Mid-range HMIs mark stage two of roll out

A Mitsubishi Electric Automation Systems product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Mar 6, 2007

Mitsubishi Electric has released six mid-range HMIs, complementing the four fully featured variants introduced last year.

Mitsubishi Electric has completed the second-stage roll out of its new E1000 HMIs (human machine interface) with the launch of six new units in the range, the E1032, E1041, E1043, E1060, E1061 and E1063.

These represent the mid-range HMIs, complementing the four fully featured variants introduced last year.

Entry level variants will make up the third stage roll out and complete the programme.

The new units compliment the existing E series HMIs, which Mitsubishi will be fully supporting for at least five years and thus broaden the user choice within the range.

Mitsubishi E1000 series pre-empt users' increasing demands for detailed yet easily intelligible information on the control processes of their automated plant and machinery.

With the complexity of modern machinery, local plant operators often require data or information in several different formats and in real time.

The E series graphic capabilities allow data to be presented as part of schematic diagrams, summary tables or overlaid onto photographs of the actual machines.

These new HMIs offer a wide choice of connectivity, including RS232, RS485/422 and Ethernet, and can be integrated with high-level supervisory control systems as well as providing local capabilities on the shop floor.

Of the newly launched HMIs, screen sizes vary from 3.5 to 5.7 inches.

Variants are available with mono, greyscale or colour outputs.

Colour is, of course, ideal for bringing clarity to complex presentations and for highlighting critical functions.

Significantly, there is a choice throughout the range of function key or touch screen operation.

The IP66 rating of the HMIs means that they can be deployed with confidence in humid, wet, dusty and other arduous environments.

They are also suitable when the HMI forms part of a front end control station where cosmetic considerations are taken into account.

All E1000s have a 64Mbyte RAM central processor unit (CPU) and use the Windows CE Net 4.2 operating systems and E Designer v7.2 programming.

All include a USB host for mouse connection and are supplied in rugged aluminium housings, able to withstand the rigours of life in a production environment.
