Jan. 9, 2010
The Simatic MP 377 15-inch Daylight Readable human-machine interface (HMI) is a high-contrast, full-color touch panel designed for installation outside where screen visibility is necessary in direct sunlight. 
Engineered with transflective technology, the MP 377 includes a UV-protected exterior and 3mm-thick glass that resists sunlight discoloration and ensures a rugged IP66 environmental rating. The HMI comes with a TFT color display and built-in Profinet/Ethernet and Profibus/MPI communication ports, two USB ports and 12MB of onboard application memory that can be expanded with an integrated SD memory slot or CF card slot. Designed on the Windows CE operating system, the MP 377 Daylight Readable HMI is capable of running Simatic WinAC PC-based control software and standard WinCC flexible HMI panel software, as well as many standard PC applications.Siemens Industry Inc.www.usa.siemens.com800.SIEMENS
