IDEC Corporation introduces the latest addition to the HG family of operator interfacyes, the HG2F.

There are four available models, with a monochrome or 256-color screen, each in a compact and lightweight housing with the same great features. The HG2F has an amazing 192 touch regions and a replaceable backlight. But what really makes the HG2F stand out is the UL-1604 listing, making it IDEC's first touchscreen approved for use in hazardous locations.

Complete user configuration is easy with new WindO/I-NV 2.0 software. The HG2F is compatible with IDEC PLCs and includes drivers for other major PLC brands as well (Mitsubishi, Omron, Allen Bradley).

HG2F-C models feature IDEC's patented CC CLICKT technology. A plastic overlay with four distinct buttons covers the bottom of the screen (see photo below). These buttons provide the tactile and audio feedback you can't get with other touchscreens, without sacrificing programming flexibility. This technology is ideal for gloved operators and frequent tasks.
