| Facing the IoT era, we are seeing a growing number of PLCs, controllers, and embedded devices supporting built-in web server, which allows users to adjust system parameters or monitor device status directly on its webpage. In response to this growth in web popularity, Weintek has added support for the PLC Web Browser feature in the new cMT X Series. PLC Web Browser provides HMI with a quick, convenient way to access the webpages and eliminates the need for a dedicated web browsing device, leading to not only an increase in operational efficiency but also cost saving. | ||||||||||||
