Tech-noteTech-note UniOP eTOP33C

The eTOP33C is a state-of-the-art HMI device with touchscreen interface and 10.4” TFT color 

graphic display. Support for 64K colors in the brilliant TFT display will increase the realism of the 

images. The integrated 10/100 Ethernet interface makes connectivity in complex control systems 

much more efficient. The VGA resolution makes it the ideal choice for high-end HMI applications. 

• 10.4” TFT color display

• VGA (640x480 pixel) resolution

• 64K colors

• Resistive touchscreen

• 10/100 Ethernet interface

• Connection to industrial bus systems (requires 

optional plug-in modules) 

• Compatible with video input module 

• 64 MB internal user memory

The eTOP HMI panels are part of the UniOP family of touchscreen products. All of the eTOP 

products support the rich common functionalities of the UniOP operator panels: 

• Powerful and intuitive programming with 

the UniOP Designer 6 software 

• Support of more than 130 communication 

drivers for industrial devices 

• Integrated Ethernet port for connection to 

field devices as well as programming the 

HMI from Designer. 

• Optional modules for fieldbus systems 

(Profibus DP, CANopen, DeviceNet, 

Interbus). 

• Dual-driver communication capability 

• Vector graphic capabilities including the 

support of multiple layers and object 

transparency. 

• Video input option. 

• Display dynamic data in numerical, text, 

bargraph and graphic image formats 

• Data acquisition and trend presentation. 

Trend data can be transferred to an host 

computer using the Ethernet connection. 

• Analog gauge objects 

• Recipe data storage. Recipe data can be 

transferred to an host computer using the 

Ethernet connection. 

• Multilanguage applications. The number 

of runtime languages is limited only by the 

available memory. All text information in 

the application can be exported in Unicode 

format for easier translation. 

• Powerful macro editor to configure 

touchscreen operation 

• Alarms and historical alarm list. Alarm 

and event information can be printed or 

transferred to an host computer using the 

Ethernet connection. 

• Eight level password protection. 

• Report printing to serial printer. Reports 

are freely configurable using Designer. 

• Ethernet-based UniNet network to share 

data between UniOP HMIs and to serve 

data using UniNet OPC Server.
