3D Real parts

By adding three dimensional "Real Parts", it is easy to create beautiful value-added screens.

Switches/Lamps Visible just like a real switch or lamp, for added value to the screen.

Displaying / keyboarding of data numerical / alphanumeric.

Meters Production equipment measurements and temperatures obtained in a sensory manner.

Font for Data Display (Bitmap Font) 7 segments provided on data display for a clean look and easy visibility.

Number Entry Display Numbers entered using the numeric keypad are displayed on the keyboard created by the user to prevent incorrect-input.

Displaying / keyboarding of texts.

Text Table It is easy to switch between languages for each country. Create multi-language projects.

Expanded Use of Image Font Windows computer fonts may be used for the data display, text table, and alarm. Create a stylish and easy-to-read screen.

Automatic Font Size Adjustment Switching languages when multiple-languages are used automatically adjusts font sizes according to the size of the switches, lamps and message displays.

Alarm management.

Alarm setting/keyboarding Extended alarm monitoring entry points from 2,048 to 32,767 thanks to extended functional memory installed in GP.

Alarm displaying (from Bits, words)

Switch Blocks in Alarm Indicator Reduce time involved in screen creation and switch between alarms separated into blocks according to the device or level of importance on one alarm indicator.

Historical Trend Graph.

Chronologically display graph for CF card and USB memory. Easily analyze log of abnormal occurrences.

			Historical Trend Graph display ON/OFF -ON/OFF display for graphs required online -Display auxiliary line for upper/lower limits, etc. -Display device value and time of cursor position -Maximize/minimize graph.
			XY Graph It is possible to display points/lines of word address values, such as weight and pressure, to XY coordinates.

Animation functions.

Display Parts On/Off Set display of parts to on/off when changing display screens by device or operator.

Move/Rotate Graphics Move/rotate graphics drawings and images, etc. Reduces work involved in creating call-up screens.

Change colours You're able to change the colours of part using the animation function

Password management.

Security levels may be set for each part that can be controlled. Combined with the animation function, it is possible not to display parts that require a higher level of authority than at the logging in level.

Security Functions per Part securityonpartstext

Change Passwords Online It is possible to change passwords online. Passwords may also be changed or added using a CSV file in CF/USB memory.

Protect data assets even when exporting the system overseas.

Set Passwords inside the Project Files It is possible to set passwords for each screen or script to prevent the outflow of information from the system.

Operation log.

Obtain operator's control log by part. Monitor necessary parts only for easy management.

The csv files can hold 10.000 entries. Create a new file when full.

Data storage on CF card.

SRAM data can be output with the sampling print function. CSV data on a CF card can be output with a CSV display.

The logging function increases the efficiency of documentation. The PLC data can be saved to the CF card in the main unit and printed out directly from the main unit. This function can be used to create daily and monthly reports, or other documents.

Data export --->PC.

The logging function increases the efficiency of documentation. Collect work records on computer connected to the Ethernet. Operating instructions, such as recipes, can be sent from a comupter to GP.

Multi-drivers simultaneously.

Communicate with up to four types of devices

mulltidriver Communicate simultaneously with 4 devices and manage all information with one unit. Pro-face is the leader in the number of communication drivers supported.

Logic program integrated with screen management.

 

Logic Program

GP-Pro EX can also be used to create screen display programs created using PLC. Lamp flicker andd data computing programs, etc..., Are included.

Editing is easy! Additional connection device specifications: You can use the addresses of externally connected equipment for address specification from the logic side, and easily interlock. Block-structured Subroutine Initialization logic, main logic and subroutines can be blocked, enabling smooth editing. Drag & Drop You only have to drag & drop parts on the drawing screen and the logic screen. Number of steps displayed You can see the size of a program easily with the number of steps displayed. The norm of 15,000 steps has been increased to 60,000 steps for an extended program area. The internal memory is reduced to 1MB for 60,000 steps (screen data). Tip Display for Comments Displaying comments as tips makes a program clear. Comments can be displayed at any time.

Simulation.

Implement a quasi-environment connected to PLC on your PC. Prevents mistakes by confirming Debug before transfer.

Screen View View screens while editing, and use the mouse to control or confirm parts

Address View Simultaneously display and edit present address value of virtually connected devices. Link the screen view and logic view, for intuitive debug.

I/O View Verify address allocated at I/O terminal for additional external I/O. It is possible to switch input ON/OFF and update present values.

Logic View Logic View Used to debug logic program, it is possible to confirm that symbol parameters are ON/OFF and confirm the present value.
