Weintek MT8051iE Series HMI Touch Screen
Product Information
- The MT8051iE Series HMI is an operator panel designed for indoor use only with a NEMA 4 rating. It has been tested to conform to European CE requirements, meaning the circuitry is designed to resist electrical noise. However, proper wire routing and grounding are necessary to ensure proper operation.
- The package comes with installation instructions, a human-machine interface, a power connector, and brackets and screws.
- The HMI requires a control box that provides enough stiffness and has a cutout dimension of 119 mm x 93 mm. All fastening holes and provided brackets and screws must be used to secure the operator panel in position, with a screw torque of 2.6 ~ 3.9 lbs.in to reach a waterproof effect and prevent panel deformation.
- The positive DC line must be connected to the ‘+’ terminal, and DC ground to the ‘-‘ terminal. When downloading a project using a USB cable, do not connect HMI with PLC and PC simultaneously, as the electric potential difference may result in damage to HMI or PC.
- When powered up and displaying an image, the system setting button must be clicked to access the security tab, where the default password is 111111. Users can set their own passwords by clicking the buttons. In the MISC2 tab, enabling the ‘Reset HMI to default’ button in calibration mode will allow users to restore factory default by following the onscreen guide.
- The EasyBuilder Pro software must be launched to select the project file, press the F7 to shortcut key to open the download dialog box, select the Ethernet > IP tab, enter the HMI IP, and click Download to download the project file to HMI. Using a screensaver and backlight saver is recommended to avoid image persistence caused by displaying the same image on HMI for a long time.
- COM1 and COM3 [RS485] 2W support MPI 187.5K, and only one should be used at a time. Calibration mode can be accessed by pressing and holding anywhere on the screen when HMI starts, and if the ‘Reset HMI to default’ button in calibration mode is enabled, the ‘RESET HMI TO DEFAULT’ and ‘SYSTEM SETTINGS’ buttons can be found in calibration mode.
Product Usage Instructions
- Ensure that the installation environment meets NEMA rating electrical environment and environmental considerations, and cleaning considerations IP rating.
- Unpack and check the delivery. Place the operator panel on a stable surface during installation to prevent damage.
- Use a control box that provides enough stiffness and secure the operator panel in position using all fastening holes and provided brackets and screws.
- Connect the positive DC line to the ‘+’ terminal and DC ground to the ‘-‘ terminal. Do not connect HMI with PLC and PC simultaneously when downloading project using a USB cable.
- Click the system setting button when HMI is powered up and displaying an image. Set passwords and enable the ‘Reset HMI to default’ button in calibration mode if needed.
- Launch EasyBuilder Pro software, select the project file, enter HMI IP, and click Download to download the project file to HMI. Use a screensaver and backlight saver to avoid image persistence caused by displaying the same image on HMI for a long time.
- Use only one of COM1 and COM3 [RS485] 2W at a time. Access calibration mode by pressing and holding anywhere on the screen when HMI starts, and restore factory default if needed by following the onscreen guide.

Battery Replacement
Battery replacement shall be performed by qualified personnel only and care
must be taken when handling lithium batteries. For more information on battery
replacement and disposal considerations, please refer to the following link:

CAUTION
NOTE: Make sure that all local and national electrical standards are met
when installing the unit. Contact your local authorities to determine which
codes apply
Power
The unit can be powered by DC power only, voltage range: 22~28VDC, compatible with most controller DC systems. The power conditioning circuitry inside the unit is accomplished by a switching power supply. The peak starting current can be as high as 2A.
Fusing Requirements
If the display does not come on within 5 seconds of powering up, remove power. An internal fuse will prevent damage if the polarity of the DC power is incorrect. Check wiring for proper connections and try to power up again.
High Voltage
An Internal fuse will prevent damage for overcurrent conditions however it isn’t guaranteed. DC voltage sources should provide proper isolation from main AC power and similar hazards.
Emergency Stop
A Hard-wired EMERGENCY STOP should be fitted in any system using HMI to comply with ICS Safety Recommendations.
Supply Voltage Condition
Do not power the unit and inductive DC loads, or input circuitry to the controller, with the same power supply. Note: The 24 VDC output from some controllers may not have enough current to power the unit.
Wire Routing
- Power wire length should be minimized (Max: 500m shielded, 300m unshielded).
- Please use twisted pair cables for power wire and signal wire and conform to the impedance matching.
- If wiring is to be exposed to lightning or surges, use appropriate surge suppression devices.
- Keep AC, high energy, and rapidly switching DC power wiring separated from signal wires.
- Add a resistor and capacitor in the parallel connection between the ungrounded DC power supply and the frame ground. This provides a path for static and high frequency dissipation.
Typical values to use are 1M Ohm and 4700pF.
Hardware Considerations
The system designer should be aware that devices in Controller systems could fail and thereby create an unsafe condition. Furthermore, electrical interference in an operator interface can lead to equipment start-up, which could result in property damage and/or physical injury to the operator. If you use any programmable control systems that require an operator, be aware that this potential safety hazard exists and take appropriate precautions. Although the specific design steps depend on your particular application, the following precautions generally apply to installation of solid-state programmable control devices, and conform to the guidelines for installation of Controllers recommended in NEMA ICS 3-304 Control Standards
Programming Considerations
To conform with ICS Safety Recommendations, checks should be placed in the controller to ensure that all writable registers that control critical parts of plant or machinery have limit checks built into the program, with an out- of-limit safe shut down procedure to ensure safety of personnel.
