EA KIT160-6
GENERAL
The EA KIT160 is a fully assembled control and operating unit with a variety of integrated functions. The
display has very compact dimensions and offers excellent super-twist contrast, which means the unit can
be put into operation immediately. It is controlled via the standard RS-232 or RS-422 interface. In addition
to complete graphics routines for display output, the operating 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.
HARDWARE
The control panel is designed to work with an operating voltage of +5V. A supply voltage of 9..35V is also
possible. Serial asynchronous data transfer is carried out in RS-232 or RS-422 format. The transmission
format is set permanently to 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. Rates between 1,200 baud and
115,200 baud can be selected using a PC. RTS and CTS handshake lines are available.
Data format:
TOUCH PANEL
The EA KIT160-6 LEDTP version is equipped with an integrated touch panel. You can make entries and
menu settings 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 control panel 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 8 times. When the 8-times zoom is used with the largest character set (16x8), the
words and numbers displayed will fill the screen (= 128x64).
SETTING THE CONTRAST
The contrast of the display is set by means of the integrated potentiometer and remains constant across
the entire temperature range as a result of the on-board temperature compensation. If required, you can
connect an external potentiometer (25 kOhm) at the eyelets (J11). The solder straps LB 6 and LB 7 must
be open (see page 4).
ACCESSORIES
Floppy disk for macro creation
*)
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 operating unit, and programs them into the EEPROM.
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 (EA KV24-9B). Simply insert it into COM 1 or COM 2 and get started. Note: The
cable is not suitable for the RS-422 version EA OPT-RS4224.
