LAUER PCS950 Rismat Label Operator Panel PG 950.100.6

General Description

The LAUER PCS950 with Rismat Label (version PG 950.100.6, reference 190595) is a high‑performance operator panel originally configured for Rismat machinery. It features a large 10.4‑inch graphic display, a comprehensive keypad, and extensive communication capabilities. The panel is fully compatible with the standard LAUER PCS950 series and can be adapted for general‑purpose HMI applications in various industries.

Display and Graphics

The panel is equipped with a 10.4‑inch TFT colour display with SVGA resolution (800 x 600) and a bright LED backlight (500 cd/m²). The screen offers a wide viewing angle (80° all directions) and a contrast ratio of 500:1. It supports full‑colour graphics, including trend charts, bar graphs, and animated symbols. An optional resistive touchscreen is available (not standard).

Keypad and Operator Input

The front panel includes a 28‑key membrane keypad: numeric block (0‑9), decimal, sign, and 16 programmable function keys (F1‑F16) with integrated LEDs. All keys are backlit and rated for 1 million operations. The overlay is IP65 rated for water and dust protection.

Communication Interfaces

• Serial Ports: 2x RS‑232 (9‑pin), one configurable as RS‑485.

• Ethernet: 10/100 Base‑T (RJ45) for network connectivity.

• USB: 1x USB 1.1 (Type‑A) for data transfer.

• Profibus DP (optional): Plug‑in module.

• Printer Port: Parallel (Centronics) for direct printing.

Memory and Data Management

Memory includes 4 MB flash for up to 1000 screens, 1 MB SRAM for variables and alarms, and support for 2000 registers. The panel handles 500 alarms with history logging (battery‑backed), 100 recipes with 200 parameters each, and 20 trend channels. An SD card slot is optional for data logging.

Electrical and Mechanical Specifications

• Power Supply: 24 V DC ±15 %, 800 mA max.

• Operating Temperature: 0 °C to 50 °C.

• Storage Temperature: –20 °C to 70 °C.

• Humidity: 10 – 90 % RH (non‑condensing).

• Housing: Die‑cast aluminium, front IP65, rear IP20.

• Mounting: Panel‑mount with clamps (cut‑out 270 mm x 200 mm).

• Dimensions: 300 mm x 230 mm x 65 mm.

• Weight: 3.2 kg.

Configuration and Software

The panel is programmed using LAUER PCS‑Config (version 5.0 or higher). The software provides a rich screen editor, tag database, communication driver selection, and simulation mode. It supports multi‑language text (up to 10 languages). The project is downloaded via Ethernet or serial. Remote access via VNC is supported.

Installation and Commissioning

Mount the panel in the cabinet, connect power and communication cables. Power on – the panel boots and runs the application (if pre‑loaded). Otherwise, download the project. Calibrate the touchscreen if fitted. Test all keys and communication.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Clean the screen with a soft cloth. Replace the internal battery (CR2032) every 5 years. The cooling fan (if present) should be checked for dust. Common faults: “No Ethernet” – check cable and IP; “Application Not Starting” – reload project.

Compatibility and Ordering

The Rismat Label version (PG 950.100.6) is hardware‑identical to the standard PCS950. It can be re‑programmed for any application. Reference 190595 ensures correct revision. Order with required communication options.
