  • Page 13: Function Description

    5. Function description 5.1. Overview The Hydrox HCU Remote is designed to control between 2 and 6 valves operated with hydraulic actuators and used in different applications. These actuators are operated by a semi-closed loop system which al- lows the operation of specific valves by opening/closing them in a controlled manner through the manipula- tion of oil pressure using an inverter-controlled pump.
  • Page 14: Valve Selection

    5.2.2. Opening the valve: Once the valve is selected, press the OPEN button. The pump starts to open the valve according to the configured operational behaviour curve (see section 7.2.3). The pump will automatically stop when the valve reaches the open position. www.vexve.com...

  • Page 24: Hmi & Control

    7. HMI & Control The Hydrox HCU Remote is controlled automatically by a Programmable Logic Controller. This control- ler can be interacted by means of a Human Machine Interface (HMI) connected to it. This section briefly explains how the control architecture is set up, while the following section focuses on the functions that the HMI provides to the user of the system to interact with the capabilities of the PLC.
  • Page 25: Hmi Navigation And Usage

    This section discusses how you can navigate and use the Human Machine Interface (HMI) to change set- tings or values and control the Hydrox HCU Remote. The HMI is a 7” inch Touch Screen Display. The HMI has 8 function keys shown with a red box in Figure 12.
