PPMA SHOW PREVIEW A FLEXIBLE SOLUTION LAMONDE CMT+CODESYS cMT HMI with built-in CODESYS is a high- performance HMI with an onboard PLC in compliance with the IEC 61131-3 standard. Combining a cMT+CODESYS HMI with the new Weintek iR Series I/O Modules delivers a new generation solution delivering a more compact and flexible architecture. The CODESYS licence can currently be added to the cMT3151, cMT3090 and cMT3072 models (an OS firmware upgrade may be required for existing models). cMT+CODESYS is a product that integrates high-performance cMT Series HMI with CODESYS PLC controller system, which is built upon an innovative architecture where a dual-core CPU runs 2 independent operating systems. With the multi-core processor, cMT+CODESYS is able to not only provide data visualization with an operable user interface but also runs controller logic. 54 PECM Issue 34 The two systems run independently without interference. The cMT+CODESYS HMI boast Weintek’s advanced graphical UI and advanced integration features (direct database access, OPC UA, and MQTT), and the CODESYS controller system in compliance with IEC61131-3 supports multiple languages (FBD/LD/IL/ST/SFC/CFC) optimizing development flexibility. cMT+CODESYS uses a unique internal communication channel, to allow the display unit to quickly obtain control information from CODESYS, while at the same time aiding the CODESYS controller system in connecting to other systems such as databases and 3rd party controllers. In addition, cMT+CODESYS is equipped with dedicated Ethernet and CAN bus interfaces which allow for stable and highly efficient data transmission to satisfy miscellaneous automation demands. The iR Series I/O modules are a brand- new series of Weintek products – by using i/o couplers supporting different bus systems: CANopen or MODBUS TCP/IP, this modularized i/o system is compatible with most existing control systems. A patented fixture clip makes it easy to connect many I/O modules and prevents modules from separating off due to vibration or shock. Flexible module assembly helps avoid unnecessary nodes and reduces overall costs. Additionally, iR Series patented iBus technology is strong in noise resistance and efficient in communication ensuring accurate and timely update of I/O status. cMT+CODESYS can be used with CANopen or MODBUS TCP/IP I/O modules from other manufacturers other than iR series I/O modules.
