Operator Interfaces Introduction & Selection Guide Operator panels are supplied with different options for connection to the controller - e.g. with a parallel interface for direct connection to the digital outputs on the controller, with a serial interface including drivers to most PLCs or with VT100 terminal emulation. Programming of texts is perfectly straightforward and is done either with an ordinary PC or by connecting a PC keyboard directly. If display message printouts including the time are required for documentation or data-logging purposes, a printer can be connected. Printer output Acoustic alert Variable digits As and where desired, the operator can key his way directly into the PLC and change parameters or implement pre-programmed functions - and here it is possible to choose between panels with 4 or 24 keys. Serial interface The information is transferred from a PLC or other controller and converted to clear, simple messages on the display - as fixed texts or a combination of fixed text and current measured variable. Operator panels have 2 lines of text with 20 characters and a capacity of up to 200 messages. Each message can include up to 16 dynamic digits. Parallel interface Brodersen message displays and operator panels provide the operator with relevant information about e.g. operating conditions and actual measured variables, when the plant is operating normally, and alerts the operator in case of a malfunction situation. Real-time clock & calendar SELECTION GUIDE The elegant design and small dimensions of the Brodersen message displays have been tailor-made for incorporation in a console or control panel. Brodersen also manufactures message displays and operator panels with BITBUS™ interface and industrial PCs.

Operator Interfaces VT100 Terminal Emulation REAR PANEL/CONNECTIONS UCT-33/36 message display and operator panel is compatible with a VT100 terminal. Due to physical and functional limitations only a subset of the VT100 control commands are applicable to this device. UCT-33/36 can be used as a nonintelligent man machine interface in industrial installations. The display acts as an output device for a "host", e.g. a PLC or a computer - data coming from the host is displayed on the screen. Simultaneously the keypad can be used as an input device to the host - information entered through the keyboard...
