HMI I/O controller does simple tasks without a PLC
A new I/O module easily interfaces with Beijer Electronics’ HMI and allows the user to implement simple monitoring and automation tasks without a PLC. The compact HMI I/O controller is developed for the plus version of the H-T40, the H-T40m-P, which features extended memory. The module can be easily mounted on the back of the H-T40m-P.

A new I/O module easily interfaces with Beijer Electronics’ HMI and allows the user to implement simple monitoring and automation tasks without a PLC. The compact HMI I/O controller is developed for the plus version of the H-T40, the H-T40m-P, which features extended memory. The module can be easily mounted on the back of the H-T40m-P. The HMI I/O controller features 12 digital inputs/4 digital outputs. Other versions, including analog I/O modules, are in development. Up to 16 modules per H-T40m-P can be stacked up; the built-in processor enables the H-T40m-P to operate at optimal speed with no adverse effects. Monitoring and automation tasks can be developed with H-Designer software, which features flexible tools that allow projects to be created in a few minutes and offers instant off-line and on-line simulation. www.beijerelectronics.com Beijer Electronics

2012 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering’s annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.
