The MobileView tethered operator interface is suitable for maintenance tasks, machine setup or calibration activities, and other HMI applications that require the operator to see the machine. The inclusion of a hardwired e-stop button and three-position enabling switch also supports applications that require local safety functionality.
The interface complements the Allen-Bradley PanelView graphic terminals, giving manufacturers and industrial operators a range of fixed and mobile terminals for different applications. It also uses the FactoryTalk View Machine Edition HMI software from Rockwell, allowing users to develop and re-use their software applications across the MobileView and PanelView platforms.
Three cable-length options, ranging from 16.4 to 49.2ft, give flexibility for different machines and production lines. The interface uses a 10in display with resistive touch screen, 2GByte internal SD card for application storage, and USB 2.0 port for high-speed data transfer.
