OPTO 22 has
an excellent HMI product "groov" and it is now included
in the new "groov EPIC system"
The GRV-EPIC-PR1
Edge Programmable Industrial Controller is an embedded Linux®,
real-time controller with gateway functions. This groov EPIC®
processor provides control, connectivity, data handling, and
visualization at the edge of your network and is ideal for industrial
internet of things (IIoT) applications or any automation application.
The modern design
of the GRV-EPIC-PR1 offers a condensed and sturdy unit that features
a resistive-touch, high-resolution LCD display for I/O and network
configuration, trouble shooting, and system HMI. The LCD display
lifts to provide easy access to the power button, power supply
connectors, network interfaces, ports, and status LEDs.
Dual, independent Gigabit Ethernet network interfaces enable
the processor to maintain separate connections to your back office
network and your controls network.
Dual USB ports extend the capabilities of the processor so it
can handle serial communications, communicate with touchscreen
monitors, or connect to your network with approved WiFi adapters.
HDMI port displays configuration and groov View HMI on an external
large screen, which is also useful for OEM applications where
the EPIC system is built into a machine.
The GRV-EPIC-PR1 mounts on a groov EPIC chassis with a power
supply and up to 16 groov I/O modules (analog, discrete, and
serial) for real-time control, monitoring, and data acquisition.
Software included:
groov Manage, PAC Project Basic, groov View, Node-RED, Ignition
Edge®
Commission your system with web-based groov Manage, viewable
by authorized users from the integrated touchscreen or from a
computer or mobile device.
Program your EPIC using flowchart-based PAC Control with optional
scripting.
Or
Build your own custom program with secure shell access (SSH).
Future support planned for IEC 61131. (early 2019)
Easily build the HMI you need for all your systems, devices,
and data using groov View. Then securely use your HMI locally
on the EPIC's high-resolution touchscreen and from anywhere on
any authorized computer or mobile device. You can also build
a traditional Microsoft® Windows®-based HMI using PAC
Display.
Create simple logic flows with Node-RED. Use pre-built nodes
to exchange data with equipment, online services, and more.
Connect to Allen-Bradley® and Siemens® PLCs with the
included OPC-UA drivers from Ignition Edge (a product of Inductive
Automation®) (requires a groov Enterprise license).
Efficiently exchange data for IIoT projects using MQTT communications
with Sparkplug payload, also provided by Ignition Edge Onboard
(requires a groov Enterprise license).
