Compact Machine Controller

    June 3, 2004
    TwidoPack is a combination Twido nanocontroller and Magelis XBT-N text-based HMI display that targets applications in small machines.

    COMPACT MACHINE CONTROLLER

    New TwidoSoft V2.0 software adds data capacity, improved process control with up to 14 configurable PID loops, and built-in USB port and modem communications management for remote monitoring. The ultracompact nanocontroller can manage more than 1,000 I/O points by virtue of a new master module. The Magelis XBT-N is rated both NEMA 4X for outdoor use and UL Class 1, Div. 2 for hazardous locations. It is just 78-mm deep because it does not need a separate power supply. The display also incorporates diagnostics and distributed communications capabilities.
