Application for HMI
Controller with one HMI devices
Controller with several HMI devices
Several HMI devices are connected to
one or more controllers via a process bus
(e.g. PROFIBUS or Ethernet).
Such systems are deployed, for example,
in a production line to operate the plant
from several points.
Controller with several HMI devices
Control with one HMI device
An HMI device which is directly connected
to the controller via the process bus is
referred to as a single-user system.
Single-user systems are generally used
near production, but can also be deployed
to operate and monitor independent part
processes or system sections.

Application for HMI
HMI System with centralized
functions
An HMI system is connected to a PC via
Ethernet. The upstream PC assumes
central functions, e.g. recipe
management. The necessary recipe data
records are provided by the subordinate
HMI system.

Application for HMI
Support for Mobile Units
Mobile units are mainly implemented in large production plants, long production lines or in conveyor
technology, but can also be implemented in systems in which direct visual contact with the process is
necessary. The machines to be operated are equipped with several interfaces to which the Mobile Panel
170, for example, can be connected.
The operator or service technician can thus work directly on site. This enables an accurate setting up and
positioning, e.g. during the startup phase. In the case of servicing, mobile units ensure shorter downtimes.

Applications for HMI
By using the Sm@rtService option, it is possible to connect to an HMI device from a
workstation via a network (Internet, LAN).
Example: A medium-sized production company has a service contract with an external
service company. When servicing is required, the service technician responsible can
remotely access the HMI device and display its user interface directly on his workstation.
In this way, updated projects can be transferred more quickly which, in turn, reduces
machine downtime.
