UI Customization and HMI Integration

Smart Android panels are ideal for creating intuitive, touchscreen-based Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI). You can:

  • Build native Android apps using Java/Kotlin.

  • Use web-based UIs (HTML5/JavaScript) hosted locally or from a server.

  • Integrate third-party control apps if protocol and system compatibility is verified.

Panels like Portworld’s YC-SM08P and YC-SM55P support multi-touch, customizable UIs, and Android 11 OS, making them ideal for responsive, modern interfaces.

Ensure Power and Mounting Compatibility

Most smart panels today support PoE (Power over Ethernet), simplifying installation by combining power and data through a single cable. Others may require 12V/24V DC power input. Make sure your system layout accommodates the power needs and wall mounting requirements (such as 86-box compatibility).

Test and Optimize Integration

Before full deployment:

  • Use test environments to verify protocol communication and UI behavior.

  • Monitor performance metrics like latency, connection stability, and error handling.

  • Ensure OTA update capability for future firmware upgrades.
