Operation

Our remote support engineers have all the knowledge needed to quickly and efficiently ascertain the situation and come up with the appropriate solution. VMI uses state-of-the-art remote diagnostics by means of a direct connection between the VMI machine installed at your site and one of VMI’s service centers. To enable this connection, an E Won internet module is required that is connected to the PLC or Ethernet hub located in the machine main cabinet. The only hardware requirement is an internet provision to the main electrical cabinet.

At VMI’s service center, all required hardware and software are installed to establish a direct contact with the PLC in your machine, but VMI’s service center can only connect to the machine if you allow access to it. Our software technicians can follow every program step in the machine’s PLC, to localize possible disturbances and give you an advice to solve the issue. If needed, VMI can change the software program remotely. All remote support actions will be executed in close cooperation with your team.
