Chapter 1: Overview

Introducing the Vision OPLC™1

Vision OPLCs are programmable logic controllers that comprise an integral operating panel.

Compactly designed, these controllers are compatible with different types of Unitronics’ I/O

modules. This allows you to build Vision-controlled systems capable of automating a broad

range of analog and digital applications. All Vision OPLCs offer RS232 communications,

CANbus networking options, and a real-time clock (RTC).

Vision OPLC operating panels contain a graphic LCD screen and a keyboard. Certain models

offer graphic touchscreens. The LCD screen displays operator instructions, alarms, and real-

time variable system information via text and graphic images. The operator uses the

programmable keyboard to enter or modify data within the Vision-controlled system. This

communication interface between the controller and operator is referred to as the HMI, or

Human Machine Interface, throughout this manual.

Vision 230/260/280 User Guide

Two types of I/O modules are compatible with Vision OPLCs. I/O modules are available in a

variety of models. Snap-in I/O Modules plug directly into the back of a Vision OPLC,

creating a self-contained PLC unit with a local I/O configuration. I/O Expansion Modules

can also be easily integrated to greatly extend the system’s control capacity.

These features combine to offer a cost-effective solution for medium-sized industrial

applications that require both an operator’s interface and the ability to control small-to-

medium processes according to time and ambient conditions.

Technical Description

The Vision OPLC

• Dimensions: V230: 184 x 155 x 61.4 mm (7.24 x 6.1 x 2.4”)

V260/V280: 260 x 155 x 72 mm (10.24 x 6.1 x 2.8”)

• Mounting: Panel-mounted via brackets

• Power supply: 12 or 24VDC

• Real-time clock (RTC): Enables time and date controlled functions.

• Battery back-up: protects real-time clock (RTC) and all data, including variable data.

Operating Panel

Operating panels comprise either a graphic screen or graphic touchscreen, and a keyboard:

• The LCD screen displays both user-defined text; according to fonts selected in the HMI

program; and user-designed graphic images. Models offering a graphic touchscreen

enable the user to assign ‘tap’ properties to text and graphic objects.

• All models comprise an alphanumeric keypad. V230/260 models offer 6 softkeys, V260

models offer an additional 9 function keys. V280 comprises 9 softkeys. To label keys,

insert keyboard slides as described in: “Chapter 7: Operating Panel Options”, page 29.

I/Os

I/Os are integrated into the system via Snap-in I/O Modules and I/O Expansion Modules.

Vision can support up to 171 digital, high-speed, and analog I/Os; in accordance with the

integrated I/O module types.

Snap-in I/O Modules

These I/O modules easily plug into the back of the controller, providing an on-board I/O

configuration that can include analog and digital I/Os.

I/O Expansion Modules

Via the controller’s I/O expansion port, connect up to 8 I/O Expansion Modules per controller.

Note that all I/O technical specifications are provided in a separate document.
