New generation of HMIs
08 October 2017
The new CR1000 and CR3000 HMIs from Red Lion Controls are available in a broad range of sizes, from 4.3 inches up to 15 inches and feature a wide array of connectivity options to address the real-world challenges of today’s multi-vendor manufacturing environments.

These HMIs provide the ability to quickly interconnect devices from a variety of leading manufacturers thanks to the built-in and ever-expanding library of more than 300 industrial protocols available with Crimson 3.1. Updated and expanded symbol libraries and primitives with anti-aliased rendering, as well as the ability to support 16M colors, provide designers with added options for creating interfaces that deliver greater visual effectiveness with a more natural appearance, resulting in screens that accelerate operator learning and enable greater comprehension of on-screen information, symbols and messaging.
With a built-in web server, the CR3000 allows users to securely monitor and control their application via PCs, tablets or smartphones. SMS text messaging and email alerts provide early warning of process issues, which helps to avoid costly downtime.
