Key Findings of July 2005 Trade Magazine Survey
Blow Out All Competition!
The predecessor of EZSeries Touchpanel, called EZPanel Enhanced, had only half of these enhancements over the original EZTouch. An incredible 91.4% of Automation engineers in North America rated this enhanced version of EZTouch as fair to great, 25% ahead of its nearest competition! See study below. And with one of the most innovative Engineering teams supporting EZSeries Touchpanel, we believe that it will remain as the Highest Overall Value PLC Touchpanel.

New Enhancements
Project Simulation (featured above)
Simulate projects before transferring to panel: Interact, Navigate and Debug right on your PC even BEFORE transferring to your panel – A tremendous time saving feature.
4 New Unicode-Enabled Objects (featured above)
Use any Font installed on your PC including Chinese, Japanese, Arabic etc, with Unicode-enabled objects. Now you can create screens for your overseas market/ operators.
Pick and Apply Styles
Program one object to your liking (Color, size, etc), then use these features to pick the programmed style and apply it to any number of similar objects in one click.
Language Import/Export
Easily program multiple language strings in objects. Export all text strings to a spreadsheet; Have a translator fill-in the corresponding text in other language(s); Import the spreadsheet back in the project to make it multi-lingual.
Free Sizing of Touch Objects
Touch objects are no more constrained to touch cells; Tweak touch objects for creating aesthetically pleasing screen designs.
Bitmap Creation/Editing
Edit images in any of the bit map objects from within the editor, e.g. modify selected pixels, delete pixels, add pixels, etc.
New Image Formats for Bitmap Objects
Now import JPEG, ICO, and GIF images (for example company logos, product images readily available on your company’s website) in the Bitmap Objects.
Display Tag Name/Address on Objects
A convenient feature during screen development eliminating time-consuming tag lookup or the need to remember tag-object associations.
Monitor Tag Values
A debug tool, particularly useful, if your PLC has only one Port with EZToouch panel connected to it; Monitor PLC tag values on your PC through the panel.
Single File Project Saving
Save your project in a convenient single file, easy to back up and copy.
Project File Packager for Easy Distribution
A feature for distributing and automatically upgrading screen design projects for EZTouch panels. OEMs can save cost and time on field service calls while protecting their design projects by using this feature.
Overlapping of Objects
Activate multiple touch objects with a single touch, and place objects in a heavily-populated screen without worrying few pixel overlap between objects.
And Many More...
