Yes. Attached are several documents containing examples and descriptions of HMI products used with the NS600 product.
The HMI Summary.pdf document reviews several machine control solutions using an HMI and the Sigma II Indexer application module(s). Up to 16 JUSP-NS600 Sigma II Indexer application modules can be connected to a single HMI via an RS232, RS422, or RS485 serial network (only use RS232 for single-axis applications). In general, any HMI that can communicate using a 7-bit ASCII protocol will work with the Indexer. Typically, the HMI manufacturer (such as Exor or Red Lion) will need to provide a driver in order to communicate with the Indexer .
Yaskawa has performed extensive testing on Exor HMIs. An Exor driver for the Indexer has been developed and released. The Setting Up HMI for Indexer Demo.pdf document describes how to set up and demonstrate an Exor HMI and a single axis Indexer demo. The Exor HMI includes the use of an add-on internal PLC. The SingleAxis Demo.zip contains all the necessary files to set up this demonstration. The Tips on Using HMI to Indexer.pdf provides tips on setting up your own Exor HMI and Indexer system. It also includes tips for using the Exor add-on internal PLC.
