    EZ3TouchPLC Modular Cube I/O Features & Benefits

    Integrated HMI & PLC Saves Panel Space

    Whereas sometimes it is mandatory to have Touchpanel and a PLC in two separate packages particularly when the I/O is more than 60, having an integrated HMI & PLC in one unit saves up to 1/3rd of panel space and cost.

    PLC is Free

    When you compare the pricing of EZ3TouchPLC to a seperate HMI and PLC you will find that in this integrated solution PLC is essentially FREE.

    The only fully modular PLC & HMI with 32 Exceptionally Innovative and Unique Features and up to 64I/O in one package

    Along with the most innovative EZPLC and its remarkable IO, EZAutomation was the first company to introduce EZ3TouchPLC in Jan of 2005. It was the first HMI and PLC combination control that featured a high end HMI and a fully modular PLC with total flexibility in configuring IOs. Prior to this, there were some rudimentary attempts to have this all in one package to save panel space and cost, but the flexibility was not there. EZ3TouchPLC changed this with 31 different extremely compact and low cost mix-n-match plug-in IO modules with DC inputs, Short Circuit proof DC Outputs, Relay Outputs, AC inputs, AC outputs, Analog Voltage In, Analog Voltage Out, Analog Current In, Analog Current Out, RTD, Thermocouple, High Speed Counter, PLS, PWM modules and their titillating permutations and combinations. These world class modules also have real high end features for EZ troubleshooting and maintenance such as LED visual indicators next to the removable plug-in terminal blocks. All IO modules are optically isolated. Some other manufacturers have entered this space, like Unitronics and Maple, but they simply are no match. We have 32 exceptionally innovative, unique and unmatched features others do not have. To start with Unitronics until just recently did not offer a modular PLC. I/O was extremely limited. Now with UniSeries they are trying to emulate EZ3TouchPLC but that also is very limited and the price is 2X of EZ3TouchPLC.

    EZ3TouchPLC has been designed to meet the HALT/HASS standards that are used for electronic products used in the space program for shuttle launch, which means high shock and vibration along with thermal shock. In addition the EZ3TouchPLC has a very high immunity to noise.

    Patented HMI on-line edit, No downtime

    All HMIs except for EZTouch, require the machine or process to be shut down to make a change in the HMI program. While a new program is being uploaded to the HMI, it is non-functional and hence the machine can’t be allowed to operate during this time. Every time the HMI program is edited, there is machine down time of typically an hour. All EZTouch series HMIs have a patented on-line edit exceptionally innovative feature that allows the HMI program to be edited without the machine missing a beat.

    In a recent study, more than 2/3rds of control engineers stated that after the HMI is installed in a machine or process, the plant user, system integrator or OEM requests some change in the screen design at least 10 times in the first 90 days following installation. Even if you were able to make the change in half-an-hour, machine/process will be down by 0.5 hr. each time change is made. Taking downtime at even a low cost of $1000/hr., the patented unique HMI online feature in all EZTouch HMIs, saves you at least $5000 in just first 3 months of operation.

    Easiest Integrated HMI and PLC Drag-n-Drop PLC programming software, common to all models

    There is a reason why our company is called EZAutomation and our HMI is called EZTouch. We make it so easy to learn our programming language that no user, hundreds of thousands so far, thank you, ever had to attend any class to learn the programming. Most of our competitor’s products, like from Rockwell, Siemens, Mitsubishi, Unitronics, Schneider, Maple and others require a 3-5 day class to learn how to program their products. Our programming language is so intuitive and so simple that the design time for any screen and the entire project is reduced to hours instead of days. PLC software is equally intuitive, simple drag and drop as if you are drawing a ladder diagram. It has great function blocks, project simulation and troubleshooting features. The programing software is fully integrated into one for EZ3TouchPLC. Additionally, note that the Integrated Programming Software is universal and scalable for all models from top to the bottom.

    Highest Reliability and Noise Immunity in industry.

    EZ3TouchPLC has been designed to meet the HALT/HASS standards that are used for electronic products used in the space program for shuttle launch, which means high shock and vibration along with thermal shock. In addition the EZ3TouchPLC has a very high immunity to noise.

    Advanced functionalities, PID, Math, High Speed counters, PWM.

    The EZ3TouchPLC is a very high end PLC with 55 instructions, 8192 registers, Flash memory, Real Time Clock, 32 Bit floating point math, 8 Auto tuned PID loops, High speed counters, PLS and PWM.

    Highest Processing power per cubic inch.

    EZ3TouchPLCs are uniquely compact living up to the AVG theme of “Maximum Processing Power per cubic inch”. AVG is a vertically integrated company with in-house capability of high density PCBs, thick film hybrids, flexible boards and semiconductors allowing us to be extremely innovative. We introduced a truly compact modular PLC concept with a non-traditional approach to plug-in IO modules. These compact modules have incredible processing power, for example optically isolated 4 of 12 bit Analog inputs and 4 of 12 bit analog outputs in a 2x2x1 package that plugs into its base and has a removable plug-in terminal block!! EZ3TouchPLC has 8192 Registers, 64 KB of program memory, Real Time Clock and Flash memory, along with a rich and powerful 55 instructions set of 32 bit floating point math and function blocks. It comes in 2 bases, 4 or 8, that is up to 64 IO (soon to become 128).

    Status LED for each I/O in every model.

    We have served the Automation industry since 1968. In fact, one of the AVG divisions, Uticor is the inventor of PLCs themselves. We have been around the block and totally understand the value of maintenance and down time in a manufacturing plant. We always make troubleshooting as convenient and EZ as possible. That is why, all our IO points have an LED right next to the output terminal and the terminal block is always Ezily removable and plug-in.

    Fastest response time.

    EZ3TouchPLC has  a scan time of 3 ms for 1000 instructions including overhead with 1K instructions and overhead. In additional it has high speed interrupt Inputs and Quadrature Encoder/PLS feature to respond to position change in 100 microseconds. 

    Choice of 6", 7", 8”, 10", 15" displays for Modular I/O PLCs

    EZ3TouchPLC modular has a wide choice of six display sizes, all with LED backlight and 50+K hours at 55 degree C ambient.

    At least 2 for 1 of Unitronics, Maple HMI+PLC models, & Cmore and Separate Domore PLCs.

    If you compare the HMI+PLC offering of EZAutomation and Unitronics, you will find that apples to apples, Unintronics UniSeries, Maple HMC Series, and  Automationdirect Cmore/Domore, shall be at least 3 for one, and if you compare the apples to oranges, that is EZAutomation’s EZ3TouchPLC to their lowest cost models, they will be at least 2 for 1.

    Incredibly condensed, 31 different combo and Specialty plug-in I/O Cube modules.

    Besides the compactness, customers find the mix-match configurations of EZ IO Cube modules used in EZ3TouchPLC to be very attractive. We have 31 different modules where as we have DC In and DC Out, AC and DC mixed, Analog In and Out mixed, Relay modules mixed, allowing an unparalleled flexibility in configuring a PLC system. In fact, our engineering innovation forced the industry to change. 14 years later a lot more PLC manufacturers are offering mix IO modules but EZ is still at the top. We also have RTD, Thermocouple, High Speed Counter, and PWM modules.
    The IO modules are world class with features better than from top line PLCs, Optical isolation, Short circuit proof outputs, LED indicators next to plug-in terminals, easy to insert and lock in IO modules, all with the highest functionality per cubic inch.

    All models have EZ Wifi $49 option to connect to your laptop without cable

    This tiny little module that plugs into one of the serial ports in the EZ3TouchPLC  (we recommend installing on every unit) allows a programmer to connect his/her laptop to it without a cable. So many times, it is not so easy to reach the Operator console to connect the programming cable to the HMI/PLC. Combination of our patented On-Line Edit feature and EZminiWifi becomes an exceptionally innovative solution to making changes on HMI screens and PLC ladder logic without having to open up the control cabinet and connect the Programming cable.

    Full project simulation on your PC for EZ3TouchPLC Series.

    EZ3TouchPLC programming software allows you to preview and test your entire HMI project by our Project simulation feature in the software. You can simulate the entire project on your PC itself before loading it up in your EZ3TouchPLC. It’s a great time saver for programmers.

    "C" Level scripting and logic expressions

    Each tag in EZTouch HMI can be defined with a logic expression and C level scripting to get mathematical burden off the PLC and reduce the memory requirement in the PLC. Such a high end HMI can reduce the task of PLC to do simple ladder logic, even though the PLC inside the EZ3TouchPLCs has sufficient horsepower of their own.

    Data logging, Recipes, EMail, USB, free chart recorder

    EZTouch HMIs with data-logging features log large amount of data on the local Micro SD card or USB flash drive. This data can subsequently be up loaded to a local server or cloud. This feature turns the EZ3TouchPLC into a chart recorder saving hundreds of dollars on an external chart recorder. EZ3TouchPLC also offers advanced Recipe Management to program different variables of a Recipe simultaneously. In addition, EZ3TouchPLC HMIs have another advanced feature of sending emails or texts to designated personnel in the event of an alarm.

    On-Screen Recipe Edit

    All EZTouch HMIs have an exceptionally innovative feature of on-screen recipe edit where you can edit the recipe on the HMI itself without needing to connect to a laptop with programming software.

    Remote Monitoring & Control smart phones & Ethernet

    All EZTouch HMIs have a remote monitoring and control feature where you can monitor and control the functionality of an HMI remotely via a Smart phone with iOS or Android OS. RMC can also be done over Ethernet connection in all EZTouch HMIs.

    Most advanced alarm management and Logging

    Alarm management in EZTouch HMIs is at a very advanced level. It has an Alarm database, alarm history, alarm preview, alarm count, alarm message to a marquee, alarm preview, alarm simulation and alarm reset protection.

    Dual Driver capability to communicate to other PLC networks.

    EZ3TouchPLCs have the capacity to talk to multiple PLCs at the same time. Therefore, besides, the EZPLC, it can also talk to another network. For example, the EZ3TouchPLC can talk to Ethernet IP on one side and also Profibus on the PLC side.

    Best looking objects and animation with 65K colors.

    EZTouch HMIs have the best looking objects simulating real life panel actuators and indicators. And the animation of process is great. All EZTouch HMIs except the EZTouch Original now have 65K colors.
