The decisive attribute in this vertical is software and runtime compatibility, not electrical specs. Read the compatibility column before the price column.

The same thread records HMI price shock elsewhere in the market - a Parker CTC HMI going from $600 to $12,500, and a 12-month lead time on ASEM panel PCs. Used pricing is the hedge against that. | Not established in research |
