HMI with Dual Can Bus and COM Ports

[simplytuff]

Hi All,

I am looking to replace a Lenze HMI installed on a Monfort Stenter machine in textile industry, The HMI have dual Can BUS and Dual Com Ports. Can anyone suggest an alternative HMI with similar port configuration. See picture attached for detail

The Red Lion Graphite series has CAN modules that you can add to the HMI.

The Beijer IX has 4 com ports,ether net and a dual CAN module can be added.

Is the HMI truly on 2 separate CAN networks or are the two connectors just for ease of wiring through the device?

Hello Norm
Yes - two distinct ports. Incidentally, these are in addition to the 4 serial ports already there.
Enough to keep most people busy!
