The programmable TX700 series HMI/PLCs are equipped with communication interfaces ranging from Modbus RTU to OPC-UA and support a variety of industrial Ethernet fieldbuses. This family uses multicore processors at an operating frequency of 800 MHz and a Linux-based platform, enabling implementation of complex control tasks and visualizations. An all-glass capacitive touch display provides intuitive operation with gesture control similar to that used in smartphones. The range of interfaces provides versatility for use in visualization and control in distributed applications such as conveyors and other automated applications. Overall system complexity is reduced through the single device functioning as both the HMI interface and logic controller.
