Typical Applications

HMI

Use LabVIEW to quickly create custom graphical user interfaces (GUIs)

incorporating high-resolution graphics. With LabVIEW, the PPC-2015

becomes a powerful HMI.

HMI with PCI-Based I/O

Add up to two multifunction DAQ, industrial digital I/O, or industrial vision

boards to create a monitoring and control system. Choose from a broad

selection of PCI plug-in board options to address monitoring and control

applications typically beyond the range of standard PLC-based functionality.

HMI with Industrial Distributed I/O

With LabVIEW and the LabVIEW Datalogging and Supervisory Control

Module, you can create a supervisory control and data acquisition

(SCADA) system using FieldPoint or Compact FieldPoint distributed I/O.

Incorporate Ethernet switches from National Instruments Alliance Partners

to integrate plant-floor devices connected to industrial field buses

(for example, DeviceNet). In plant-wide SCADA systems, the PPC-2015

functions as the local HMI device and as a data concentrator that shares

data in real time throughout the enterprise.

HMI with Integrated Motion Control

Add motion to your HMI-based system with plug-in PCI motion boards

and integrate NI motion controllers with NI motion drivers for LabVIEW.

The PPC-2015 functions as the development platform, system controller,

and HMI for simple single-axis or more complex multiaxis motion

control applications.
