Custom HMI Protocol Converter
CPC Gateway HMI
A protocol converter and a full featured HMI that provides direct access to engine monitoring parameters from industrial equipment via many different protocols and memory map formats. The HMI offers all the same features of the CPC Gateway™ with the addition of an operator interface.
A Custom Remote HMI
The CPC Gateway™ HMI is an extremely flexible protocol converter and a full featured HMI that provides direct access to engine monitoring parameters from industrial equipment through many different protocols and memory map formats. The HMI offers all the same features of the CPC Gateway™ with the addition of an operator interface. It is used in applications where engine data needs to be displayed for local users and operators in addition to being accessed from a PLC or SCADA system. No intermediate devices are needed and little or no setup is required.
Each CPC Gateway HMI is customizable with Monico’s free software, MonicoView II™, allowing customers to get specific data to fit their needs, and the units have extra bright backlighting for easy viewing outdoors and are UV protected. All of our HMI products are approved for hazardous locations installations under UL1604. This unit will act as a custom HMI protocol converter, and a lot more.
Our HMI as a Custom HMI & Protocol Converter
As with all of our products, this one is a lot more than a simple protocol converter. It can be used to collect information from a myriad of devices that use multiple protocols over multiple ports and put all the information in a common format.
This HMI has a full-featured touch screen with complete graphics capability and comes preconfigured with over 400 data registers. It has a built-In web server allowing you access to your system from any location with internet availability and a SMTP/SMS Mail Server for text and email alerts on alarms and shut downs sent to your phone. Real-time data logging through a Compact Flash card lets you record and report equipment data and store that data long-term.
An HMI SCADA Solution
The CPC Gateway HMI can also provide the collected data from an engine, genset or other equipment to your SCADA System so that it can be accessed both locally and remotely. Many SCADA Systems act as a central monitoring system for an entire site, but getting text descriptions of fault codes and other information can require multiple steps and equipment. Our CPC Gateway HMI does that in one easy step and makes integrating industrial equipment into your SCADA systems simple.
