1. Introduction
Many applications require faults or the operating status to be displayed by an optical signal.
As a PLC or machine control system is not always available, PCs are frequently used for
system control and monitoring.
The ideal solution here is to use the terminal element with USB interface, which is available for
both signal tower series KombiSIGN 71 and Kompakt 71. Developed in-house at WERMA, this
innovative product allows direct PC actuation for fast and convenient commissioning. As well
as actuation via a DLL (Dynamic Link Library), the element can also be simply commissioned
by means of VCP (Virtual COM Port) actuation. This ensures for simple integration into any
customer-specific software.
Up to five signal towers with a maximum of five signalling elements each can be connected
per PC. An optimized electronic circuit allows each of the elements to be triggered either as
a permanent or blinking light. This means that up to ten different operating statuses can be
signalled using only a single signalling tower. The terminal element with USB interface requires
neither its own separate power supply nor any additional hardware.
