HORNER X2 is a small compact industrial panel with a 2.2" monochrome display. It combines a logic control system (HORNER PLC) and an operator control interface (HMI) in a single device. Depending on the model, the number and type of analog and digital inputs and outputs can be selected. If the built-in I/Os are not sufficient for a specific application, they can be expanded via CAN or serial interfaces.
HORNER X2 is suitable for smaller local applications that require both control and visualization. It is ideal for environments where a monochrome display and simple graphical representation are sufficient. Thanks to the combination of a 2.2" display, integrated I/Os, and expandability, it represents a compact "all-in-one" solution for efficient automation.

Key features:
- 2.2" monochrome screen (128 x 64 px), 20 control buttons
- 2 models according to I/O combination:
- HE-X2A: 12x DI (24 VDC, 4x HSC, 500 kHz), 12x DO (2x PWM), 4x AI (0-20 mA, 4-20 mA, PT100 RTD, 12 bit), 2x AO (4-20 mA, 12 bit)
- HE-X2R: 12x DI (24 VDC, 4x HSC, 500 kHz), 2x DO (24 VDC, 2x PWM, 65 kHz), 6x DO relé (3 A), 4x AI (0-20 mA, 4-20 mA, PT100 RTD, 12 bit), 2x AO (4-20 mA, 12 bit)
- 2x serial ports: 1x RS232 + 1x RS485 (shared MJ1/2 connector with two simultaneously available RS232 and RS485 ports)
- 1x CAN port (via RJ45)
- 1x USB Mini-B
- Power supply 24 VDC ± 20 %, panel mounting (výřez 90,5 x 119,5 mm) or DIN rail mounting, operating temperature from -10 to 60 °C
- Programming in Cscape (IEC 61131-3), support for Ladder diagram
Why choose X2:
- All-in-one: PLC + HMI + I/O + communication interfaces
- Easy deployment: programming and visualization in free and intuitive software (Cscape)
- Low system cost: no need to purchase a separate HMI, external I/Os, or additional licenses
- Suitable for simpler tasks: a reliable control system available for operations where a monochrome display and basic visualization are sufficient
- Connectivity: built-in serial ports, USB, and CAN (CsCAN) for easy integration with other devices
- Scalability and compatibility: I/O expansion via CAN or serial communication, fully compatible with other Horner devices
- Space-saving: very compact design – ideal for confined control cabinets and mobile equipment
The X2 panel is part of the so-called "Micro OCS Series", in which Horner offers compact panels X2, X4, X5, X7 and X10. All of them feature an integrated PLC, HMI, I/O, and communication interfaces. These panels differ in display size, number and type of inputs/outputs, and expansion capabilities.
