# Smart HMI X1 Wi-Fi & BLE Industrial HMI Controller Datasheet

## Product Overview

**Smart HMIX1** is a **Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE)–based industrial HMI controller** with an **integrated touchscreen**, designed for **machine monitoring, data acquisition, and edge‑level automation** in industrial and commercial environments.

The controller features a rich set of I/O interfaces including **8 analog inputs**, **8 digital inputs**, **1 × RS‑485 interface**, and **4 digital outputs**, enabling seamless integration with sensors, meters, actuators, and legacy industrial equipment. This makes Smart HMIX1 an ideal choice for applications requiring **real‑time data visualization, control logic execution, and local decision‑making**.

With its intuitive touchscreen interface, users can **monitor live signals, configure thresholds, trigger outputs, and visualize machine or process status** directly on the device without relying on external HMIs or PLCs. Wi‑Fi connectivity enables cloud and local server integration, while BLE allows **secure local commissioning, diagnostics, and maintenance**.

Designed as an **edge automation controller**, Smart HMIX1 continues to operate independently once configured, ensuring reliable control even during network interruptions. Its compact, industrial‑ready design makes it suitable for **smart factories, building automation systems, energy monitoring panels, and retrofit industrial control projects**.

Smart HMIX1 bridges the gap between traditional control panels and modern Industrial IoT platforms by combining **HMI, I/O control, and wireless connectivity** into a single, scalable solution.
