AIS Releases a 5.7" Web Browser Operator Interface Terminal with Windows Embedded CE for HMI/SCADA, Process Control, Equipment and Machinery Applications

IRVINE, CA -- American Industrial Systems Inc. (AIS), introduces a compact 5.7” Operator Interface Terminal featuring Windows CE, touch screen interface, on-board RS-232/422/485 connections and 802.11b/g wireless communication. The open source web based HMI Panel PC with integrated touchscreen connects to industrial automation PLC, DCS, SCADA, PAC’s using industry standard protocols such as DeviceNet, Modbus TCP, Modbus, Profibus. The micro HMI terminal is designed to real-time monitor, control, and display graphical information to operators. The AIS 5.7” operator interface panel is designed with an IP64 protected front panel with touchscreen for sealing out dust and water in environmentally challenging conditions, ideal for packaging and material handling equipment, food & beverage, automotive, chemical, and utility industries.

The web based open platform human machine interface utilizes a 520MHz RISC-based processor providing high performance and extreme low power consumption. Additionally a rugged solid state 1GB of storage and embedded Windows CE 5.0 is preloaded on the system. Staying connected is simple with built-in WiFi 802.11b/g connectivity eliminating the need to run additional cables. The high brightness LCD display with touchscreen interface allows intelligent user interaction for graphical display automation, monitoring, and control.

These rugged operator interface terminals are encased in a waterproof and dustproof enclosures to ensure complete all-weather protection capable of operating under extreme temperatures -20 to 60 degrees C. VESA standard mounting holes are available on every unit for easy deployment into any installation. AIS’ commercial off the shelf (COTS) predesigned operator terminal provides a cost effective control interface which is easily integrated to new and existing installations reducing the time to market and competitiveness where service, availability, reliability, and technology are paramount.
