1. Introduction
Our solution for HMI (Human Machine Interface) is composed of GUI (Graphical User Interface)
based touch screens and an integrated software development package. ICP DAS hears the voices
of our customers and is dedicated to providing a series of solutions particularly for intelligent
building, equipment monitoring, factory automation and automatic controls. Its development
software, HMIWorks, provides plenty of widgets and a variety of templates. Combined with the high
resolution color touch screen of the TouchPAD series, a GUI can be realized with your own unique
fashion and style. Development is no longer difficult and project accomplishment is within reach.
ICP DAS provides two types of touch HMI devices, the TPD series and the VPD series. The TPD series
is designed for home/building automation applications and the VPD series is designed for
factory/machine automation applications. Both have many common features, such as a
high-resolution touch screen, RTC, and a variety of communication interfaces, including
RS-232/RS-485, Ethernet, USB. However, each still has its own specific features for its respective
target applications. For the TPD series, you can use an external wall box to help you smoothly blend
the TPD series device into your decoration. For the VPD series, the rubber keypad, IP-65 waterproof
front panel and DIN-Rail/panel mounting are designed for harsh environment, and are especially
suitable for factories.
