HMI430\u2014Designed and priced for integration<\/strong> \u201cWith the advent of smartphones, all controller applications\u2014medical, industrial, building control\u2014are affected by the end-customers\u2019 expectation of a GUI-driven interface,\u201d noted David Stonier-Gibson, CEO of SPLat Controls. \u201cThe HMI430 with an integrated colour touchscreen enables OEMs to respond to this \u2018iEffect\u2019 and provides the innovative edge that helps small- and medium-sized equipment manufacturers make their products smarter and more competitive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Geared to address a wide range of control applications, the HMI430 offers an ideal control interface for equipment in fields as diverse as HVAC, dairy, packaging, pump control, commercial food processing, mining, health and fitness, and patient care. Early adopters have implemented HMI430 for a\u00a0microbrewery bottling machine<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0leisure spa hydrotherapy tub control<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cReduction of production costs while maintaining superior quality is an ongoing challenge for a microbrewery,\u201d confirmed Simon Ross, of MicroBrewTech Ltd in New Zealand. \u201cThe HMI430 enabled me to control and coordinate multiple processes behind an interface that was easy to understand and use. The number and variety of I\/O ports all coordinated with a simple multitasking interface enabled me as an application-focused developer to achieve much better efficiency and control. And when I ran into challenges, SPLat Controls offered exceptional customer support guiding me through development and product integration.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The HMI430 uses a 120MHz ARM\u2122 Cortex\u2122-M4F processor with hardware floating point, onboard graphics control and 512KB of flash memory for program storage. The display is supported by 8MB of flash for images and fonts. A 16MB display buffer allows glitch free re-writes. The digital outputs can directly drive relays and solenoid valves up to 500mA at 24V, and the inputs are compatible with industrial NPN type sensors. The two analog inputs provide 12-bit resolution and can measure voltage, current or temperature. There is also a 0-10V, 10-bit analog output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Integrated MultiTrack\u2122 operating system<\/strong> Communications and expansion interfaces<\/strong> Availability and pricing<\/strong> Full programming service with or without ongoing program maintenance options are available. Plus, customers gain access to a clearly defined path to migrate to a more customized controller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For more information, view the SPLat HMI430 video<\/a> or visit https:\/\/webprojects.cloud\/wordpress\/splatco\/product\/hmi430-4-3-touch-screen-controller\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n ###<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Media Contact:<\/strong> Sales Contact:<\/strong> (To download hi res, left-click the thumbnail to display the full size file, then right-click that and and Save Image<\/strong>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Press release as pdf<\/a> SPLat Controls, the SPLat logo and MultiTrack are trademarks of SPLat Controls, Pty Ltd.

SPLat lowers OEM costs with HMI430\u2014an integrated PLC with 4.3-inch touchscreen HMI430 with MultiTrack\u2122 simplifies controller programming for small- and medium-sized businesses needing touchscreen-based products…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-5372","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
With multiple serial ports HMI430 offers OEMs an ideal way to flexibly integrate a touchscreen into their solution for small- and medium-sized industrial control applications. The touchscreen\u2014a 4.3-inch 470×272 pixel screen with resistive touch and 64K colours\u2014comes with a repertoire of standard buttons, fonts, and other screen elements. With support for alpha blending, image files, and Z-ordering, HMI430 offers sophisticated visual effects at a price point that OEMs can afford.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
HMI430\u2019s\u00a0MultiTrack cooperative multitasking operating system<\/a>\u00a0offers reliable, non-stop operation, free of hazards like resource locking and priority inversion that can lead to unnecessary downtime. MultiTrack\u2019s safe, easily understood environment enables OEMs to develop sophisticated real-time applications tailored for small- and medium-business environments. A single unified application program operates both the control and the display functions, ensuring that any updates to an OEM\u2019s program only require a single download by the end user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
HMI430 offers one RS485 port and two TTL level serial ports, with built-in Modbus and the ability to implement custom protocols. A serial expansion port supports a range of existing SPLat “Xwire”\u00a0special function peripheral boards<\/a>\u00a0such as pH measurement, Internet connectivity, data logging, and temperature measurement. A new range of matching I\/O expansion boards provides additional digital I\/O, relays, and analog I\/O, and can be linked together via RS485 to create a distributed processing system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The HMI430 can be ordered now in sample quantities from the\u00a0SPLat Controls website<\/a>. Pricing starts at $329 1-off, with discounts for larger quantities. Customers can also download the free IDE, SPLat\/PC, and find full product documentation with a number of sample projects to get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\nContacts<\/h6>\n\n\n\n
