The EX'M Crane Vision 360° is a specialized programmable logic controller (PLC) designed for bridge cranes and overhead lifting equipment. Part of the EX'M CraneVision system (including HoistGuard and SmartHoist), it provides remote connectivity, real-time data monitoring, and control capabilities. The PLC enables crane operators to view operating statistics, error records, current analysis, and hoist motor tension measurements from any location.

Key Features

• Remote Crane Monitoring & Control: Connect to cranes from anywhere, monitor real-time data, and control operations remotely.
• Comprehensive I/O: PNP inputs, PNP outputs, and pulse output for flexible integration with sensors, actuators, and drives.
• Multiple Communication Protocols: Supports RS485, RS232, Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, and Ethernet for seamless connectivity with SCADA systems, HMIs, and other industrial networks.
• Integrated SCADA & HMI: Built-in SCADA capabilities and HMI for local visualization and control.
• Data Logging & Real-Time Clock: Onboard data logger with real-time clock for recording operational data and error history.
