Single-point programming
13 January 2014
Trio Motion Technology’s new UNIPLAY HMI touch screen displays allow machine builders and OEMs to develop applications faster and with increased simplicity by sharing motion control and graphical user interface programming in a single easy-to-use integrated software environment.

The 7” and 10” high contrast colour displays combine with all Trio MC4 Motion Coordinator multi-axis motion and machine controllers and the Motion Perfect v3 (MPv3) application development, configuration and connectivity software for drag and drop creation of versatile user interface screens that are transferred to the HMI via its Ethernet connection at runtime.
Creating screens inside MPv3 is made easy by dragging a series of preloaded scalable objects such as buttons, labels and text or numeric entry boxes to an HMI page with right click keystrokes that customise the objects - assigning values, colours and actions etc.
