UniOP MKDR-04-004 Control Unit Panel

MKDR-04 – Industrial PLC Workstation

4 line x 40 Character LCD

Links Directly to PLC Programming Port

28K Internal EPROM

The MKDR04 fulfills the need for a powerful yet cost effective operator interface system. Displays are

four lines and LCD. Each line can contain up to 40 characters. Each page can contain up to 32. which

can be accessed by scrolling with the arrow keys. The MKDR04 LCD display has a contrast control.

This control is provided to adjust the display for easy viewing under nearly any condition.

Display Variables

PLC internal variables can be shown on any of the many display pages. The number of variables that

can be viewed at one time is limited only by the display size. UniOP also provides scaling (linear con

version) of the displayed data. The final value can then be shown in several useful formats including

bargraph, date, time, decimal, bit, hexadecimal, floating point, and string. Data entry with valid range

verification is also available for each data type.

Data Entry

The integral keypad offers 45 programmable function keys (16 with user LEDs). Slide-in legends make

it easy to customize and document the operation of each key which has an LED. UniOP also features

an internal battery-backed real time clock. Time and date information from the clock are periodically

updated in the PLC to enable processing based on time-of-day, day-of-week or any other period.

Security

An eight-level password protection scheme protects critical system features from undesired access.

Alarms

UniOP can monitor and display up to 1024 alarms. Attributes and unique messages for each alarm can

be defined. Operator acknowledgment can also be required. The last 256 alarm events detected by the

UniOP are retained in an internal event list. This list can be viewed on screen or printed on a serial

printer to obtain a permanent record.

Adaptability

Custom display screens are developed using the UniOP Designer™ for Windows™ programming soft

ware. Your completed project file can be downloaded to the display through the serial port and perma

nently stored in Flash EPROM.

Keyboard Macro Editor

A feature that allows you to configure your UniOP Keys to do a variety of functions locally in the UniOP.

For example: turning pages, setting attributes, setting LEDs, writing to the PLC, going to the alarm list,

uploading or downloading a recipe set and many more. This can save many hours of ladder logic pro

gramming.

Recpies

This feature allows you to create a recipe with up to 255 parameter sets for each page of the project

file. UniOP has a total of 16K reserved for recipe storage. You can upload or download a parameter set

from or to the PLC. Once a parameter set has been downloaded to the PLC, the data contained within

the parameter set can be modified.

UniNET Network

The UniNET network allows you to design networks of varying configurations; from two panels with one

PLC to multiple panels with multiple PLCs. Data can be written to or retrieved from the PLCs in many

different locations at one time. The UniNET network creates a bridge between UniOP panels which

allows data to be shared by all PLCs in the network, regardless of the type or manufacturer.
