Introducing the XPC PowerStation Family from Parker
Milford, Ohio, March 14, 2008 - Parker's Electromechanical Automaton Division, a leading supplier of motion control technology, announces the release of a new, affordable industrial PC solution that offers three different configuration options in one rugged package. The CTC-brand XPC PowerStations are available in 6", 8" 10.4" and 15" display sizes, with a no display option coming soon. Designed to complement our popular Interact Xpress(TM) and XPR PowerStations as an Easy Config client, the XPC PowerStations are also available with a general purpose Windows® CE or Windows XP operating system.
When ordered with the Windows CE operating system option, the XPC PowerStations always include a dedicated Interact Xpress client application for use with our distributed HMI solution. This client provides "IP Config and Go" ease of use, allowing you to simply enter the IP configuration information for the unit and its host XPR PowerStation and be running your distributed HMI application in minutes! "Parker's distributed HMI solution allows for easier development, configuration, maintenance and support in HMI applications where more than one screen is required or where remote support is important," says Andy Balderson, product manager for Parker's CTC products. "Moreover, Interact Xpress leverages the power of the Internet, allowing you to run and edit your HMI applications in any Internet Explorer browser."
The XPC PowerStations provide instant client configuration and allow a single Xpress application to be hosted and run in independent sessions across multiple clients.
The XPC PowerStation family provides a rugged, high-availability industrial computer platform for custom applications as well. Every XPC PowerStation is available with your choice of Windows CE 5.0 or Windows XP Pro operating system and includes NEMA4/4X-ratings, embedded CPU, 256 MB DRAM (minimum), CompactFlash storage, USB, RS-232 and RS-232/422/485 ports and a 100BaseT Ethernet port. The moving-part-free design allows these units to be deployed in the harshest environments as there are no rotating media storage devices or cooling fans of any kind.
All PowerStations include an industry leading 24-month warranty.
