Mitsubishi Electric GOT SIMPLE Series widescreen HMIs

Mitsubishi Electric has launched two additional graphic operation terminals in its GOT SIMPLE Series range. The 10″ and 7″ widescreen models, which support virtual network computing (VNC), can be used as VNC servers enabling remote access from offices or other remote locations. This feature will help meet needs for improved work efficiencies when performing monitoring and maintenance in factories, buildings, utilities and other automation applications.

Another key feature of the latest GOT SIMPLE models is a 1.5x increase in onboard memory capacity to 15 MB, making it easier to save more screen designs. Additionally, by using an SDHC memory card, operation logs can be recorded in chronological order to achieve enhanced traceability. This can be useful for validating operations as well as troubleshooting when identifying incorrect operation or the potential root causes of problems.

The latest models in the GOT SIMPLE Series support outline fonts, offering clearer visibility of text on the screen by smoothing out edges of textual characters. This increased clarity can help prevent misreading but can also aid reading at a distance.

Since communication interfaces are another key factor for users selecting GOTs, the built-in interfaces have been enhanced. In addition to the standard GOT SIMPLE Series interfaces of Ethernet, RS-232 and RS-422, the latest units also offer RS-485 support. This facilitates the connection of a wider variety of devices, such as temperature controllers and Modbus peripherals, making it easier for users to implement connected digital manufacturing strategies in their operations.
