Professional display system for continuous, maintenance-free operation
The SIMATIC HMI Net Panel is multi-talented in large-scale display applications for industrial areas, because it is ideally suitable for factories and control consoles or for trade fairs and information points visited by the public.
The Net Panel is based on a reliable industrial PC of the SIMATIC IPC series and is designed for 24-hour, maintenance-free operation in an industrial environment. It is extremely flexible in operation and can be used as a stand-alone solution or in the network as a complete industrial display system comprising several Net Panels. For applications that require audio output, variants of the Net Panel are available with audio modules and speaker equipment.
Remote Control for setting up the SIMATIC HMI Net Panel
The Remote Control Software included in the scope of delivery allows the Net Panel to be operated either locally or via the network. It enables the brightness and volume to be adjusted and the backlight to be switched off.
For self-diagnosis the device temperature can be indicated. The Remote Control software allows the function to be shut down to prevent burn-in effects (anti-image sticking). The anti-image sticking function should, however, only be deactivated when adequate measures have been implemented on the Net Panel to prevent image sticking.
Remote Operate as client/server solution for industrial display systems (optional)
When Remote Operate is installed, four virtual graphics cards can be set up on one IPC and presented as extended desktops.
On every SIMATIC HMI Net Panel, a Remote Operate client is installed that is assigned to a virtual graphics card. The different screen contents are distributed to the virtual graphics adapters using the HMI software WinCC. If the Net Panel is equipped with sound, MP3 and Wave files can be sent to a specific Net Panel where they can be played, using an easily accessible function.
