HMI Alternative to NA-Series

[HulleFu]

Hello,

I guess everyone knows the current availability situation with electronic parts. Due to this reason I'am looking for alternatives for the Omron NA-Panel series.

I'am curious if you guys already made some good or bad experiences with third party HMIs in combination with NJ/NX PLCs. It would be a pleasure if you could indicate some brands that will work.

 

Thank you in advance.

I am looking at using a Phoenix Contact panel (2402980) and the Soft-NA software as an alternative.

I have used Automation Direct and Proface HMIs with Omron PLCs. No issues. Soft NA will be the quickest replacement though.

Maple HMI (Weinteck) work fine with NX serie.

Currently we are already using the soft NA on Touch-Notebooks. The problem seems that even the Soft-NA License is hard to get. But I  will take a look at the HMIs you mentioned. thx.
