The Cost for incorporating a PLC HMI Touchpanel in a project consists of
1. Hardware Cost
2. Programming Software Cost
3. Time to Program / design the screens

Sometimes the 3rd cost far exceeds the first (hardware) cost.

For example, you may pay $500 for the Touchpanel hardware, but it may take you three days to design the screens. At even a low rate of $50 per hr., that will be $1200 for screen design. Assuming the cost of software also to be a low number of $99, the total cost of implementing the project will be $1799. If the screen design time could be reduced to one day, the cost will come down to $999 saving $800 on the project!

* Of course we are assuming that the hardware and the software costs are identical which is most likely not the case. Most competitor's hardware and software costs are 50-100% higher than the EZ Series Touchpanels, which will save you almost 2/3rds of the project cost.

Here is why the EZSeries Touchpanel HMI software is the fastest screen creator in the industry:

1. Our software designers count the number of clicks required for each operation. It is mandatory
2. Our software is extremely interactive and follows the all too familiar windows world.
3. We have the only PLC Touchpanel with "On-Line Edit ", one click on "Save" and your screen transfers from PC to the touchpanel in a blink of the eye. It is FAST
