Overview
The HMIYPCIA61 is a Schneider Harmony iPC expansion unit, order code HMIYPCIA61, providing 2 PCI slots and 1 slide-in slot for Panel 12" systems. It is classified under package type PCE and integrates via a PCI slot running at 33 MHz.
This expansion unit adds three internal slots to a Harmony iPC Panel 12" — two standard PCI slots and one slide-in slot for additional I/O or communication cards. The PCI slot operates at 33 MHz, matching the bus speed of most industrial PCI peripherals such as fieldbus interface cards, motion controllers, or data acquisition modules.
Applications
Harmony iPC expansion units are used in industrial PC and HMI systems for machine control, process visualization, and data logging. The HMIYPCIA61 fits into Panel 12" enclosures where additional PCI-based functionality — such as vision system interfaces, CANopen cards, or serial port expansion — is needed beyond the base unit's onboard ports.
