Vision1040by UnitronicsThe Vision1040™ is a powerful PLC with a built-in HMI Operator Panel comprising a 10.4” colour touch-screen and nine 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 Vision1040™ 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. In addition this is the first Vision controller to comprise a USB programming port. 2MB Ladder code application memory (plus 32MB for images and 1MB for fonts) enable the Vision1040™ to run complex control and automation tasks. The 16-bit 65,000-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, high-speed, temperature & weight measurement Application Logic: 2MB ; Fonts: 1MB ; Images: 32MB Scan time: 9µsec per 1K of typical application Auto-tune PID, up to 24 independent loops Recipe programs and datalogging via Data Tables Micro SD card - log, backup, clone, & more Time-based control in 3 clicks HMI 10.4", 16 bit 65,000-Colour Touchscreen, Resolution 800 x 600 (SVGA) TFT display ‘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 White LED illuminated screen Image library containing hundreds of images Info mode: view/modify I/O status, integer values, and system data via the panel HMI graphs - colour-code Trends Built-in alarm screens Text String Library—easy localization Troubleshoot via the HMI panel—no PC needed Communications Two isolated RS232/RS485 ports Ethernet via TCP/IP GSM/SMS support Remote Access utilities MODBUS (master/slave) CANbus and UniCAN OPC/DDE server Additional communication protocols Web server: Use built-in HTML pages, or design complex pages to view and edit PLC data via the Internet Send e-mail function GPRS/GSM/CDMA enabled MODBUS protocol support CANbus: CANopen, UniCAN, SAE J1939 and more DF1 Slave Ports: supplied with 2 isolated RS232/RS485 ,1 CANbus, 1 USB programming port; 1 port may be added for serial/Ethernet Special Features Flexible PID: Up to 20 built-in PID loops, including internal auto-tune, ramp-soak programmer and bumpless transfer. Use Vision1040™ 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 (touchscreen): Press the touchscreen for a few seconds to enter the PLC’s Information Mode, providing you with powerful diagnostic capabilities. Shaft-encoder Inputs: Use the controller’s integral 10kHz inputs as high-speed counters, frequency measurers, or to directly connect to shaft-encoders. PWM Outputs: Control stepper motors or PID-based applications, via PWM, with the Vision's onboard PWM outputs (up to 50 kHz for npn). Virtual Keypad: Application requires data entry? The Vision's virtual keypad pops up automatically. Software 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. Use the Ladder editor to: Click-and-drop Ladder elements Build modular programs; create subroutines and call them into your program Benefit from built-in function blocks such as Trends, PID, Loadcell, GPRS, Drum Sequencer, MODBUS Serial/IP, SMS, Protocol Serial/TCP/IP Use the HMI editor to: Assign "Touch" properties to any screen element Create and conditionally display operator messages that contain text and images Use colour images and graphs to reflect current variable values and historical trends Assign functions to softkeys and touchscreen elements Creat a multilingual interface, that enables instant language switching via the HMI Available DownloadsUnitronics - V1040 Installation Guide Unitronics - V1040 Specifications Unitronics - V1040 Technical Drawings
