1-2 Overview
Product Description The Pico GFX-70 is an electronic HMI unit and control relay with the
following features:
• Logic functions
• Timing relay and counter functions
• Time switch functions
• Arithmetic functions
• PID controllers
• Operator and display functions
The Pico GFX-70 is a display, HMI, control and input device in one. It allows
you to create solutions for domestic applications as well as tasks in machine
and plant construction. It is a modular and flexible device.
The Pico-Link enables the connection of up to eight stations to form a single
control system. Each station can contain a program. This allows the design of
systems using high-speed controllers with decentralized intelligence.
In Terminal mode, the Pico GFX-70 can be used to control any device in the
network and display data from it. In this mode, the Pico GFX-70 makes its
keypad and display available to the other device for use.
Two Pico GFX-70 devices can be connected simply via the serial interfaces.
Circuit diagrams are connected up using ladder diagrams, and each element is
entered directly via the Pico GFX-70 display. For example, you can:
• connect make and break contacts in series and in parallel
• switch output relays and auxiliary contacts
• define outputs as coils, impulse relays, rising or falling edge-triggered
relays or as latching relays
• select timing relays with different functions:
– on-delayed
– on-delayed with random switching
– off-delayed
– off-delayed with random switching
– on and off delayed
– on and off delayed with random switching
– on and off delayed with random switching
– single pulse
– synchronous flashing
– asynchronous flashing
• use up and down counters
• count high-speed signals:
– up and down counters with upper and lower limit values
