EZText Overview

The EZ Text character based PLC operator interface was introduced in January 2001. The combination of its EZ to program features, rugged construction, high noise immunity and a very aggressive low price has made The EZ Text Panel a favorite of thousands of control engineers world wide. This product series has been continuously enhanced to add a number of new communication protocols and new bright vacuum fluorescent displays.

Most recently, we have added DH-485 protocol to EZ Text which allows it to replace Allen Bradley's obsolete Data Liners at a fraction of the cost.

These operator interfaces are the most sensible PLC Text Panels in the market today. EZ Text panels support serial drivers for Aromat, Idec, CTC, Omron, Allen Bradley, GE, Mitsubishi, Modicon, Seimens, Automation Direct and EZAutomation's EZPLC's.

This versatility makes The EZText Ehanced a market leader and clear choice for engineers world wide.

In addition to it's versatile communcations and networking abilities, the EZText range of Text Displays and interfaces excels at providing a neat solution at a fraction of the cost of other options on the market.
