Available at Galco; Eaton's HMi Operator Interface

MADISON HEIGHTS, MI -- Galco Industrial Electronics is proud to offer Eaton's HMi operator interface with high-end features in a low cost operator interface. Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, Eaton has a history of success providing electronic operator interfaces (OI) that are easy to install, learn, understand, modify and use.

This global technology leader developed the new HMi family of analog touchscreen operator interfaces with an easy-to-use macro ability that can store application recipes, images, historical trends and alarm data. HMi stores an entire application, including images, so later editing does not require original source files, and its Picture Bank feature lets you upload and download images between the device and a PC. Available in 4”, 6”, 8” and 10” models, HMi is a true analog touchscreen (not touch cell like many devices) operator interface with programmable function buttons for even the most robust applications. It's ability to store recipes, historical and alarm data, or transfer data to a USB memory stick, using HMi makes interfacing with your machinery easier than ever.

According to Galco's Product Manager, Ken Kruzmanowski, "Communications are more important than ever. More businesses need constant connectivity to their machinery and their process. With an expansive driver list, and 2 or 3 serial communication ports, HMi is the answer for communicating on virtually any network - it can communicate with over 20 brands of PLCs currently on the market. With the expansion slot located on the back of the unit, you can connect to a parallel printer, Ethernet network or even I/O modules, allowing you to do more with your operator interface than ever before. And, the HMi includes 10 levels of password protection."

The HMi Operator Interface product line is manufactured by adopting high-speed hardware to provide a powerful and programmable interface.
