C-More EA9 HMI Series Panel Web Server and Remote Access (App)
Vložit
- čas přidán 30. 07. 2024
- We will now look at programming the C-More EA9 web server and control using remote apps on Android, IoS, and windows for access.
The C-More HMI Panel can function as a simple web server. A web server includes software and hardware that will respond to World Wide Web client requests. The communication between client and server takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol. (HTTP). Information generally takes the form of pages that may include images, style sheets, scripts, and page text contents. Remote access will allow for viewing or controlling the C-More EA9 HMI. We can use any windows based machine or use the C-More remote HMI App from the Apple iTunes store, Google Play, or Amazon App Store for mobile devices.
We will turn on the webserver functionality in our HMI panel. Using a web browser (Chrome), we will connect to our C-More EA9 HMI. We will then download the remote access software from the website.
We will then run this remote access software to control our existing HMI program. Let’s get started.
More information can be obtained on our website. This includes all of the links mentioned in this video.

There are several reasons that we are using the EA9-T10CL C-More HMI Panel. Here are a few:
• Touch screen display (LCD) 280 NITS display brightness
• 10.4” diagonal color TFT (Thin Film Transistor)
• Analog resistive (1024 X 1024) touch screen allowing unlimited touch areas
• EA9-PGMSW programming software
• 800 x 600-pixel display
• 64K colors
• 50,000-hour average backlight half-life
• USB port B (program/download) and USB port A (USB device options)
• Ethernet 10/100 Base-T port (program/download & PLC communication
• Remote Internet Access
• Serial PLC interface (RS-232/422/485)
• One built-in SD memory card slot
• 12-24 VDC powered (18W), 110VAC power adapter (optional)
• Audio Line Out, stereo - requires amplifier and speaker(s)
• 26MB project memory
• Data logging
• 0 to 50°C [32 to 122°F] operating temperature range
• NEMA 4/4X, IP65 compliant when mounted correctly, indoor use only
• Slim design saves panel space
• UL, cUL & CE agency approvals
• 2-year warranty from date of purchase

Thanks for another great video…
Thanks for watching!

Could you make a video to show MQTT setup on C-MORE HMI and how we can use it or benefit from it in real industrial applications please.
That is a good suggestion. I'll think about it.
Thank you,
Garry
please help me 🙏🙏
i wont to send my project on HMI but it doesn't work bcz am click on ethernate pot and when am trying to click on transfer it does n't show any thing.
Hi benjamin OG,
Since you are using Ethernet, select the setup screen on the EA9 HMI. You can then change the IP address for your network. You can then use the browsing network to locate the HMI unit.
This post will show you how to use the setup screens.

This video will show establishing communication and updating the firmware.

I hope this helps you out.

From my understanding there is no method of being able to remotely update C-more HMI project or the PLC project remotely? Is that correct?
You are correct. The C-More HMI project can only be updated by the EA9 C-More software only. All of the remote is just for the operation of the HMI.

Garry
Can we access the webbrowser program also from outside our own network ? does it support https?
Hi Frank,
www.automationdirect.com/microsites/c-more/software-help/Content/508.htm
At the above link address, you will see how to use Port Forwarding to access the network.
Remote Connection (With Firewall/Router)
If you need a more secure setup then use a VPN like the following:

I hope this helps you out.

Is this application applicable for all the hmi's including EA3 with ethernet port?
Hi Mus A,
This is a common question. The Web Server and remote access apps will only work on the C-More EA9 series. This will not work on the C-More Micro EA3 series.

Garry
9:50 Will I be able access multiple HMIs using this one piece program or would I have to create one per panel?
thank you
Edit: By pure luck , I stumbled across the Ethernet connect setup by changing the icon name from RemoteHMI_IP=XX to site.name=XXX
Hi Rob,
You will notice that the shortcut to call up the screen includes the IP address of the C-More EA9. Substitute the IP address of the other screen and it will connect.
I hope this helps you out.

Garry
@@ACCautomation ill give that a shot. Trying to figure out a simple method for my operators.
Thank you
Is the remote view console program an Active X or .Net application?
I am unsure what software was used. Is there a reason you need this information? Maybe there is another way to get what you need. You could call Automation Direct and ask.
@@ACCautomation I want to bring up the C-more viewer in a wonderware Intouch application.
This does not work.
Hi Tim meh,
I have used this numerous times and under several conditions and it has worked every time.
What is your hardware model number?
Regards,
Garry
Great video but please replace every "Our" with "the." No offense meant.
Hi Dennis,
No offense is taken. I'll keep this in mind for the future.
I do not believe it takes away any value from the video, so I will not be removing and doing it again
Thanks,
Garry
@@ACCautomation Thank-you, sir. I meant no disrespect. I'm a bit of a pain when it comes to technical videos. You're content and explanations are first-rate.
