    Tom Best talked to us about how we helped with the Gemini Carnival Club’s Carnival Cart.

    Tell us a bit about yourself Tom?
    I live in Somerset and work as an Electrical Design Engineer. I served an apprenticeship with Numatic in Chard and was there for a few years before moving on to new challenges. In my spare time I am involved with Gemini Carnival Club, a Somerset Carnival Club – we build a carnival cart every year and tour the Somerset carnival circuits with it.

    TechTip: Large Numeric Display on Weintek HMI

    This TechTip is about using a Weintek HMI as a large digit display with numbers bigger than the permitted "255" for a numeric object. In order to achieve this, we'll split the number into ones, tens, hundreds and thousands using modulo operations in a macro and use the resulting digits with word lamps.

  • TechTip: Using HIWORD/LOWORD & HIBYTE/LOBYTE in a macro on Weintek HMI
    TechTip: Using HIWORD/LOWORD & HIBYTE/LOBYTE in a macro on Weintek HMI

    The Weintek Macro language has a some useful functions for stripping 32bit and 16bit numbers into words, and bytes. In this macro example, we're splitting a 32bit word into a 16bit "HIWORD" and a 16bit "LOWORD", and splitting the two resulting words into four bytes.

    The syntax for HIWORD, LOWORD, HIBYTE & LOBYTE is the same format - FUNCTION(source, destination):
    HIWORD(source, destination)
    LOWORD(source, destination)
    HIBYTE(source, destination)
    LOBYTE(source, destination)

    The Macro is carrying…

    Case Study: Weintek cMT X Series & EasyAccess 2.0 afloat

    We talked to Rob Howdle of Ortomarine Narrowboats about how he’s using Weintek's cMT X Series HMI to display multiple inputs from different protocols.

    Tell me about yourself – where are you located, what’s your background? .

    We’re based just outside Kidderminster.  My background was in anything to do with industrial automation, pharma, oil and gas. I travelled constantly round the world and airport to airport was the norm.

    I ended up in the narrowboat industry by chance.  My brother was made…
