Product Description
The PanelMate ePro PS family is made
up of high performance yet costeffective operator interface products.
The ePro PS family carries on the
PanelMate tradition of performance in
balance with ease of use. The ePro PS
family sets the standard for hybrid OI
systems by combining the flexibility of
Microsoft’s Windows XP Embedded
operating with the stability and reliability achieved through the solid-state
hardware design and exclusive Protect
Mode™ that provides protection for
the operating system and software.
The ePro PS family provides the performance and flexibility of PC based
operator interfaces without the associated complexity of a PC on the plant
floor. With integrated high-speed
Ethernet, serial ports, USB ports,
removable CompactFlash and
PCMCIA, the ePro PS models can be
adapted for a wide variety of user
requirements.
The ePro PS family of products are
configured with the Canvas editing
software. The Canvas editor supports
a modern suite of graphical templates,
called controls, for replacing hardwired panel devices such as pushbuttons, indicator lights, bars, readouts,
message displays, etc.
The PanelMate ePro PS family of products includes:
■ PanelMate ePro PS
■ PanelMate ePro PS OD (Outdoor
Series)
■ PanelMate ePro PS EE (Enterprise
Edition)
■ PanelMate ePro PS Classic
PanelMate ePro PS OD
The PanelMate ePro PS OD (Outdoor
Series) operator interface is designed
for use in outdoor applications. The
OD models offer increased visibility in
high ambient light, broad temperature
specifications and UV resistance.
PanelMate ePro PS EE
The PanelMate ePro PS EE (Enterprise
Edition) operator interface is designed
for end-users that need more system
memory, more data storage or
additional Windows XP Embedded
components and services to support
large Canvas applications or thirdparty software.
PanelMate ePro PS Classic
The PanelMate ePro PS Classic operator interface is designed for use by
end-users that are currently using the
PanelMate Power Pro software and are
ready for the new PanelMate ePro PS
hardware but are not quite ready to
convert their PanelMate Power Pro
configurations to Canvas applications.
Since the PanelMate ePro PS Classic
OI supports Power Pro and Canvas
Runtime software, the user can utilize
the Canvas Runtime software if and
when they are ready.
The ePro PS Classic OI is based on the
PanelMate ePro PS hardware models
with the addition of software and
licenses that allow users to run the
PanelMate Power Pro Runtime software. One difference is in the area of
drivers: the ePro PS Classic OI running
PanelMate Power Pro configurations
does not support native (non-OPC)
communication drivers, but does
support up to three OPC drivers
simultaneously.
Application Description
Whether replacing hard-wired pilot
devices and pushbuttons or providing
machine control and even SCADA
functions, the ePro PS family of products will fit from both a form and functional standpoint. In monitoring and
diagnostic applications, as well as
operator controls for critical start/stop,
ramp/jog and set point adjustment, the
PanelMate ePro PS products offer a
reliable and safe interface for a wide
range of industrial applications such as:
■ Discrete manufacturing machine
diagnostics and controls
■ Oil platform monitoring and control
in the petroleum industry
■ Central and remote water and
wastewater control panels
■ Monitoring and control panels for
local facilities/air handling
equipment
■ Tire manufacturing mixing and
building processes
■ Industrial and commercial power
house controls; building HVAC
controls
■ Material handling and palletizing
monitoring and control
■ Automotive press and machine
parts controls
