What is a HMC7000 Series?
The HMC7000 Series are combination HMI (human machine interface) and PLC (programmable logic controller) in one
unit. The HMC7000 can be used as a stand-alone unit capable of connecting directly to inputs and outputs (both digital
and analog sources) through the use of optional expansion I/O modules. These I/O modules are controlled using industry
standard ladder logic instructions built-in to the programming software. The HMC (human machine controller) also has a
display and keypad/touchscreen to allow a plant floor operator visual feedback as well as direct input to the industrial
automation system.
In addition, the HMC7000 can connect to external PLCs or other controllers via a serial connection. This flexibility
provides access to most major manufacturer PLCs such as Rockwell Automation (Allen Bradley), Schneider Electric
(Modicon Modbus), Siemens, GE Fanuc, Omron and many others.
Most important of all, the HMC7000 Series is specifically designed for harsh industrial environments. Every unit is rated
for CE (European Noise Immunity/Emissions standards), NEMA 4 rating, and UL listed for installations requiring a Class
I Division 2 product.
