Additional Information
C-more Micro touch panels provide graphics and operator interaction for even the smallest control systems. The C-more Micro is a low cost panel offering a 3-, 4-, 6-, 8- or 10-inch screen to display graphics as well as text. Touch screen and non-touch screen panel versions are available.

HMIs provide operators with visual displays of system data for easy monitoring and control of automated systems. C-more Micro text and touch panels are packed with features yet priced for the tightest of budgets. With screens as large as 10 inches, C-more Micro panels can easily display text, graphics, and bitmaps to effectively communicate critical data to the operator.
