AIS- Touch Screen HMI | Data Acquisition Logger

AIS Releases Touch Screen HMI and Data Acquisition Logger for Machine-Level and Site-Level Human-Machine Interface (HMI) Solutions

Irvine, CA-- American Industrial Systems Inc. (AIS), releases machine-level and site-level human-machine interface (HMI) solutions by packaging together a complete rugged industrial touch screen HMI and data acquisition loggers configured with IEC 61131 programming languages and IEC 60870-5, IEC 61850 communication protocols. The terminals can provide real-time production data, monitoring, and control for machinery, equipment, and industrial process control applications. AIS bundled solutions provide a complete solution from human interface to data logging I/O’s, allowing rapid deployment and fast time to market.

The AIS open standard industrial panel PC will help minimize of the complexity for equipment and machinery builders by standardizing the development language in an open-based platform, eliminating the need to reinvent the wheel for each new project development. AIS Industrial analog I/O technology enables comprehensive access and communication with remote digital I/O, pulse I/O, relays and temperature sensors as well as connections to remote serial equipment on any IP network. The AIS AII-7000 series analog I/O devices have the ability to monitor environmental alarms intrusion detection, relay contact data.

The open platform human machine interfaces are available in small sizes 5.7" all the way to 20.1" sizes, supporting built-in touchscreens, gigabit Ethernet, and RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 I/O connections. AIS’ HMI terminal solutions utilize the latest in RISC based processors for low power consumption, reliable operation in addition to the high power fanless Intel Atom™ Processor line. Industrial solid-state storages solutions are available to high shock and vibration applications which require a long lifetime read/write performance. Staying connected is simple with available WiFi 802.11b/g connectivity available in many systems, eliminating the need to run additional cables. High Resolution, sharp, high brightness LCD displays with touchscreen interface allows intelligent user interaction for graphical display automation, monitoring, and control in new ways where traditional monochrome graphical displays and physical buttons were unable to produce in the past..

These rugged operator interface terminals are available in 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.
