New programmable Saia®Micro-Browser
Web Panel
The integrated logic controller can be freely pro-
grammed using the Saia® PG5 software tool to im-
plement a simple control applications with complex
HMI functions. With its integrated automation server,
generous storage and multiple communication op-
tions, this panel is primarily a management station
and data concentrator.
The programmable panels are also based on the new
ST3-CPU platform. The powerful ColdFire processor
with 240 MHz clock frequency CF 5373 allows simul-
taneous processing of PG5 complex control tasks and
HMI functions.
The control tasks are handled with a minimum cycle
time of 100 ms. As usual with a control panel, the
programmable web panel features a battery-backed
SRAM memory for PCD-media and a real time clock.
It also includes a generous onboard flash file system
for storing web pages and data.
Process signals can be connected with smart RIOs via
Ethernet to the logic controller. The basic equipment
also includes an RS485 interface, which is program-
mable in the logic controller and can be used freely.
Thus, for example, Saia® Energy meter with S-Bus pro-
tocol or other devices using the Modbus protocol can
be connected.
The programmable Micro-Browser panel display
sizes available are 5.7" (PCD7.D457VT5F),
10.4" (
PCD7.D410VT5F) and 12.1" (PCD7.D412DT5F).
New 12,1" TFT/SVGA Saia®Micro-Browser
Panel PCD7.D412DTPF
Meantime, the 12.1" Micro-Browser web
panel described in Control News
12
is available as a standard
item. With this panel, we are
expanding our family of
high-end microbrowsers. So
now Saia®Microbrowser panels
can now be used for tasks that previ-
ously needed a more expensive Windows
panel, even though Windows functions were
not needed.
The 12.1" Micro-Browser web panel features a high-
quality TFT display with LED backlight. The laminated
touch screen with precise 5-wire technology offers
a resolution of 800 × 600 pixels (SVGA). As with the
10.4"
panel, the 12.1" version also features an optimal
ratio between the front frame and the display size.
The laminated touch screen with a borderless front
prevents dirt from accumulating. A multi-colored
LED in the front frame displays the status of the pan-
el. It can be controlled by the user program, so that
the display status or alarm messages can be shown
even when the display is off. In addition to the USB
interface, two Ethernet ports (switch) are
included as standard equipment.
This is the first panel in which the new ST3
powerful CPU platform is used.
Thus, the panel has enough computing
power for a fast display and operation of
very large HMI pages in high SVGA reso-
lution. In addition, the 12.1" panel offers
other new useful functions and features:
–
a real-time clock (RTC) with a superca-
pacitor can be synchronized via the SNTP
protocol with network time server.
–
easy configuration of IP settings with
DHCP and DNS client functionality
–
large flash memory for efficient man-
agement of comprehensive online and
offline trending data.
The new ST3 platform is used in the further
development of the smaller 5.7" and 10.4"
Saia®Micro-Browser Web panels to give
them better performance for additional
functions.

With the SVGA resolution
and the performance of the
ST3-CPU platform, whole
HMI pages can be displayed
and used on the new 12.1"
Micro-Browser panel.

New products and perspectives.
The Saia®PCDWeb Panel portfolio will be further expanded to include larger and smaller
display sizes. There are plans for new forms and variants.
