Software
Available software for the PS3000 Series:
1. OPEN HMI Solution
- Use the PS3000 as an On-Demand operator interface
Use WinGP to take advantage of the Powerful HMI development tool GP-Pro EX.
WinGP software turns the Pro-face PS3000 into an on-demand Operator Interface. Use the PC to run 3rd party software such as:
SCADA
Motion Software
Vision Software
Custom Applications
SPC (Statistical Process Control)
or MRP software
...and run WinGP when required. Develop screens graphics and enable PLC communications with GP-Pro EX development software, then run them on the PC with WinGP only as needed.
2. Data Connectivy Software
- Pro-Server EX Data Management Software
Manage data from HMIs located throughout a factory and link into your existing business or SCADA system.
