Red Lion announces full support of Banner Engineering's PresencePLUS® vision sensors via our G3 Series of touchscreen HMIs. As a result of a joint development, the Red Lion G3 Series HMIs can now conveniently allow a machine operator to deliver specific vision sensor controls while seeing exact images of the entire sensing area on the G3's bright display.

The G3 Series features a built-in image driver that allows the integration of multiple Banner vision sensors; the G3 supports Banner's full line of PresencePLUS sensors. Sensor positioning as well as inspection file transfer for varying batches or product control can now be done without a PC.

With its multiple-protocol Ethernet port, the G3 can connect to the vision sensor, as well as to PLCs and PCs simultaneously. The G3's Web Server provides a virtual HMI that can be accessed remotely from any standard web-browser. For added flexibility the G3 can be configured to serve custom HTML pages.

With the G3's inspection file transfer capability, users are able to upload or download any inspection file they choose from the CompactFlash card to the PresencePLUS sensor.
