UniStream, the modular PLC+HMI controller, recently welcomed a new I/O module with four temperature inputs. These inputs can be configured as either PT100 or PT1000 temperature sensors. The new I/O module can be snapped directly onto a panel for an all-in-one unit or they can be installed remotely using an expansion adapter.
Produced by Unitronics, UniStream is completely modular. The user creates an all-in-one controller by selecting the elegant HMI touchscreen panel - 7-inch, 10.4-inch, or 15.6-inch - suited to their application, and then snapping on the CPU and the specific I/O modules required. This gives the machine builder a customised controller matching their application's needs while cutting costs by saving space and wiring.
Supporting the new module is the most recent version of UniLogic, the all-in-one development environment for hardware configuration, HMI design and Ladder programming. UniStream supports RS485, CANopen, SNMP, UniCAN and MODBUS (serial and Ethernet). It can also adapt to third-party protocols; the USB and serial ports support external devices such as modems, printers, barcode readers and more.
UniStream exemplifies Unitronics all-in-one philosophy: The PLC and HMI are integrated in one unit and come with free personalised tech support and a unified programming environment, in one convenient, customer-friendly package.
