The MT-600/8000 series, including models MT-615X and MT-8150X, are industrial human-machine interfaces (HMIs) designed for use in various industrial environments. These devices are built to provide a user-friendly interface for controlling and monitoring industrial processes.
The MT-600/8000 series HMIs offer a range of functionalities to facilitate industrial control and monitoring. They feature touch-sensitive displays for intuitive interaction, allowing users to navigate through various screens, input data, and trigger actions. The devices support trend graphs, analog meters, bar graphs, numeric entry, switch lamps, and animation for comprehensive data visualization. Popup windows, True Type Fonts, and audio capabilities enhance the user experience. For system management, they include features like security, alarms, data block management, and hardware expansion. Communication is a core strength, with support for multiple PLCs and various communication protocols. The "Touch It, Communication Becomes Easy" slogan highlights their ease of use in connecting with control systems.
Hardware Specifications (MT615X / MT8150X):
General Specifications:
Installation Environment: The MT-600/8000 Series is designed for industrial use, with an operating temperature range of 0 to 45 °C (32 to 113 °F). While primarily for indoor use, consultation with the factory is advised for outdoor applications. The front bezel is NEMA 4 rated, ensuring protection against fluids when properly installed in a NEMA 4 panel. The devices are tested to conform to European CE requirements, indicating resistance to electrical noise, though proper wire routing and grounding are crucial for optimal operation. Users should avoid installing units in environments with severe mechanical vibration or shocks.
Mounting: The unit can be mounted into panels with a depth of 4" (105mm). A clearance of 1" (25mm) around the sides is recommended for mounting hardware and cable connections. The unit is secured using clamps provided with the product, tightened in an even pattern to achieve a waterproof effect and prevent panel deformation. Screw torque for clamping is 2.6~3.5 lbf.in. For VESA mounting, there are 4 holes on the back panel for M4 P0.7mm screws, shorter than 8.0mm, with a torque of 2.6 lbf.in. Over-tightening mounting clamps should be avoided. To meet NEMA-4 specifications, all supplied mounting clamps must be used, and the panel cannot flex more than 0.010”.
Environmental Considerations: These HMIs are intended for indoor use as built-in displays. It's crucial to ensure correct installation and adherence to operating limits. They should not be operated in areas with explosion hazards due to flammable gases, vapors, or dusts. Installation in environments with rapid temperature variations or high humidity, which can cause condensation, should also be avoided.
Power Connections: The MT-600/8000 series operates on DC power only, with a specified voltage range of 24±10% Volts DC. The internal power conditioning circuitry uses a switching power supply, with a peak starting current up to 2A. If the display does not power on within 5 seconds, power should be removed, and wiring checked. An internal fuse protects against incorrect DC power polarity and over-voltage conditions (though not guaranteed for over-voltage). DC voltage sources must provide proper isolation from main AC power. A hard-wired EMERGENCY STOP is recommended for any system using the MT-600/8000 to comply with ICS Safety Recommendations. It is advised not to power the HMI and inductive DC loads from the same power supply. Wire lengths should be minimized (Max 1600' shielded, 1000' unshielded) and run in pairs. AC, high energy, and rapidly switching DC wiring should be kept separate from signal wires. Ungrounded DC supplies should be equipped with a resistor and capacitor in parallel to earth ground for static and high-frequency dissipation. After turning the device off, a 10-second wait is recommended before turning it on again to prevent damage or sound output issues.
Grounding Requirements: Chassis ground must be used. While DC ground is not directly coupled to Earth ground internally, if necessary, an earth connection should be made from the power supply return point to a central star earth point. Ground conductors should be as short and large as possible. For CE compliance and reduced susceptibility to electrical interference, a separate #14 AWG ground wire should be run from the chassis ground terminal of the power connector directly to the central star earth connection point.
Communication Connections: The units feature multiple communication ports (COM1, COM2, COM3) supporting RS232, RS485, and RS422 protocols. Cable lengths should be restricted to less than 500' (150m) for RS485/422 devices and 50' (15m) for RS232 devices to avoid communication problems. Shielded cables are recommended for long lengths or noisy environments. Cables should not be run next to AC power lines or sources of electrical noise. The COM light on the front of the HMI will illuminate with each Ethernet communication. The USB Host port supports USB mouse, keyboard, USB Flash Drive, and printer. External hard drives require an external power supply, and the USB port should not be used to charge external devices.
Limited Liability Warranty: Weintek products, including the isolated power supply, are covered by a limited liability warranty against material and workmanship defects. This warranty does not apply if the product fails due to shipping damage, handling, storage, accident (natural or man-made), misuse (including incorrect setup, wiring, current leakage, or incorrect input power), maintenance not conforming to instructions, modification, or if the serial number has been defaced or removed.
Safety Guidelines: The manual provides recommended installation practices and procedures, emphasizing that these are guidelines as applications vary. It warns system designers that devices in Controller systems can fail, creating unsafe conditions, and electrical interference in the HMI could lead to equipment start-up, potentially causing property damage or physical injury. It advises precautions for programmable control systems, including the use of an emergency stop function independent of the programmable controller, especially where operators are exposed to machinery. Consideration should also be given to electromechanical overrides or redundant means for starting and interrupting cycles, and locks or other means to ensure only authorized personnel can change programs. These recommendations align with NEMA ICS 3-304 Control Standards. To conform with ICS Safety Recommendations, checks should be placed in the controller to ensure that all writable registers controlling critical plant parts have limit checks built into the program, with an out-of-limit safe shutdown procedure.
