GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The G315C Operator Interface combines powerful features normally found
only in PC-based HMIs, with the reliability of a dedicated operating system. It
is built around a high performance core with integrated features, allowing it to
provide SCADA-like functionality at a fraction of the cost.
The G315C is able to act as a multiple protocol converter using four high-
speed RS232/422/485 communications ports and an Ethernet 10/100 Base-TX
port. The Ethernet port supports up to four protocols simultaneously, allowing
dissimilar Ethernet based products to communicate with one another.
The G315C's USB port allows fast downloads of configuration files and
access to trending and data logging. A CompactFlash socket is provided so that
standard ComplactFlash cards can be used to collect your trending and data
logging information as well as to store configuration files. The built-in web
server allows processes to be controlled remotely.
The G315C's large, high-resolution display allows users to easily view and
enter information. Data can be manipulated through the touchscreen and/or the
10-button keypad.
SAFETY SUMMARY
All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in the
manual or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal safety and to
prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment connected to it. If
equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection
provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Do not use the controller to directly command motors, valves, or other
actuators not equipped with safeguards. To do so can be potentially harmful to
persons or equipment in the event of a fault to the controller.
