Operator Interface Touchscreen Family

Smart design to fit your needs

From the large 12.1” TFT LCD Screen, to the compact 4.6” STN LCD, our screens support either monochrome or 256 colors with high pixel resolution to give you sharp images and excellent visibility. In keeping with IDEC’s attention to detail, our slimbody design adapts to applications where space is limited. With up to 8MB of memory and a 200MHz 32-bit RISC CPU, IDEC Touchscreens put control, power and speed at your fi ngertips.

Versatile, High functionality

IDEC Touchscreens can function as either a stand alone controller or communicate with IDEC PLCs and a wide array of major manufacturers’ PLCs.

Touchscreens interface with any of your equipment to provide graphical data presentations in vivid color and to display bar graphs and meters to represent

analog data. Illuminated pushbuttons can replace 12.1” HG4F physical mechanical switches; pilot lamps can dis-

play on/off states and show almost any production information you need to monitor.

Programming power made easy

IDEC’s powerful WindO/I-NV2 software lets you create colorful graphical interfaces for easier production supervision and control. A built-in library of over 5000 bitmap images helps you easily display almost every manufacturing activity you want to control.

Our programming software is intuitive and user- 10.4” HG3F friendly. With re-sizeable pop-up screens, Windows

compatible fonts, and multilingual text capabilities, you enjoy the utmost fl exibility in designing and programming.

Features

The OI Touchscreen Family is ideally matched to today’s sophisticated technology. Using a wide range of graphical options, you can represent specifi c equipment, make production information immediately apparent and instantly display safety problems. Consolidating controls on an IDEC touchscreen eliminates costly investments in wiring and installation of multiple pushbutton indicators on a traditional control panel. Just think how you can benefi t with touchscreens.

Expansion I/O

An expansion digital I/O module gives you the option of expanding your system with 16 DC inputs and 16 transistor outputs for basic PLC control (excluding 4.6” HG1F touchscreen).

Basic Data Representation

A built-in software library of over 5000 bitmapped images lets you graphically represent al-

most any plant activity or equipment that you want to monitor or control. In addition to representing meters, bar graphs and switches, you can also incorporate keypads to facilitate changing values. Our user-friendly programming software lets you

design each screen by simply selecting objects from a pull-down menu or from a row of object icons and dropping it onto the screen work area. All bitmap images are available in 256 colors and are easily re-confi gurable.

Ethernet Support

Remote		Local Area

Recipe, Alarm and Trend Logging

The Recipe function allows you to conveniently set operational parameters, which can be individually defi ned for different processes. The Alarm function stores historical events with a date and time stamp compliant to the ISA

(Instrument Society of America) Standards, adding additional options to display and manage alarm messages. Trend Logging expresses data in graphical form according to the time period you defi ne. Using these functions, you can quickly view production information and collect and manage data.

Compact Flash Card

OI Touchscreens (excluding 4.6” HG1F) support Compact Flash (CF) Cards with up to 512 MB of memory. In addition to storing recipe, alarm and trending data, the CF Card can also store screen captures in a BMP format for documentation purposes. The CF Card can hold one or more projects and you can easily transfer a project directly to another touchscreen by simply inserting the card into the second touchscreen and downloading what you need.

This permits a single PLC to communicate with multiple IDEC touchscreens, where one touchscreen serves as the master and up to 15 as slaves. An OI Link will accommodate communications over a maximum distance of 200 meters. The OI Link should be used whenever you are using more than one touchscreen in a location to monitor and control a single PLC.

1:N PLC Communication

This mode allows a single IDEC touchscreen to communicate with multiple PLCs. It is used when you need only one centrally located touchscreen to monitor and control PLCs in different locations. Depending on the PLC type, a maximum of 31 PLCs can be connected to one touchscreen. PLC manufacturers supported for 1:N communication are: IDEC OpenNet Controller and MicroSmart family, Automation Direct (Koyo): DirectLogic-DL205/405 and Modicon: Modbus RTU.

Pass Thru Function

This function lets you download a PLC program from a PC through the touchscreen without interrupting operations. Only one cable is needed to program both units. The Pass Thru communications function is applicable to the following PLCs: IDEC OpenNet Controller and MicroSmart family, and Mitsubishi MELSECFX, FX3UC and Q.

Use this capability to print alarm data so a hard-copy record of specifi c events can be maintained. Copies of screens can also be printed when needed for documentation. Serial printers are supported on all OI Touchscreens, while Parallel Printers are supported on 10.4” and 12.1” models.

Barcode Reader Support

IDEC Touchscreens provide a serial port that you can confi gure for use by special communication devices such as barcode readers. A barcode reader can send data directly to the touchscreen, where it can be used for quick viewing before being transferred to the PLC for further data manipulation.

Debugging Functions

Two modes are available for either monitoring data or troubleshooting. Once you download the project you created in WindO/I-NV2 to the touchscreen, you can use the Debugging Mode to communicate directly with the touchscreen and switch between screens or view and modify batch data from the controls of your PC. In Simulation Mode, you can use simple On/Off control without connecting to the PLC.
