PLC and control in one panel. I/O according to your task.
HORNER CANVAS 4 combines PLC, 3,5″ color touch screen and five physical buttons. You control a small machine or fixture and monitor operating values from one place. There are six designs on offer: from the model without built-in I/O to variants with digital, analog and temperature inputs.
Cscape 10 for both the PLC program and the HMI screens is free with each panel. You do not buy a programming license. In addition, CANVAS includes WebMI+, MQTT, Enhanced IEC and J1939 by default; external and cloud services have their own terms and conditions.
Verify CANVAS 4 on your own task.
Free loan of selected products for 14 days is arranged individually according to availability. We will confirm the specific model, date and conditions in advance. FOXON will help with the selection and the first project.
Introducing the CANVAS series
The short video Horner introduces the CANVAS series, its operation and basic equipment. It shows more models of the series. English.
Applications in small machines and systems
Pump switching according to time or event
Starting at a specified time, running for a set time or reacting to a level and other input signal. The operator sets the values and sees the pump status on the display.
Controlling a small machine or fixture
Starting the work cycle, continuity of individual steps and counting of pieces. The operator changes the length of the step or the number of repetitions on the panel.
Measurement and simple regulation
Display of pressure, temperature or other quantity and reaction to the set limit. The sensor type and signal range must match the selected built-in or extension I/O.
Local equipment monitoring
Input states, error messages and common settings on one display. You can prepare the range of screens and controls according to the specific device.
You create a function for your technology in Cscape. Select the necessary sensors and control elements according to the device.
Trial loan and training
Free loan by agreement
Free loan of selected products for 14 days is arranged individually according to availability. We will confirm the specific model, date and conditions in advance.
Training in Liberec
We train individuals and groups in our training room in Liberec. We will agree on the scope and date according to the experience of the participants and their tasks.

Signal types and wiring limitations
The numbers and types of I/O refer to a specific order code. The -00 model does not have a built-in I/O. -02/-03/-04 models support 0-10 V, 0-20 mA and 4-20 mA analog inputs; direct measurement of Pt100 and thermocouples, choose -05/-06. For -05, the range is also selected using jumpers; -06 has its own connection of universal channels. The voltage and current terminals of the same analog output are not two independent channels. Quick features share selected digital channels. Check the connection, signal combination and current limits in the datasheet of the exact code.

First project in Cscape
Download Cscape from Horner. You need a manufacturer account to download Cscape. The CANVAS tutorial shows PC connection, hardware configuration, control logic and creating the first screen.
Your first test task
When first verifying, start with one simple function. For example, an output that switches on for a set time after pressing a button or changing the input signal.
- Set the switching time on the display and show the input and output status.
- Handle the trigger condition and timer in the program.
- On the test load, verify switching on, switching off after a time has elapsed and changing the settings on the display.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need separate PLC or HMI?
CANVAS 4 contains both PLC and touch HMI. You do not need separate PLC and HMI for the same task. The built-in I/O depends on the code: -00 does not have them, other variants have different combinations of signals.
What is free and what is charged separately?
Standard Cscape is free with each panel. You can create the PLC program and the HMI screens without a paid programming license. Additional features have their own license terms. Free loan of selected products for 14 days is arranged individually according to availability. We will confirm the specific model, date and conditions in advance. Accessories, training and the work of technicians will be priced according to the scope.
Which design to choose for Pt100 or thermocouple?
For direct temperature measurement, select universal analog inputs of model -05 or -06. We compare the sensor type, number of channels and connection with the datasheet of the given variant.
Is the cheapest option ready for direct sensor connection?
The basic HE-CV-035C-00 has no built-in inputs and outputs. You then connect the sensors and controlled elements via suitable external I/O or choose another design CANVAS 4.
How can I check trial loan availability?
Click Arrange a trial loan and describe your application. We will check a suitable loan model, availability, dates and conditions. Trial loans of selected products are arranged individually.

VIDEO: Tips and tricks for setting up HORNER PLCs with display, inputs and outputs
HORNER PLCs combine machine control, operator display and inputs/outputs in one device. If you need a compact solution for a smaller machine, part of a production line, a test station or modernization of older equipment, you do not have to source and combine a separate PLC, HMI panel and I/O modules.
The manufacturer’s training videos show how to connect the panel, work in Cscape, set up communication, use WebMI and work with basic inputs and outputs. They are especially useful during initial commissioning, so you do not have to figure everything out by trial and error.
Review: Horner Canvas Series PLC with Integrated HMI – Part 1: PLC
Horner PLCs with integrated HMI are new not only to our e-shop, but also to our market.
