Technical Specifications

Key Advantages

• High Performance at Value Pricing: Quad-core processor provides swift screen transitions, smooth trend animations, and rapid response times.
• Free & Intuitive Software: Configured using the C-more Programming Software (free download from AutomationDirect), eliminating ongoing licensing fees.
• Versatile Connectivity: Built-in Ethernet and serial ports support simultaneous protocols, allowing connection to multiple brands of PLCs (AutomationDirect, Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Omron, Mitsubishi, and Modbus RTU/TCP).
• Remote Access & Web Server: Integrated web server allows remote viewing and control via web browsers or mobile devices across secure local networks.
• Rich Visual & Functional Feature Set: Supports real-time alarm history, multi-language displays, trend charts, recipe handling, and user security levels.

Important Installation & Usage Precautions

• Power Supply Requirements: Operate only on 12 to 24 V DC stable power. Applying AC line voltage directly will permanently damage the unit.
• Enclosure Installation & Gasket Sealing: To maintain the NEMA 4X / IP65 front panel seal, ensure the panel cutout matches precise manufacturer dimensions and all mounting clips are tightened evenly to specified torque settings.
• Touchscreen Care: Use fingers or a soft blunt stylus only. Avoid sharp metal objects or aggressive solvent-based cleaners that could puncture or haze the resistive touch film.
• Indoor Use Limitation: The front panel is rated for indoor industrial environments. Avoid mounting in direct outdoor sunlight or excessive UV exposure, which can degrade the LCD and touchscreen material.
• Grounding & Noise Isolation: Connect the frame ground terminal properly to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) on serial and communication lines.

Applications

• OEM Machinery & Packaging: Compact touch interface for wrapping, filling, capping, and labeling equipment.
• Water & Wastewater Control: Local visualization and remote monitoring for pumping stations, filtration systems, and dosing controls.
• Factory Automation & Assembly Lines: Machine-side panel replacing traditional physical pushbuttons, pilot lights, and digital readouts.
• HVAC & Building Systems: Monitoring and setpoint adjustment for air handling units, chillers, and boiler systems.
