Modern, compact small PLC control unit with touch display
PLC - Small Control Unit with up to 50 satellite displays
Control and visualization. The new PLC series expands the classic small control unit in the control cabinet with an integrated color display inclusive touch. In addition, this solution enables visualization on up to 50 satellite displays. There, measured values can be displayed and settings can be made by touch. Thanks to edge computing, even complex and visually appealing screen layouts can be easily implemented.
Wi-Fi, RS-485, USB, Ethernet
Program your control tasks via USB and connect the desired satellite displays via RS-485 or wirelessly via Wi-Fi/WLAN.
The basic version of the PLC-Core for DIN rail mounting offers 8 digital inputs, 4 relay outputs, 4 analog inputs (0-10V or 4-20mA) and one RS-232. Including Real-Time-Clock. The supply voltage is 12-24V.
In the control unit (core) there is a high quality TFT display with touch panel already to monitor the most important parameters.
Here you will find the two data sheets for hardware and software:
Arbitrarily expandable
Different requirements need different displays. Choose from 5+1 different sizes - as a recessed solution, for wall mounting ond integraton in front plate or door. All displays were developed in Germany. The support includes at any time a direct contact person from the development incl. assistance in programming.

Individually networked
All process parameters are automatically synchronized with the satellite displays. This means that displaying current values can be flexibly implemented on one display, as well as individual settings for process parameters at another location. Each display follows its individual purpose: for service, work preparation, monitoring or management. Satellite displays are available in different sizes and designs.
PLCDesigner - The Windows Quick Programmer Tool
All touch and display functions as well as animations are freely programmable via the free Windows tool "PLCDesigner". Using a graphical WYSIWYG editor, individual pages can be created: here a background, there a logo and text, further a measured value, a slider, etc.
The tool also includes a simulator with which the result is immediately visible on the PC; including functionality via touch and the inputs and outputs on the core. Manage all satellites and connections in your project clearly. Download:
Wall mounting, DIN rail, flush-mounting, integration
Different locations require different housings. Therefore DISPLAY VISIONS offers all sizes as a built-in solution for seamless integration into your device. Alternatively, solutions with a housing for surface mounting are also planned. The small 2" display is also available for flush mounting (U-plaster).
In each case, the front is made of scratch-resistant glass. Thanks to a touch-sensitive surface, direct and intuitive interactions are possible. The following formats are planned: 2", 2.8", 3.5", 4.3", 5", 7", 10.1" und 12,1". All brilliant displays with 1,000 cd/m² in outstanding IPS technology for an all-round viewing angle and stable colors.
SPS with Display and Touch
The first small PLC with color display and touch.
For simple setup and as a status display. No computer required, no cell phone, no app. No licenses. Everything included.
FAQ - Questions and Answers About Small PLCs
Questions and brief, easy-to-understand answers about small PLCs
What are the advantages of the new PLC series with an integrated color display and touchscreen?
The new PLC series with an integrated color touchscreen offers numerous advantages. It adds a visual component to the classic small-scale controller, allowing measured values to be displayed directly and settings to be adjusted via touch. Thanks to the ability to connect up to 50 satellite displays, information can be flexibly distributed and displayed. The integration of edge computing also enables complex and visually appealing screen layouts. This significantly improves user-friendliness and efficiency in the control and visualization of processes.
How are control tasks programmed for the PLC series?
Programming of control tasks for the PLC series is performed via USB. The project is created using the free WYSIWYG tool PLCdesigner. In addition, the desired satellite displays can be connected either via RS-485 or wirelessly via WiFi/WLAN. The PLC series offers a user-friendly programming environment that enables efficient implementation of custom control tasks. The integrated real-time clock and the various inputs and outputs provide additional flexibility during programming.
What display sizes are available for the PLC series?
The PLC series offers a variety of display sizes to meet different requirements. The available sizes range from small 2-inch displays through 4.3- and 7-inch models to large 12.1-inch displays. This variety makes it possible to select the right display size for every location and application. All displays feature brilliant colors and a high brightness of 1,000 cd/m². IPS technology also ensures a wide viewing angle and consistent colors.
