PanelMate Power Pro Overview

PanelMate Power Pro

Product Description

The PanelMate Power Pro Operator Interfaces are a cost-efficient, easy-to- integrate alternative to traditional hardwired operator panels in control systems. The PanelMate Power Pro products pack the latest advanced- technology operator interface func- tionality into a unique, versatile line of flatpanel designs.

The PanelMate Power Pro products have the same cutout and stud pattern as earlier model PanelMate products and offer increased capabilities.

Control functions, such as machine status indication and pushbutton-style control, are accomplished using built-in templates displayed on a vivid screen. The PanelMate Power Pro simulates the action and performance of hard- wired pushbuttons using sealed, recessed membrane control buttons on the touchpanel version or on-screen buttons on the touchscreen version. The proven intuitive operation remains the same in all PanelMate products.

Operators select templates or graphic images by moving a finger around the touchpanel or touchscreen. After selecting a template, the operator performs control actions by pressing control buttons. New functionality also allows users to navigate and initiate control action with just one touch (touchscreen only), if such functionality is configured for the unit using the PanelMate Power Pro Windows-based configuration software.

Simplified Machine Control

■Higher level functions such as machine setup, diagnostics, alarm- ing, trending and custom graphics can be configured easily using the PanelMate Power Pro configuration software. This intuitive software significantly reduces the time and effort needed to create your applica- tion. The software also provides complete compatibility of configura- tion files with other PanelMate series products (Version 2.1 or later).

■Realistic representations of machines and processes can be displayed on all PanelMate models. Detailed symbols can be designed to the pixel level or selected from a symbol library of over 3000 custom- izable and scalable images. These graphics make displays more mean- ingful and allow operators to easily recognize and understand the dis- played data. The eight-state blinking feature can be used to highlight critical functions, provide animation effects and attract the operator’s attention to important information.

■Application flexibility is provided by hardware features that include:

❑Approved for use in Type 4, 4X and 12 installations when properly mounted in a correspondingly rated enclosure. Stainless steel models available for PanelMate Power Pro 3000 and 5000 series.
