Replace your PanelView and/or Drives

SoftPLC provides great options to help you upgrade devices on Allen-Bradley Remote I/O (RIO) or Data Highway Plus (DH+) networks. With our Gateway products and migration solutions, you can easily and affordably:

• Use any HMI on your A-B RIO or DH+ networks
• Convert your PanelBuilder or FactoryTalk application to run it in a SoftPLC Web Studio HMI
• Replace drives, robots, scales, or other equipment on your A-B RIO or DH+ networks without the need to change the PLC

The utility also supports converting Eaton PanelMate HMI applications to SoftPLC Web Studio.

PanelBuilder, PanelView and FactoryTalk are trademarks of Rockwell Automation/Allen-Bradley.
PanelMate is a registered trademark of Eaton Corporation.

Connect any HMI/Drive to an A-B RIO or DH+ Network

If you have an HMI, Drive or other equipment that communicates to an A-B PLC on 'Blue Hose', whether it is A-B Remote I/O or a Data Highway Plus network, you can replace it with a new HMI/Drive of your choice, without changing the A-B PLC logic or network cabling!

Using a Smart SoftPLC or NeoPAC SoftPLC Gateway equipped with a RIO Adapter (Slave) or a Data Highway Plus interface, you can achieve a virtually seamless upgrade. The SoftPLC Gateway appears to the A-B PLC to be the original HMI/Drive, and can be connected to your new HMI/Drive via Ethernet, serial, other industrial networks or even by analog I/O. The SoftPLC Gateway can be mapped to appear to the HMI as an A-B PLC or a Modbus/ModbusTCP or Ethernet/IP device. SoftPLC Gateways can also be configured to support many other protocols.

Migrate from PanelView/FactoryTalk/PanelMate to Web Studio

The original PanelView products were proprietary, closed HMI platforms. Today's PC-Based HMI's (such as our SoftPLC Web Studio SSH family of operator interfaces) provide lower cost solutions with many more features, and easy future migration paths as hardware advances are made. Many SSH-x HMI's are 'drop-in' replacements for Allen-Bradley PanelView's, having the same cut-out size. Our A-B Crossover page includes a chart with hardware size equivalents.

Most often, the larger cost of an HMI application is the engineering investment in the development of the application. PanelView, FactoryTalk and PanelMate users who want to take advantage of Web Studio's comprehensive feature set and lower costs can use our automated add-on tools to import PanelBuilder, FactoryTalk, or PanelMate applications into SoftPLC Web Studio. It’s possible to save considerable time in conversion from a previously designed application to a SoftPLC Web Studio application with the Import Utilities for PanelBuilder32, FactoryTalk, and PanelMate.




Items converted include:

• Tags Database (Name, Type and Description)
• Screens (frames, objects, shapes, properties and dynamics)
• Alarm messages
• Communication Interfaces

The Import Utilities convert applications from PanelBuilder32 software^*, FactoryTalk or PanelMate to Web Studio file formats. Once converted, the application can be run on any SoftPLC HMI (Cat No SSH-x), or your own Windows-based computer with a Web Studio runtime installed.

Application Conversion Process


You simply submit your original files to the corresponding import utility. It will convert them to the equivalent Web Studio file formats. Most conversions are at least 90% complete. Using the Web Studio development tools, you can then easily modify the un-converted items, make any changes (eg: modifying the application to support soft buttons vs the built-in PanelView hardware buttons). After converting an application, you can also enhance it by taking advantage of the many features in SoftPLC Web Studio such as Trends/Alarms, Event Logs, Recipes, Reports, Math Scripts, Web-based/Thin-Client viewers, and much more...


^*The PanelBuilder import utility is compatible with PanelBuilder 32 versions 3.8 and above. Older versions can be imported into FactoryTalk, then imported using the FactoryTalk utility.
The PanelMate import utility is compatible with PanelMate Pro V2.20 and PanelMate Plus V4.0

  Demo - Evaluation Software

  This evaluation version is a full working product installation that allows up to 40 hours development, and 1 hour runtime each session. A demo application is also included to show the various product features. Product documentation and a tutorial is built into the help system, and supplemental documents such as application notes and communication driver manuals are installed as part of the image.

Tweha PanelMate (heretofore LijmTec) is the original product with which Tweha has entered this market back in the late eighties. Tweha PanelMate is being applied successfully for more than 25 years now. The bonding systems of Tweha distinguish themselves in the market by its specific composition and high quality.

Tweha PanelMate is a one-component high-end hybrid-polymer. Its unique formulation provides the highest values for adhesion, tensile and shear strength. The use of an aggressive adhesive primer is unnecessary, which results in significant savings in time and money.

This bonding system provides fast, invisible and extremely durable fixing of almost all types and brands of facade and wall panels. Thanks to our long-standing experience, there is almost no material or brand that we haven’t worked with.

Therefore the use of Tweha PanelMate is extremely broad and can be applied with materials such as HPL panels, fibercement board and polyester concrete.

Tweha PanelMate is mainly used for gluing entire façades in residential and commercial building, but is also suitable for amongst others bonding cladding, fascias, eaves, canopies, ceilings, dormer windows, panelling and, partitions.

Especially in renovation, the combination of stony strips on a supporting panel is very popular. Old buildings and office buildings often are renovated. The new standards for insulation are applicable for these renovated buildings, meaning that a new and thicker insulation package must be installed. In order to cover that layer, a ventilated curtain wall construction is installed because otherwise the building line would not allow for a complete outer leaf of full bricks. The look of the façade is maintained thanks to a frame of fibercement boards with brick strips glued on it.

This system has been developed especially for refurbishment and renovation because it offers great flexibility and complies with all applicable insulation standards.
