Functional Features

The PCS950 runs Windows 10 IoT Enterprise or Linux, allowing it to host large-scale SCADA applications like WinCC, Ignition, or custom software. It includes built-in OPC UA server/client, MQTT, and SQL database connectivity. The panel supports dual independent displays (via HDMI and DP). The PCIe slot can accommodate fieldbus cards (Profibus, EtherCAT, Powerlink) or wireless modules (Wi-Fi 6, 5G).

The unit includes a hardware watchdog, temperature and voltage monitoring, and remote power management. It also features a TPM 2.0 module for security. The touchscreen supports glove and wet-finger operation. The SSD ensures fast boot and data integrity. Data logging capacity is virtually unlimited with external storage.

Configuration and development can be done with any standard tool, including Lauer Configurator Pro, Visual Studio, or Codesys. The panel also supports remote desktop, VNC, and web-based dashboards.

Installation Guidelines

Mount the panel securely using the VESA mount or panel clamps. Ensure proper grounding. Use a separate power filter if needed. Connect all communication cables with strain relief. For the PCIe module, install before power-up. Provide at least 100 mm clearance behind for ventilation.
