22-HIM-C2S New Factory Sealed 22HIMC2S Panel Mount LCD HIM
PRODUCT DETAILS
22-HIM-C2S — Compact LCD Human Interface Module for 22-Series AC Drives
The 22-HIM-C2S is a compact panel-mount human interface module for the 22-series (22A, 22B, 22C) AC drives. It provides a 2-line LCD display and a simplified keypad for parameter access, drive start/stop control, and fault diagnostics. Compared to the full-size HIM available for the same drive platform, the C2S trades a smaller display for a more compact physical footprint — relevant in panels where space around the drive's front face is limited by adjacent equipment or enclosure walls.

Where a Compact HIM Makes Sense
The full-featured HIM with a larger graphic display is the right choice for commissioning-heavy applications where parameter browsing speed and screen real estate matter. The 22-HIM-C2S serves a different need: drives mounted in dense panels, OEM machine enclosures with limited front-panel space, or installations where the HIM is rarely accessed after initial setup and a minimal interface is sufficient for occasional fault checks and parameter adjustments.
The smaller display means navigating multi-level parameter menus takes more keystrokes than on a larger screen — each menu level shows less context at once. For applications with frequent, in-depth parameter work, this is a real usability tradeoff. For applications where the HIM is mainly used to start/stop the drive locally and occasionally check a fault code, the compact size and lower cost outweigh the slower menu navigation.
Parameter Navigation and Backup
Navigation uses up/down arrows to scroll through parameter groups and numeric values, with Enter to select and edit. The 2-line display shows the parameter number on one line and its current value on the second — switching between viewing and editing requires stepping through this structure methodically. Fault codes display automatically when a fault occurs, interrupting whatever screen was active.
The parameter copy function works the same as on larger HIMs: upload the complete parameter set from a configured drive into the HIM's memory, then download it to another drive of the same model. This is the fastest way to commission multiple identical drives on a machine with several axes running the same motor and load profile, or to restore a replacement drive's configuration after a field swap without re-entering every parameter manually.
FAQ
Q: Can the 22-HIM-C2S be used with a 755 series drive?
No. This HIM is built for the 22-series drive's DSI port and parameter structure. The 755 series uses a different HIM family with its own connector and software interface — they are not interchangeable.
Q: Is the parameter copy function compatible across different 22-series models — for example, copying from a 22B to a 22C?
Parameter copy generally works reliably between drives of the same model and firmware revision. Copying between different series (22A to 22B, or 22B to 22C) may not transfer correctly since the parameter structures differ between platforms. Verify compatibility before relying on cross-model parameter copy in a production setting.
Q: Can the HIM be mounted remotely from the drive rather than directly on its face?
Yes, using an appropriate remote mounting kit and cable for the 22-series DSI interface. This allows the HIM to be placed in an accessible panel location while the drive itself is mounted in a less accessible spot.
Q: Does removing the HIM during operation affect the running drive?
No. The drive continues operating normally when the HIM is disconnected, provided the drive's control source isn't configured to require the HIM for run commands. If the HIM is the active control source, removing it will stop command input — check the drive's control source parameter before disconnecting during operation.
