Color Touchscreen HMI Automation Controller
The X5 Prime automation controller really packs a big picture into an overall small package. With just a 4.6" x 3.5" cutout, this 4.3" wide aspect screen is very friendly, intuitive, and clear. By incorporating our hidden soft key technology, you can use the entire screen to illustrate your specific applications.
With fully integrated hardware and software, the XL Prime Series offers easier programming, installation, development and set-up. Our controllers have a small footprint and can easily retrofit into an existing system with little effort. The XL Prime Series is not limited to its on-board I/O. Many variations of distributed remote I/O such as the Horner OCS-I/O can be connected via CsCAN, Ethernet, or Modbus.
The XL Prime series utilizes microSD Data Storage Memory, ideal for data logging, machine recipes, and application files.
- Bright, 65K color graphical touch sensing LCD display
- Display of complex graphical objects including trends, gauges, meters, as well as animations, and more
- High performance graphic processing
- Advanced control capabilities including floating point, multiple auto-tuning PID loops, and also string handling capabilities
Horner PLC with Built-in I/O
In an effort to make implementing Horner OCS controllers as seamless and user-friendly as possible, we offer a streamline set of on-board I/O. Four digital inputs, four digital outputs, as well as four analog inputs make automating your applications, and your organization, as simple as the push of a (virtual) button.
When it comes to speed, resolution, and technical capabilities, the X5 Prime is leading the way. We have developed some entirely new design techniques, a suite of capabilities similar to our more established XL Series of automation controllers, and unprecedented acceptance across an array of commercial and industrial applications. In the market of fixed I/O, web-compatible controllers, the X5 Prime is unmatched.
- Full featured, built-in I/O including high resolution analog, high speed counter inputs, and also PWM outputs
- Advanced high speed I/O capabilities
- Cscape programming software that allows all aspects of the X5 Prime OCS to be programmed and configured from one integrated application
- On board Ethernet port (10/100Mbps) for Cscape programming as well as application defined communication with Auto MDI / MDI-X
Superior Automation Networking
The XL Prime Series is a modular system that's ideal for easy selection and growth. CsCAN (CAN Based) high speed networking as well as Modbus RTU networking capabilities are standard in all Prime automation controller series. Moreover, Ethernet is standard in XL Prime Series controllers and available as an optional component in all other models. Remote I/O options offer high performance, accurate analog, and easy-to-configure digital only modules. Horner I/O, however, has flexible communication options that easily expand current systems.
- removable media for FAT32 format (up to 2TB) of storage of programs, data logging, as well as screen captures
- CsCAN networking port for communication with remote I/O, other controllers, or also PCs
- high speed USB port for communication with PCs and programming of controller
- configurable serial protocols for communication to drives, PLCs, as well as other serial peripherals
White Label PLC Automation Controller for OEMs
The XL Prime automation controller series is a white-label product, which means that other companies can rebrand these units. They also fit in most cabinets, console designs, and color schemes, so they can be easily integrated into many electronic products and systems. Furthermore, users can add a custom overlay to match the language, logo, and industry terms of OEMs. This gives the flexibility to use the XL Prime Series in any application.
WebMI for Remote Monitoring and Automation Control
With Horner WebMI, you can monitor and control plant data from the palm of your hand. WebMI will publish directly from the OCS Controller, allowing users to monitor or control the same or unique Web pages from a computer, tablet, or other mobile device. Thus, we bring unprecedented control to all of our controllers. Developed completely within our Cscape environment, WebMI allows for state-of-the-art HTML5 development without the need for web programming skills. The licensing and registration process is quick and simple while the benefits and affordability of WebMI will truly change your world.
