2 WindO/I-NV2 Overview
Preparations
Before creating a screen for the OITouchscreen using WindO/I-NV2 software, you will need
the following:
If the OI Touchscreen will be configured to communicate with a host (ie. PLC), then you will
also need the following:
(1) WindO/I-NV2 Software
Part Number: HG9Y-ZSS2W
(2) PC
*1
To use a PC that does not have a COM
port, use a commercially available
USB-RS232C converter.
Part Number: FC4A-USB
*1: For PC system requirements, refer to page 44 (back cover).
(3) Programming Cable for the
OI Touchscreen
Part Number: HG9Z-XCM1A
or FC2A-KC4C
(4) Operator Interface
*2
Example Part Number:
HG2F-SS22VCF
*2: To supply power to the Operator Interface, a 24 V DC power supply is required.
(5) Programmable Controller
(PLC)
Example: MicroSmart
(6) Communication Cable
(between the MicroSmart & OI)
Example: FC4A-KC2CA
