Vision560by UnitronicsThe Vision560™ is a powerful PLC with a built-in HMI Operator Panel comprising a 5.7” colour touch-screen and 24 programmable function keys. On-board I/Os can be added by simply snapping a module onto the back of the PLC; Snap-in I/O Modules come in several configurations. I/O Expansion modules enable integrating up to 1024 I/Os per Vision PLC. The Vision560™ offers a rich range of embedded features such as multiple auto-tuned PID loops, and internal 120K database for datalogging and recipe programming. Communication options include TCP/IP Ethernet, GSM/SMS, MODBUS and CANopen networking plus remote access for data acquisition and program download. 2MB Ladder code application memory (plus 6MB for images and 1MB for fonts) enable the Vision560™ to run complex control and automation tasks. The 16-bit colour touch-screen HMI enables the display of colour-coded operator instructions and red, attention-grabbing alarm screens. It can also display graphs according to historical values—to reflect trends of recorded data. Display options are almost endless with more than 1000 user-designed screens, and up to 500 images per application. The Vision PLC/Graphic HMI series introduces an unbeatable price-performance ratio, enabling users to enjoy the advanced features of both the operator panel and the PLC, while maintaining low budget, reduced programming time and minimum wiring. Specifications PLC I/O options: via onboard and expansion modules I/O types: Digital (including shaft-encoder inputs & PWM outputs), Analog, & Temperature measurement Application Logic: 2MB; Fonts: 1MB; Images: 6MB Scan time: 9µsec per 1K of typical application Up to 20 built-in PID loops, including auto-tune Recipe programs and datalogging via Data Tables HMI 5.7" 256-Colour Touchpanel, QVGA TFT display (or CSTN) Display ‘touchable’ images, text and graphs according to real-time conditions and historical values ‘Touch’ properties can be assigned to all text and graphic on-screen elements Data entry/modification via keypad Up to 1024 user-designed displays and 500 images per application 255 variables per display; link up to 150 images/messages to each variable LCD illuminated screen Image library containing hundreds of images Virtual keyboard Info mode: view/modify I/O status, integer values, and system data via the panel Communications Two isolated RS232/RS485 ports Ethernet via TCP/IP port (optional) GSM/SMS support Remote access for data acquisition and program download MODBUS (master/slave) CANbus and UniCAN OPC/DDE server Additional communication protocols Special Features Flexible PID: Up to 20 built-in PID loops, including internal auto-tune, ramp-soak programmer and bumpless transfer. Use Vision560™ PID loops to control temperature, level, and pressure, while the colour touchscreen displays data, colour trend graphs, and red, attention-grabbing alarm screens. Data Tables: Use Vision’s smart data tables (120K dynamic data and 192K fixed data), for datalogging and production recipes programs. Easy Scrolling between Recipes: Simply scroll between pre-programmed recipes or menus, using pre-programmed touchkeys. This enables you to choose and activate a desired task via the HMI - immediately, on-site. Image Library: Easily design your graphic displays using the Vision’s extensive image library. Time-based Control: Do you need a specific task to be performed at a specific time and date? Simply mark the hour, date or weekday in the PLC software—and you have created time-based control in 3 clicks. Information Mode: Press the key on the operator panel to enter the PLC’s Information Mode, providing you with powerful diagnostic capabilities. PWM Outputs: Control stepper motors or PID-based applications, via PWM, with the Vision's onboard PWM outputs (up to 50 kHz for npn). Shaft-encoder Inputs: Use the controller’s integral 10kHz inputs as high-speed counters, frequency measurers, or to directly connect to shaft-encoders. Virtual Keypad: Application requires data entry? The Vision's virtual keypad pops up automatically. All-in-one software enables you to develop your PLC and HMI applications in one environment, establish modem and data communications, test and debug your programs in on-line mode, remotely access your controller, and more.
