Pro-face has released details of a new range of touch screen displays and an all-new screen editor software platform. The new GP3000 Series is a complete lineup of graphic operator interface panels created for high performance and reliability. Applications are created on the new GP-Pro EX software platform. GP-Pro EX is a revolutionary new screen editor with an extensive range of features that drastically reduce development and training time. This combination of high performance hardware and groundbreaking software makes it possible for users in manufacturing, building, and home automation to take command of their systems at an entirely new level.
The GP3000 Series of touch screen, fully graphic operator interface terminals is a huge leap forward for factory automation and builders of industrial, building, and home automation systems. This series offers significant advances in display quality, processing speed, and supported connectivity, with a full line-up to choose from including 19 different models with 142,5 mm to 375 mm screens.
The GP3000 Series offers TFT LCD models with 65 536 colours as standard with no additional equipment required. STN models offer 4096 colours and monochrome LCD with 16 shades. The analog TFT touch panel is rugged and responsive to the operator's touch. The aluminium die cast bezel, available in all sizes is environmentally friendly and offers superb heat dissipation, with a simple and stylish design.
These displays are tough enough for industrial applications yet offer display quality with the resolution and range of colours to present a large volume of information to the operator quickly and clearly. Because the graphic touch screen integrates the functions of information sharing and control, they save space, while at the same time making operation more simple and intuitive, which helps to eliminate user error.
High-speed, 64 bit RISC processor and large memory capacity give these units the fastest response time of any displays in the industry. A wide range of interfaces including USB host I/F, serial, CF card and Ethernet are standard on most models. Screens can be downloaded over USB at speeds seven times faster than current displays. The USB host port allows easy connection to barcode readers, printers, and a wide range of peripheral devices.
GP-Pro EX includes communication protocols for a wide range of PLC types from many different manufacturers, and Pro-face continues to develop new protocols constantly in response to industry demands.
These touch screen displays come in a wide variety of models and sizes, and offer very high-resolution displays for managing and monitoring crucial industrial processes. This family of products also offers cost-optimised models that make it possible to replace traditional solutions with better performing graphic terminals that can be integrated into moderately priced equipment.
