Local automation, secure remote monitoring and control — in one IP67 device.
The SmartController™ combines the functions of a PLC, HMI, and secure cloud gateway into a single device. The 2.7″ sunlight-readable LCD lets operators view every process value and change setpoints and modes locally. Customize automation logic in Python, expand I/O over Modbus RTU, and stay connected to the cloud over a secure, double-encrypted cellular link.
The IP67-rated PETG-CF enclosure is waterproof, UV-stable, and chemically resistant — it doesn't degrade in direct sunlight and doesn't need a secondary enclosure. Two M12 connectors are pre-wired for power and two RS-485 Modbus ports (client and server).
