Operator Panel
The Operator Panel on the nanoLine is an operator interface, permitting the program to interact with the operator. Using the Operator Panel, the operator can view the state of all I/O points, registers, timers, counters, program flags and system flags. The program also sends messages to the display to provide directions or ask for information. For easy parameter entry, nanoLine Operator Panel has numeric keys (0-9), which is unique to this product. Each of the 14 keys on the Operator Panel can also used within a flow chart for custom menu creation to control projects.
To enhance this unique capability, the backlit nanoLine Operator Panel may be installed directly into the base unit, used as a simple hot-swappable, hand-held device, or mounted through a panel creating an inexpensive IP67 operator panel.
When used as a simple hand-held device a single Operator Panel can be used with any number of nanoLine controllers. The hot-swappable display also offers additional security. The Operator Panel can be connected so project parameters can be set and then removed, preventing any further changes.
