OverviewThe document provides an overview of using CIMREX operator terminals with PMAC through a serial connection. CIMREX offers a variety of terminal models suitable for industrial environments, featuring options like different sizes, display types, and input methods.
SpecificationsCIMREX terminals are designed to withstand oil and water, making them ideal for industrial settings. They require an external 24V power supply and connect to PMAC via a specially made serial cable. Programming is facilitated through a Windows-based software that is compatible across all terminal models, allowing easy project transfer between different models.
Communication with PMACCommunication between CIMREX terminals and PMAC is straightforward. For instance, the CIMREX-71 terminal uses a touch-screen interface where actions are defined as areas on the screen linked to PMAC variables. The CIMREX-30 uses function keys for similar operations. Both models allow PMAC code to remain consistent despite changes in terminal models.
Programming and MonitoringProgramming involves associating PMAC variables with screen areas or function keys. The terminals support monitoring and displaying PMAC variables using various graphic indicators. Additional functions include alarms, recipes, and trend analysis, enhancing the user interface and operational monitoring.
Additional FeaturesTerminals include alarm functions for process alerts, recipe functions for saving dynamic data, and trend functions for displaying PMAC analog values as curves. These features are stored in the terminal's project memory.
ConclusionCIMREX terminals offer a versatile and user-friendly interface solution for machines controlled by PMAC. The uniform programming method across models simplifies migration and adaptation to different applications.
