Multi-feature Touch Panel

Dec. 1, 2005
The vendor’s next-generation operator touch panel line, C-more, is available in either grayscale (15 shades of gray) or full color (256 to 64,536 colors).

STN grayscale and color displays are available in a 6-inch touch screen. Color TFT touch screens are available in 6-, 8-, 10-, 12- or 15-inch versions. Hardware features include an analog touch screen, 10Mb or 40MB project memory, serial RS232, RS422/485 and Ethernet 10/100BaseT ports, and two USB ports. Optional Compact Flash cards up to 1GB or USB memory devices can be installed in most models to accommodate alarm, event and message logging. C-more is programmed with easy-to-use Windows-based configuration software that includes 4,000 built-in symbols and 14 typefaces with hundreds of font sizes. Advanced graphic features include animation of bit maps, overlapping objects and custom object creation. High-level communication capabilities include a built-in FTP server, e-mail client and Web server. A project simulator allows the developer to view and test a C-more project on the PC screen exactly as it would appear on the touch panel, says the vendor. Prices start at $425 for the 6-inch STN grayscale unit, and the

C-more programming software is $129.
