HMI Devices Complement the Wago-I/O-System

With Perspecto, Wago has a complete HMI (Human Machine Interface) device family in its program effective immediately: from touch monitors that can be connected directly to a Web panel on through to the programmable control panel. They are perfectly attuned to the Wago automation systems and ease the operation and observation of process data on machines and systems. The HMI devices are offered within their performance class with screen sizes from 3.5" to 15".

Thus, the touch monitor, Perspecto TM, complements the Wago-I/O-IPC with a display screen. It is connected directly to the I/O-IPC via a DVI-D or USB interface. The monitors support the standard resolutions VGA, SVGA, and XGA. An integrated USB hub permits the connection of an external keyboard, a mouse or external storage directly to the monitor.

For Wago controllers with their own Web server, the Web panel, Perspecto WP, is available as a Web client. It is connected directly to the controller and supports the resolutions QVGA, VGA, and SVGA. A browser as well as a Java virtual machine as environment for the CoDeSys Java applet, are installed on the device. The applications created can be executed in kiosk mode.

Still more high-performance is the visualization panel, Perspecto VP (Visu Panel). It includes an independent HMI runtime, which means that the display has a shorter reaction time with quick screen change times. In addition, it is available in all four standard resolutions. For project planning, there is a parallel Web visualization, which can also be displayed on a Web panel as a remote visualization.

With the control panel, Perspecto CP, the user has a high-quality automation device for all four standard resolutions. It also includes an integrated CoDeSys runtime for HMI runtime. Thus Perspecto CP offers configurable functions and it can handle control tasks independently. The PLC functionality is based on the IEC 61131-compatible CoDeSys environment.
