EA KIT120-5
GENERAL
The EA KIT120 is a fully assembled control and operating unit with a variety of integrated functions. The
display has very compact dimensions and offers excellent supertwist contrast, which means the unit can
be put into operation immediately. It is controlled via the standard RS-232 interface. In addition to
complete graphics routines for display output, the graphics unit also contains a wide variety of fonts.
Graphics commands similar to high-level language are used for programming. There is no longer any
need for the time-consuming programming of character sets and graphics routines. The ease of use
offered by macros and input via touch panel make it a real power display. To install it, you simply insert
it into the opening in the front panel.
HARDWARE
The graphics unit is designed to work with an operating voltage of +5V. A supply voltage of 9..36V is also
possible. Serial asynchronous data transfer is carried out in RS-232 format. The transmission format is
set permanently to 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. Rates between 1200 baud and 115,200 baud
can be set using a PC. RTS and CTS handshake lines are available.
Data format:
TOUCH PANEL
The EA KIT120-5LEDTP version is equipped with an integrated touch panel. You can make entries by
touching the display. The labeling of the „keys“ is flexible and can also be changed during runtime
(different languages, icons). The drawing of the individual „keys“ and the labeling or grouping of several
fields is handled by the integrated software.
SOFTWARE
The operating unit is programmed by means of commands, such as Draw a rectangle from (0,0) to
(64,15) . No additional software or drivers are required. Strings can be placed with pixel accuracy. Text
and graphics can be combined at any time. Up to 16 different character sets can be used. Each one can
be zoomed from 2 to 4 times. When the 2-times zoom is used with the largest character set (16x8), the
words and numbers displayed will fill the screen (= 16x32).
ACCESSORIES
Floppy disk for creating macros and setting the baud rate
*)
A floppy disk (EA DISK240
) is required for macro programming. This converts the commands entered
in a text file into a code that can be read by the graphics unit, and programs them into the EEPROM.
If you require a different baud rate to the factory setting of 9600 baud, you need the floppy disk again.
Cable for PC
To enable simple connection to PCs (macro programming), we provide a 1.5m cable and a 9-pin SUB-
D female connector. Simply insert it into COM 1 or COM 2 and get started. There is also a 10-pin socket
connector for the 5 inputs and outputs (with C-MOS level) for this cable.
