Before ELEKproTEK, I was traveling to small towns across the country commissioning SCADA systems for water treatment plants. ???? Sometimes I was in a dusty control room at 2 AM… Other times I was out in the middle of nowhere, trying to figure out why a sensor wasn’t reporting or why the PLC wasn’t talking to the HMI. ????? That experience taught me how to troubleshoot anything — ? Comms failures ? Instrumentation quirks ? Configuration issues ? And a whole lot of human error I didn’t have a full team. I didn’t have a manual. What I did have was grit, curiosity, and the mindset that failure wasn’t an option. That’s the foundation ELEKproTEK was built on. And now we bring that same level of precision and real-world problem solving to every project — from residential service calls to industrial integration. ?? Want to dive deeper into SCADA screen design, user flow, and real-time operator efficiency? Join me in Houston, July 23–26 at OT SCADA Con, where I’ll be speaking about how to design smarter, cleaner, operator-first SCADA systems. ???? https://hubs.ly/Q03df0S80 USE CODE NAOMI for 15% OFF #ELEKproTEK #SCADA #SCADAScreens #SystemIntegration #PLCProgramming #TroubleshootingSkills #AutomationLife #ControlsEngineer #WaterTreatmentTech #BlueCollarTech #SCADASquad #ElectricalInnovation #TechInTheTrades #OTSCADACon #FromTheField #Houston2025 ??????????

This time I did HMIs. Between SCADA, PLC and HMI softwares you can see the point of why systems integrators exist. Any machines you want integrated into your process have some combination of PLC and HMI. Here is the starting list of HMI OEMs, a model or series they produce and the software needed to design the application. We should just call these programmable screen but PS already stands for power supply. HMI stands for human machine interface but these are also called OIT Operator Interface Terminal, OP Operator Panel, OIP Operator Interface Panel, GT Graphical Terminal, CS Control Station; It's all the same thing. Some HMIs have drivers to connect to a lot of PLCs and some will only connect with PLCs of the same OEM. Theres a hybrid also now where the HMI touchscreen and the controller are one unit. Maybe that's my next carousel is PLC+HMI combo units and their OEMs and softwares. Then I'll do VFDs. Nikki Gonzales Weintek USA, Inc.
