Red Lion expands CR3000 HMI platform

By OEM Update Editorial November 13, 2018 3:20 am IST

Red Lion Controls has expanded its CR3000 Human Machine Interface (HMI) operator panel capabilities with five new communication modules, offering support for some of today’s most popular industrial protocols. Designed for use with the CR3000 HMI platform, the plug-in modules provide the connectivity customers need to add powerful monitoring and control functionality to their automation systems.

Red Lion’s new modules support the rising demand for device interoperability, allowing customers to leverage Red Lion’s CR3000 HMIs – with built-in protocol conversion and 300+ communications drivers – to support virtually any automation equipment.

Combining an HSPA+ cellular module with a CR3000 HMI provides customers with a powerful solution to cost-effectively monitor and control remote equipment. The use of high-speed cellular networks eliminates expensive site visits and allows users to receive critical device and performance data in real time, saving time and money. The PROFIBUS DP module adds PROFIBUS DP slave support while the DeviceNet module allows the HMI to perform as a DeviceNet Group 2 server.
