Take your EXTER/E1000 applications to the next level!

A guide to help you upgrade your EXTER/E1000 HMI solution to X2 HMIs and iX software 

EXTER/E1000 was introduced in 2005 and has achieved great popularity during the years on the market thanks to ease-of-use, solid functionality and reliable operation. Now key components have become difficult to source and the technical risk of maintaining the EXTER/E1000 product platform becomes too large.

Therefore, EOL is announced by 1. January 2018 along with the related dates:

  • End Of Life (EOL): 2018-01-01
  • Last Time Buy (LTB): 2018-12-31
  • Last Time Delivery (LTD): 2019-03-31
  • End Of Repair (EOR): 2022-12-31
  • End Of Service (EOS): 2022-12-31

Listed below you will find information and guide lines to help you successfully migrate your existing EXTER/E1000 HMI solution to the X2 hardware and iX software platform.

The technical identical panel series has been marketed under both the EXTER and E1000 brand names.
