Brodersen text displays and operator panels provide the operator with relevant information about e.g. operating conditions and actual measured variables, when the plant is operating normally, and alerts the operator in case of a malfunction situation.

The information is transferred from a PLC or other controller and converted to clear, simple messages on the display - as fixed texts or a combination of fixed text and current measured variable. Operator panels have 2 lines of text with 20 characters and a capacity of up to 200 messages. Each message can include up to 16 dynamic digits.
