Features

• 32-bit RISC Processor - Touch the screen and you can feel the power of the fastest RISC-processor used in any touch-screen on the market.The EasyView MT8 series offers high performance features for the Industrial Environment. Even the most complicated graphics can be called up in a snap, without waiting for a slow operating system like WindowsCE to load and respond.
• Bright High-Resolution Colour TFT display - 65,536 (16-bit) TFT colour displays provide finer lines and vivid colours, with fast and smooth screen changes without flashing. Clearly exhibit your images, text and dynamic GIF files.
• Compact Flash Card - A standard CF slot is provided to improve effiency when using recipe files, data logging and project changes, as well as to simplfy data processing.
• EtherNet - The MT8 series supports devices such as Allen-Bradley, Siemens & DirectLogic PLC's which offer the EtherNet/IP protocol, as it allows users to integrate multiple PLC's and panels into a high speed network, with greater data throughput and higher security.
• High-Reliability Touch Panel - An industrial grade analogue resistive touch screen is a feature of all EasyView panels that provide infinite touch resolution. They are protected by a very hard coating for long life and reliability.
• Three USB 2.0 Interface - provide for easy project up/down load, and data storage plus connection to printer, bar code reader, mouse/tracker ball and a variety of USB devices. (2x USB for MT6)
• Serial Interface - Each MT8 panel is equiped with three serial ports, which can drive up to 3 PLC's, controllers or networks simultaneously. (RS232 printers also supported).
• Sound Output - Send out audible alarms to an amplifier/speaker combination to alert operators to screen alarms.
• NEW MT-8X series based on X86 Processor

Multiple MT8/PLCs

Can be connected as an Ethernet 10/100 base-T network, allowing several MT8's on the network to exchange data at high speed.
One MT8 can then access data from any other MT8, and new projects, recipies, settings or data can be quickly downloaded.
In recent years related technologies within manufacturing have evolved and improved, and the automation and control industries have become heavily involved in networking at all levels. The MT8 series has been developed around this new technology to provide the benefits of shorter response time, greater data throughput and higher security than other protocols based on Industrial Ethernet.
