Intuitive user interface<\/strong><\/p>\n

Use the intuitive web-based user interface to easily configure the Communicator using drag-and-drop functionality or to analyze live data, export log files, and generate support packages.<
\n\/p>Cybersecurity<\/strong><\/p>\n

Secure boot protects against malware, while a safety switch locks configurations to prevent unauthorized changes. Ports used in production are deactivated to add another layer of security. <\/p>\n

High performance<\/strong><\/p>\n

Powered by the award-winning NP40 network processor and high-end components, the Communicator meets the ever-growing needs that demand more data be transferred faster.<\/p>\n

Optimized hardware design<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Communicator has forward-facing ports and is designed for DIN rail and IP20 mounting, allowing you to easily install it close to connected devices, reducing cabling requirements.<\/p>\n

Instant data transfer<\/strong><\/p>\n

Instant data transfer allows you to take advantage of high-speed industrial networks, as the Communicator provides hardware acceleration via endian conversion (byte swapping), saving processing time on the PLC.<\/p>\n

5-year warranty<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Communicator is made to be durable and have a long service life. We are so confident in its quality that we offer a 5-year warranty. <\/p>\n

Ensures uptime<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thanks to carefully selected industrial components, the Communicator operates reliably in harsh industrial environments, ensuring uptime and long life.<\/p>\n

Instant diagnostics<\/strong><\/p>\n

The user interface displays the connection status in real time and the I\/O data mapping for easy troubleshooting. Easily generate a support file containing all the necessary information. <\/p>\n

Brand labeling<\/strong><\/p>\n

Preconfigure the Communicator and customize the hardware and user interface with your colors and logos.<\/p>\n

Lifecycle management<\/strong><\/p>\n

HMS maintains every part of the Communicator, including network updates, throughout the product lifecycle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
