The COMPACT MMI P120 from B&R is an inexpensive, powerful, space saving and extremely universal operator interface panel. It has the comfort of PANELWARE for picture creation and the memory capacity for all pictures and text to keep the load off of the controller. Picture creation and organizing the operational sequence is all done with PANELWARE Configuration Software (PCS). PANELWARE data is stored within the local EEPROM of the COMPACT MMI and is processed from there. Communication with the PLC is handled through the MININET protocol.
