Posted 27 Jul 2022 Hello, I guess everyone knows the current availability situation with electronic parts. Due to this reason I'am looking for alternatives for the Omron NA-Panel series. I'am curious if you guys already made some good or bad experiences with third party HMIs in combination with NJ/NX PLCs. It would be a pleasure if you could indicate some brands that will work. Thank you in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 27 Jul 2022 I am looking at using a Phoenix Contact panel (2402980) and the Soft-NA software as an alternative. https://www.phoenixcontact.com/en-ca/products/industrial-pc-bl-fpm-156-2402980 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 27 Jul 2022 I have used Automation Direct and Proface HMIs with Omron PLCs. No issues. Soft NA will be the quickest replacement though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I will take a look at the HMIs you mentioned. thx. On 27.7.2022 at 5:35 PM, pfort said: Maple HMI (Weinteck) work fine with NX serie.
