Maintenance
1. Cleaning the Display
To clean the HMI display, use a soft, lint-free cloth. If necessary, dampen the cloth slightly with water or a mild, non-abrasive screen cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive materials that could damage the screen surface.
2. Environmental Conditions
To ensure optimal performance and longevity, operate and store the HMI within the specified environmental conditions:
- Working Temperature: 0 ~ 50°C
- Working Humidity: 10 ~ 90%RH (Non-condensing)
- Storage Temperature: -20 ~ 60°C
- Storage Humidity: 10 ~ 90%RH (Non-condensing)
Avoid exposing the HMI to direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, high humidity, or corrosive environments.
Troubleshooting
- Q: The HMI does not power on.
- A: Check the power supply connection and ensure the input voltage is within the DC10.8V ~ DC28V range. Verify that the power cable is securely connected and there are no breaks.
- Q: The display is blank or shows an error.
- A: Ensure the HMI is receiving power. If the issue persists, try restarting the device. If a program was recently loaded, verify its integrity. Contact support if the problem continues.
- Q: The touch screen is unresponsive.
- A: Ensure the screen is clean and free of debris. Try a soft reset of the HMI. If the issue persists, it may indicate a hardware problem.
- Q: What languages does the HMI support?
- A: The Kinco HMI supports English, German (Deutsch), Turkish, Chinese, and Korean languages.
- Q: Is the Kinco HMI compatible with Siemens' TIA Portal or WinCC flexible?
- A: No, Kinco HMIs do not directly support Siemens' TIA Portal or WinCC flexible features. However, they do support PLC communication with Siemens devices using standard protocols.
- Q: How many types of PLCs are supported?
- A: Kinco HMIs support communication with over 300 PLC manufacturers, including Siemens, Mitsubishi, Keyence, AB, and Delta, through standard universal protocols like Codesys, Omron Tag Protocol, CANopen, and Modbus.
