Programmable Operator Interfaces
Pro-Server with Pro-Studio V2.0
2-Way Data Collection Software
Data can be read from multiple GP units simultaneously, thereby
reducing the number of data read requests from an application.
Improves data read performance when using multiple GP units.
Polling (Optimization Function)
Passwords are used to prevent data access by personnel other
than system administrators, thereby protecting data from problems
such as device overwriting, etc.
Security Function
Logging, filing and alarm data that has been "filed" via the GP's
screen editor software can be transferred to another GP77R unit's
CF card using an Ethernet network.*
* requires installation of Multi Unit E.
CF Card File Transfer Function
Since PLC devices can be monitored by simply selecting a symbol,
on Pro-Studio a simple simulation can be performed prior to starting
an application. With this function, multiple screens can be displayed
at one time, and the IP address and device address can be input.
Device Monitoring Function
Microsoft's object technology OLE/ActiveX allows manufacturing
related industrial applications to be easily connected.
OPC Compatible (OLE for Process Control)
Using the GP Series keep your systems as compact
as possible, even though your control programs get
more and more sophisticated.
The touchpanel graphic operator interface, GP Series,
is a state-of-the-arts intelligent equipment, which has
been widely installed as a main operator panel
throughout the manufacturing fields. You can operate
production systems via numerous data and graphics
displayed on the screen, while reducing numbers of
control programming and wiring.
Downsize and Simplify Your Application
[Memory Link Method]
You can create your own communication programs to
connect the GP with your specialized controllers, such
as single-board computers and PCs. The GP displays
data mapped from the host's memory for monitoring
and operation.
[Direct Access Method]
Simply select your target PLC when you create screen
data. The Direct Access method allows the GP to
communicate with Word and Bit devices in the PLC
memory directly. Since this method is, also, called as
a program-less communication, there will be no extra
load on the PLC.
Simple Communication Methods
You can simply and freely create your own operation
screens for each requirement in your applications,
using a variety of powerful tools, such as the Part Box,
Tags and D-Script macro program, on the GP-PRO/PB
III for Windows software. The software creation of the
operator interface also, allows you easy change,
debugging and reuse of the data whenever required.
Minimize Your Work for Maintenance and Sytem Expansion
After creating screen data, just download it to the GP
unit, then connect the GP with the host via a single
cable for immediate operation. You can, also, simulate
the GP with your PC for quick debugging, before you
take it to the field.
