1. The difference between human-machine interface and configuration software

Human-machine interface products, often referred to as "touch screen", include HMI hardware and the corresponding special screen configuration software, in general, HMI hardware of different manufacturers use different screen configuration software, and the primary equipment variety is PLC.

Configuration software is a general software product running in the PC hardware channel and windows operating system, and can also form HMI products together with PC or industrial computer; There are many kinds of equipment supported by general configuration software, such as various PLCs, PC boards, appearances, inverters, modules and other equipment, and because the hardware channel performance of the PC is strong (mainly reflected in the speed and storage capacity), the function of the general configuration software is also much stronger, which is suitable for large-scale monitoring systems.

2. Whether there is an operating system in the human-machine interface product

Any human-machine interface product has a system software part, and the system software runs in the processor of the HMI to support the multitasking function, and the processor needs to have a small operating system management system software operation. According to the high-performance human-machine interface products of tablet computers, general embedded operating systems such as WinCE and Linux are generally used.

3. Can the human-machine interface only be connected to the PLC?

That's not true. Human-computer interface products occur in order to solve the human-computer interaction problem of PLC, but with the development of computer skills and digital circuit skills, many industrial control equipment have serial port communication capabilities, so only industrial control equipment with serial port communication capabilities, such as frequency converters, DC governors, temperature control surfaces, data acquisition modules, etc., can be connected to human-computer interface products to realize human-computer interaction functions.
