PanelMate Conpactreplaces conventionalmachine controlpanels that havepushbuttans andpilot devices.

For industr ial machine bui lders, PanellMate Compact'replaces pushbuttons, lamps, message displays and othertraditional control panel devices with a single, space-savingvideo control panel. Increased I lexibi l i ty, cost savings andstandardization are just a Iew of the many reasons l0rchoosing a PanellVlate Compact video c0ntrol panel.

PanelMate Compact reduces integrati0n time, makes c0ntrolmodilications fast and easy, and provides new advancedcapabil i t ies such as machine setup, machine diagnostics,bui l t- in alarming and sel l documeniati0n. Designed t0communicate directly to PLCs, PanelMate Compactel iminates hardwir ing, l /0 modules, PLC support memoryand PLC support programming needed with c0nventionalcontrol panels.

The PanelMate Compact heritageIn 1976, Eaton IDT pi0neered iactoryJloor col0r graphicsterminals that successfully inledaced with programmablel00ic control lers and host c0mDUters.

Early success with colorterminals led us tointroduce the Panell\4ate r'Video Control Panel.PanelMate s intuitiveoperation has receivedwlde-spread operatoracceptance in thousandsof successf ul installations.Now, PanelMate Compact offers the same prOven technologyin a unit specif ical ly designed f0r industr ial machinery andeo u ioment manufactu rers.
