Easy to operate and observe
The TP 070 enables operating statuses and current process values concerning a
connected PLC to be displayed textually or graphically and the relevant machine or
system to be easily monitored and operated. Display and operation of the TP 070
can be adapted optimally for the respective process requirements by using the
STEP 7-Micro/WIN 32 (from version 3.1) and STEP 7-Micro/WIN 32 Toolbox (from
version 1.0) configuration software.
The TP 070 can be used to:
control and monitor the process intuitively. Setpoint values or control element
settings, for instance, can be modified by entering values or touching configured
buttons;
display processes, machines and systems graphically;
visualize process tags, e.g. in output fields, status displays or bar graphs;
intervene directly in the operation by means of the touch–sensitive screen.
