Low cost HMI
January 1st 2005

The PA PowerStation is a range of low cost human machine interfaces (HMIs) available in 5, 6, 8 and 10in screen versions. The range is made by CTC Parker Automation and available in the UK from AJM Automation.

Units are centred around a colour touchscreen and combine the connectivity, functionality and expandability of Parker’s Interact HMI software with standard hardware features such as CompactFlash storage, RS-232, RS- 422/485 and 100BaseT Ethernet ports. Built-in features include panel tools, graphics, alarming and networking modules.

Further software modules allow the PA PowerStation units to be adapted and expanded to meet specific application requirements.

At the heart of all units is a 200MHz CPU and a 32MB capacity system memory.
