Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 DOP-B Series Human Machine Interface (HMI)
DOP-B series HMI is manufactured by adopting easy-to-use software and high-speed hardware
to provide a powerful and stable programmable interface. Screen Editor software program is a
user-friendly program editor of DOP-B series HMI for Windows. Please refer to the following
section for an introduction to its features and functions.
1.2 Features
External Controller Serial Drivers Support
DOP-B series HMIs support more than twenty brands of external controllers, including
Delta, Omron, Siemens, Mitsubishi, etc. All of the newly supported communication
protocol information could be found on our website
(http://www.delta.com.tw/industrialautomation/
requirements. (All other trademarks in this manual are property of their respective
companies.)
) for upgrade to meet the users’
Windows® Fonts Support
Screen Editor software program also provides all fonts used by Windows®.
Quick Execution and Communication Macro
Screen Editor software program is able to handle complicated calculations by executing
macros. In addition, the users can create a communication protocol by using
communication macro command and connect to the specific system or the controller via
the COM port.
Rapid USB Upload/Download
Not only RS-232, the users also can use Screen Editor to upload and download screen data
and programs via USB interface. Screen Editor software program shortens the upload /
download time by using USB interface.
Recipes
Screen Editor software program provides a useful recipe editor that is similar to Microsoft
Excel for the users to edit recipe easily and input multiple recipes simultaneously. When
the users need to download multiple recipes simultaneously, the recipe function can swap
Revision May, 2010 1-1
Chapter 1 Introduction
internal memory of HMI. After the users finish editing the recipes, the users can download
the recipes individually.
Direct Communication with Three External Controllers
DOP-B series HMI is capable of connecting to three different or the same controllers
directly via three communication ports.
Support Multiple Controllers Connections
One DOP-B series HMI is able to connect to multiple controllers in serial through RS-485
interface of COM2 and COM3 ports.
(NOTE 1)
.
Simulation Function
(NOTE 2)
Screen Editor software program provides simulation feature which allows the users to
develop and debug software on a PC connected to DOP-B series HMI before downloading it
to DOP-B series HMI.
Off-line Simulation: When the editing and compile operation is completed, the users can
use off-line simulation function to simulate HMI operation and check if it is correct on a
stand-alone a PC directly without connecting to the controller.
On-line Simulation: When the editing and compile operation is completed, the users can
use on-line simulation function to simulate HMI operation and check if it is correct on a
stand-alone PC directly with connecting to the controller.
USB Host Port (USB Host) Equipped
DOP-B series HMI has a built-in USB Host interface for the connection to USB disk, card
reader and printer with a USB socket. The users can save data, copy programs, print the
screen immediately and increase the data storage space.
Print Function
DOP-B series HMI supports the printers which have COM port or USB interface.
Multiple Security Protection
DOP-B series HMI provides passwords to protect the designer’s intellectual property rights
and also for the users to set the user priority for important elements. Only the users
whose priority is higher than the element can use the element.
Multi-language Support
Up to 16 languages can be selected and used without installing a multilingual operating
system. A multi-language environment is very important and enables the users to work
more efficiently.
1-2 Revision May, 2010
Chapter 1 Introduction
NOTE
1) The controller should provide RS-485 interface.
2) Off-line/On-line simulation functions are only provided for some parts of the controllers. Also,
the execution time of on-line simulation only can continue 30 minutes. After the simulation
time has finished, HMI will return to the main screen of Screen Editor V2.0 software program
from simulation window automatically.
3) When executing simulation function, the resolution of PC screen should be set to 24bit and
higher, otherwise the simulation function may not work normally.

Chapter 2 Working with Hardware Devices
2.1 Usage of SD Card and USB Disk
SD Card
SD card (supports SDHC) can be used to save and transmit data. The supporting file
format is FAT32. Before using a SD card, reformatting (FAT32) via HMI is needed. Only SD
card that formatted by HMI can be used on both HMI and Windows® OS system. (Even it
can be read/written in some format, but faults may occur due to different format among
Win95/98/2000/XP versions)
USB Disk
USB disk can be used to save data. It also can be used to copy data from HMI and its
format is FAT32 as well. When using USB disk to save data, we recommend that the
storage capacity should be less than 2GB and the users should enter system screen first
