Need HMI Units To Connect To Wonderware InTouch®?

Sometimes running Wonderware InTouch® on an Industrial PC is overkill for simple data collection. Now you can distribute dedicated HMI units in convenient locations and still collect the process data you need. The free Pro-face GP I/O Server application opens HMIs to communicate with Wonderware Intouch®.

Connect up to 60 Pro-face units (GP, AGP, or ST) to one PC running Wonderware InTouch®. Save money by eliminating the need for costly InTouch® enabled Industrial PCs where operator interface units will do the job just fine. GP I/O Server is easy to configure. You can even network some serial devices by using the Pro-face Operator Interface to communicate to your serial device, then using the Ethernet port on the Pro-face to transfer data to InTouch®.

To find out more please contact your Pro-face Sales Representative or Area Manager. You can also download the Pro-face GP IO Server datasheet and Pro- face GP IO Server for InTouch Manual v1.01 from the Pro-face America web site.
