If necessary (e.g. if the controller is installed in a position difficult to access on the machine) the ekr commander control panel can be detached and installed in a central operator panel or a customer-supplied control station. In this case the connection between the controller and the control panel is completed using a cable extension that is available as an optional extra.

Controller with additional control panel

Depending on the conditions in the production machine or the production demands, it may be necessary to operate the controller from a remote location on the machine.

In this case an additional ekr commander control panel can be connected to the bus interface (socket X101) of the controller. The connection between the controller and the additional control panel is completed using a cable extension that is available as an optional extra.
