The Original New Omron NB5Q-TW00B is a 5.6-inch touch screen HMI from the NB Series programmable terminals, designed for cost-effective machine-level operator control and visualization. Featuring a TFT color display with 65,536 colors and analog resistive touch technology, this HMI delivers clear, responsive operator interface for small to mid-sized machine automation applications. The TW00B variant provides a built-in RS-232C serial port for direct connection to Omron PLCs and third-party controllers, with USB slave (mini-B) port for PC connectivity. Powered by NB-Designer software (free download), it provides an affordable entry into Omron's HMI ecosystem. This product has been discontinued and is available as a spare part. The recommended replacement is NB5Q-TW00B-V1.
