HONEYWELL HCiX series touch panel operation interface

3. Printer support

The HCIX series supports connecting printers through RS-232 or USB interfaces, and supports PCL Level 3 language for real-time printing of alarm information, production data, and reports.

Software and Design Tools

1. XDesignerPlus design software

The HCIX series comes standard with XDesignerPlus design software, which allows users to create custom graphical interfaces. The software provides rich design objects, including:

Numerical display and input

Indicator lights and message boxes

Alarm List and Historical Records

Graphic animation and sliding windows

Multi language switching (supports English, Korean, Chinese, and Windows system fonts)

These objects do not require complex register address configuration, and users can complete project development through an intuitive graphical interface, greatly improving engineering efficiency.

2. Data management function

HCIX can achieve the following data management functions through CF card, SD card or USB storage:

Real time data recording

Import and export of formula data

System configuration backup and recovery

Font and operating system updates

The data is stored in CSV format for easy data processing and analysis on the PC end.

PLC connection compatibility

The HCIX series supports direct connection with various mainstream PLC systems, covering the following brands and series:

Honeywell: GH1000/500, HC900, Master Logic series

Modicon (Schneider): Modbus, 984, TWIDO series

Rockwell (AB): PLC5, SLC500, ControlLogix series

Siemens: SIMATIC S7-300 series

BACnet, Profibus DP and other protocols support

Supports connection through CPU communication ports or dedicated communication interface modules, and supports 1: N multi station communication, making it easy to build a distributed monitoring system.

Model code and selection guidance

The HCIX series models adopt a structured coding method, and users can choose based on the following dimensions:

Display size: 4.3 ", 5.7", 7 ", 8.4", 10.2 ", 10.4", 12.1 ", 15.0"

LCD type: monochrome (M) or TFT color (Q)

Communication configuration: Standard (T) or Compact (V)

Power type: 24 Vdc (D) or 85-264 Vac (A)

Communication options: Profibus, DeviceNet, CC Link, etc

When selecting, attention should be paid to the differences in Flash capacity, communication interfaces, expansion slots, and other aspects among different models to ensure that they meet practical application requirements.
