Mobile touch screen HMI

Fourth Quarter 2008 Electrical switching & drive systems & components

The new SIMATIC Mobile Panel 277 from the Siemens Industry Automation Division features a brilliant 10,4 inch (26,4 cm) touch screen with a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels. The device is rated IP65 and is equipped with a touch screen, a stop button and an enabling button in the standard version. A USB interface, which is accessible from the outside, means that project transfers and backup of recipe data can be carried out very quickly. A touch pen for precise control is provided in a holder on the rear of the device.

The new mobile panel is configured by means of the SIMATIC WinCC flexible 2008 engineering software. All additional components such as connection boxes or cables are the same as those of the existing 270 family of mobile panels.
