C-more® Operator Interface HMI Touch Panels

System operators and plant floor personnel require some way of monitoring the processes they are overseeing and/or a way to control their operation. HMIs (Human Machine Interfaces) provide textual or graphical displays of system conditions and operations, vital information absent with simple pushbutton panels or switch banks. C-more Graphical HMI devices (including touch panels and a headless version), and Viewmarq LED message displays are available for your industrial needs.

 C-more® CM5 Series Touch Panels

The CM5 HMI series has the highest performance of all our HMI families and the largest screen size available (22") and outstanding value. With an amazing 1.6GHz processor in the larger units (10" and above) and 43Mbytes of memory, these HMIs provide much better trending, extra data storage, faster communication, and improved file types including jpegs (compared to EA9 series).

All CM5 panels have serial and Ethernet ports that support many of the most popular industry protocols, including EtherNet/IP and Modbus. The 10" and larger models feature an additional Ethernet port, which could be used to share important data between two separate networks. The included USB ports provide in-an-instant connections for programming and peripherals like keyboards, USB-to-audio converters, barcode scanners, memory storage, etc. The embedded SD-card slot provides easy project transfers or up to an additional 2TB of data storage for important log files. CM5 HMIs also support the secure MQTT (with TLS) protocol which has become the frontrunner for many IIoT/ cloud applications.

NOTE:  CM5 series HMIs support any EA9 series project (created with V6.73 or later) for an easy panel upgrade.

C-more® EA9 Series Touch Panels

C-more touch panels provide a graphical interface designed to interchange and display graphics, animation and data to and from a PLC by merely touching the screen. You can virtually replace every pushbutton, switch, meter, and other peripheral device with one C-more touch panel. The legacy C-more EA9 HMI series is still a good choice for your operator interface needs if already installed in a system or location. This series offers several sizes up to 15 inches with various communication ports.

The EA9 series offers features such as Ethernet, USB and serial ports, HD video outputs, and data logging. Units are available with a variety of resolutions and screen sizes (6", 7", 8", 10", 10" wide, 12", or 15" versions).

C-more Programming Software with its graphical environment and reduced object programming steps, makes developing a project for the C-more touch panels a very quick and simple task.

C-more® Micro-Graphic Text and Touch Panels

C-more Micro HMIs are packed with features yet priced for the tightest of budgets. With screens as large as 6 inches, C-more Micro panels easily display text, graphics, and bitmaps to effectively communicate critical data to the operator. Touch screen and non-touch screen panel versions are available. Free, Windows-based, easy to use software with built-in simulator.

 C-more® Headless, Remote HMI

Display your way! The C-more Headless HMI lets you decide.
C-more Headless HMI (CM5-RHMI) gives you all the functionality of a C-more touch panel without the display size limitation. This HDMI-enabled device works with most HDMI display devices of any size to display real-time operational data or messages. The integrated USB ports allows support for industrial touch screen monitor displays that support USB interface or USB mouse operations. Now you can see your data from almost anywhere.

The C-more CM5 software platform is the most user friendly and time-saving software platform that allows for simple visualization of your valuable system data. The alarming, data logging, and email support allow you to collect and share important data to other users and devices. Remote access is available from any windows PC (web browser) or on Apple iOS and Android smartphones and tablets when using the C-more Remote HMI mobile app.
