irBoard Lite
Touch panel display for PLC.
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad
Using irBoard Lite, you can conveniently monitor the status and operation of FA equipment and IoT devices through an iPad or any other iOS device.
The control device known as a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) has communication protocols. irBoard Lite communicates with PLCs via its protocol.
Additionally, it has the capability to communicate effectively with IoT devices, specifically the ESP32 device at present.
You don’t need additional software besides irBoard Lite because the screen editor is already included.
=====================================
irBoard Lite is a limited version of irBoard.
The Lite edition allows users to connect to only one project per day and the launch page only with a maximum of ten items.
And importing a project is not allowed.
To lift these limitations, you can either acquire an unlock item or redeem a ticket to access for four hours.
=====================================
FEATURE:
- You can conveniently monitor the status and operation of FA equipment and IoT devices.
- Although the FA equipment has fixed touch panels installed, the irBoard Lite on iOS devices offers superior portability.
- It is possible to remotely check the status of a device in PLCs.
- To ensure safety, manipulating connected PLC devices is only allowed on a single iOS device.

=====================================
--- Notes ---
With irBoard Lite, you have the ability to turn devices on and off. If you require the interlocking of PLC-controlled devices, it is necessary to configure this on the PLC. To ensure safety, we suggest setting the status of such devices to read-only.
You can monitor the health status to determine if the connection is stable. If the connection is lost, it’s important to take precautionary measures when operating your PLC.
