OI100 - Hand held operator interface

The OI100 OPERATOR INTERFACE has been developed as a versatile LCD display  for displaying machine parameters and messages. The fact that the controller is programmable enables the user to program their own unique text messages and not be restricted by a pre-programmed unit.

The OI100 has a built in PLC which is programmed in ladder logic. PROCON’s ProSoft windows-based PC software is used to generate the ladder diagram, compile the program, and then download the program to the OI100 via the programming port on the side of the unit.

The programming port supports the Modbus RTU protocol and all of the internal registers and I/O status can be accessed through this port.

The OI100 also has a second communications port which can be configured internally for RS232 or RS485 communications. This port can be configured as a Modbus master or Modbus slave and can read parameters to be displayed from a OI100 Series PLC or one of the many MOD-MUX I/O modules.

The OI100 Operator Interface is a hand held unit and has been developed as a tool for technicians to adjust parameters at the time of commissioning.
