Smart HMIX1 Datasheet

Product Overview

Smart HMIX1 is a Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE)–based industrial HMI controller with an integrated touchscreen, designed for machine monitoring, data acquisition, and edge‑level automation in industrial and commercial environments.

The controller features a rich set of I/O interfaces including 8 analog inputs, 8 digital inputs, 1 × RS‑485 interface, and 4 digital outputs, enabling seamless integration with sensors, meters, actuators, and legacy industrial equipment. This makes Smart HMIX1 an ideal choice for applications requiring real‑time data visualization, control logic execution, and local decision‑making.

With its intuitive touchscreen interface, users can monitor live signals, configure thresholds, trigger outputs, and visualize machine or process status directly on the device without relying on external HMIs or PLCs. Wi‑Fi connectivity enables cloud and local server integration, while BLE allows secure local commissioning, diagnostics, and maintenance.

Designed as an edge automation controller, Smart HMIX1 continues to operate independently once configured, ensuring reliable control even during network interruptions. Its compact, industrial‑ready design makes it suitable for smart factories, building automation systems, energy monitoring panels, and retrofit industrial control projects.

Smart HMIX1 bridges the gap between traditional control panels and modern Industrial IoT platforms by combining HMI, I/O control, and wireless connectivity into a single, scalable solution.
