Advantages of using the GOT
(1) Downsizing the operation panel
The GOT replaces physical switches and lamps with graphical ones, saving I/O points on the PLC and reduces
the size of operation panel.
(2) Reducing wiring costs
The graphical user interface of the GOT eliminates the time and cost of wiring components inside the operation
panel.
(3) Standardizing operation panels
GOTs are flexible, allowing you to build or modify projects without changing the PLC program or system wiring,
which facilitates standardization of operation panels.
(4) Value-added HMI (Human Machine Interface)
GOT can also display graphics, text and alarms in addition to switches and lamps, contributing the value
addition to entire equipment.
