through any Web browser, online or offline, and can program or transfer files through USB cable or over Ethernet, eliminating the need to install additional software.
