P1/P1H PowerStations

P1: A powerful display-based panel replacement alternative

CTC's 1/4 VGA PowerStation is a powerful, PC architecture hardware and HMI solution for your panel replacement applications. The Model P1 workstation includes Interact software for panel replacement and alarming, plus graphics capability. This software combination makes it easy for you to replace pushbuttons, digital meters, and other devices used in panels, eliminating the time and cost of hardwiring. The Model P1 PowerStation gives operators the information they need to more effectively monitor and control your machine or process. In addition, free-form graphics and animation capability enables you to provide a realistic representation of your application.

P1H: A "basic" HMI with only Interact Panel ToolKit and Networking Runtime software

The P1H PowerStation provides another alternative for customers seeking a low cost solution for simple push button replacement applications.

This new "basic" HMI with only Interact Panel ToolKit Runtime and Networking Runtime software is able to use 50+ Interact Drivers and is available in two models - monochrome and color. Customers can use either MachineShop or the new MachineShop Basic HMI Package (which includes only PTM) to develop P1H screens. The P1H can also be easily upgraded to a fully functional P1 by users in the field.


The P1/P1H PowerStations - a solution for any OEM application

You can use CTC's Model P1/P1H PowerStations in a wide variety of applications, such as packaging, paper, food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and petro/chemical. In addition, Interact applications are portable - so you can use the same Model P1 Interact application on any workstation or PC platform. Plus, Interact works with most control equipment; this feature is beneficial for OEMs whose equipment must support multiple PLCs.
