Visual representation of machine operation status is enhanced with visibility increased by changing the color of the backlight.

Pro-face, a global leader of Human Machine Interfaces (HMI) and factory data communication solutions, designed and produced by Digital Electronics Corporation, WITH global head office in Osaka, Japan, announces first release to its product lineup, 3.4-inch Compact Graphic Operator Interface, the GP4100 Series. Four new models of the GP4100 Series will be released in January 2010 and TWO more in March 2010.

GP4100 Series are equipped with a 3.4-inch, 16-grayscale and high-resolution of 200 x 80 pixels display offering high quality display capability of full graphic and text data, as well as touch operation. High quality screens with expanded support of Windows image and Bitmap fonts can be made even on a small HMI display. Two types of 3-color LED backlight, Green, Orange and Red or White, Pink and Red can provide operators with easy-to-see operation status in distance.

There are three types of communication models, RS-232C, RS422 and RS-485 with isolation selectable for your choice of controller and application requirements.

Useful new functions to support the small-sized HMI, such as scrolling display of alarm messages, history logging of alarms, recipe functions and clock synchronization with controller data provide full functionality for HMI.

Two USB interfaces of a Type A and mini-B are standard. As well as support for data transfer from PC via the mini-B port. Support for a USB memory data transfer via Type A interface does not require a setup engineer to take a PC to factory floor to update its programs. The Type A interface can be used to connect various devices, such as an USB code reader and serial communication device via a USB-SIO conversion cable.

GP4100 Series is supported with a new version of widely used editor software in the industry, GP-Pro EX Ver. 2.6. The Limited Edition of the software can be tested using free download service from the Pro-face web site.
