Many pre-configured sample screen for immediate use
A variety of ready-made sample parts are available for download. Sample parts can be used immediately after download, which lets you significantly reduce time spent on screen design.
Connect to a wide range of control equipment
Pro-face HMIs support connection with a wide range of industrial controllers including PLCs, motion controllers, robots, and other devices.
*Only for units with Ethernet.
*Only for LT4000M Series.
*Only for LT4000M Series.
CANopen Networking
The LT4000M provides data exchange with various remote devices via CANopen for an economical and user-friendly system design. Choose between standard I/O modules or more sophisticated products such as motion or control for complex applications.
Enhanced Recipe function
With the conventional recipe function, all recipe data must be stored at continuous addresses. The new recipe function allows writing random addresses and multiple data formats as a recipe.
CSV data transfer function
Since the CSV data stored in the USB memory/SD card can be edited, the recipe data can easily be carried for performing updates on-site. The alarm message can be easily changed with CSV files only.
Sampling in different device formats
Text, bits, and variables that could only be set for devices as numeric values can now be mixed. Connected devices + internal addresses can also be set.
Utilize Siemens PLC's tag and improve efficiency
As the tag information of STEP7 Project Files created by Siemens PLC can be imported to GP-Pro EX screen data, you can reduce the man-hours for screen creation.
Tag Import
See the following manual for the data type which can be imported.

Manageable
Compact Size
The crisp display let you create easy-to-read yet detailed operation screens. The integrated control functionality provides Digital I/O, Analog I/O, and Analog temperature inputs as well as USB, serial, and Ethernet communication ports.
Easily verify and debug projects with GP-Pro EX
GP-Pro EX Simulation is an off-line simulation function which enables verification of screens, logic programs, and program operation without connecting to an HMI.
Easily connect to the production site from the office
Use remote monitoring software, GP-Viewer* or data management software, Pro-Server EX* to easily monitor and control HMI screens on the production site, or distribute instruction data and collect real-time production data.
*Requires separate license.
Pro-face Remote HMI
The natural link between the process and your tablet or smartphone. By adding the APP true mobile operation will be possible without loss of operability. Confirm the cause of an error directly with your mobile device and see if the machine can be put back into operation without going on site.
Pro-Server EX
Collect information of operation progress on a PC via Ethernet network. Download operating instructions, such as recipes, from an office PC to a GP.
*Purchase of a separate license is required.
GP-Viewer EX
The screen of theHMI on the site can be monitored from a PC at a remote location.
*Purchase of a separate license is required.
Searching/sorting alarm and sampling history
Easy ascending/descending sorting and conditional search using symbols such as =, > or < of Alarm Part and Sampling Display.
Analyze problem causes easily with historical trend graphs
GP-Pro EX provides the ability to display error logs in graph form, making it easy to analyze the causes of a problem.
Supported features include enlarged/reduced display, auxiliary line display for upper and lower limits, and XY scatter graphs.

Alarm Analysis function
When an error occurs, an operator can easily seek and check the condition on-site, just by touching the alarm message to call up various error-related data in chronological order. An alarm analysis screen with timing chart of alarm-related device addresses can be simply configured only through a few steps on GP-Pro EX software for easy troubleshooting, debugging and/or design changes of production equipment to reduce downtime for enhanced productivity.
Sampling Data - Collecting various data during production
Temperature, voltage, and other desired address values can be stored in the GP. Data and times can be confirmed on the sampling display.
Historical Trend Graph - Displaying data in an easy-to-see graph
The change in the collected data over time is displayed in an easy-to-understand form with a graph. The graph can be traced back to see the past data.
Operation Log - Recording the operator's operation
Operations are saved to a log, so you can see who did what, and when. The log can also be used for a trend analysis of erroneous operation of operators.
