Daily Industrial Automation News and Tips:
Today we’re covering news about Picking an HMI, Telecom, Middle Mile Networking, Brakes and Clutches, Motion in PTZ Cameras, and more in our Automation This Morning blog for Monday, February 6, 2023.
First up is an article on the ISA website here submitted by Anaheim Automation sharing six tips for selecting an HMI.
Next up are two articles from the folks over at WWT. The first one here discusses what they see as four trends in telecommunications. The second article here discusses software-driven, middle mile networking.
Over on the Electromate website here is a new introductory guide to electric brakes and clutches.
And on the Digi-Key site is a new article here about what considerations go into making energy efficient PTZ Cameras, including Steeper and Motion Control.
On the digital newsstand today we have the latest edition of Antaira’s newsletter here.
In today’s product spotlight we’re highlighting The Automation School’s PanelView Plus course, PVP Basics. Details on the course can be found here, and like all The Automation School’s online courses, PVP Basics comes with lifetime access and instructor support.
Today’s download is a new version of the Siemens SITOP Manager software here.
In today’s featured Audio/Video file here, we have a new announcement from AMT (Association for Manufacturing Technology) that they are merging with SVR (Silicon Valley Robotics.)
Today we also debut a brand new Tech Tip, which you can watch in the video edition of the morning show below. In it I walk through how to use the new CCW Simulator to simulate a Micro800 Program, which you can also read about in my article here.
