Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) are a great way to monitor and control #Automation. However, once they become obsolete, like some Rockwell PanelView Plus HMIs, carful consideration is needed to mitigate the risks of potentially lengthy downtime should they fail.
#ControlSystems
Bench testing PLC code is a great way of trying out new elements and functionality within the code. It allows PLC Programming to be carried out by the programmer away from live automation and often the pressures that go with it.
