MODEL 304K - OPERATOR INTERFACE WITH TFT DISPLAY
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 4.3-inch CTVUE-304K was designed for applications in which available
mounting space is at a premium. Though diminutive in size, the 304K boasts a
bright TFT display with full 256-color support. With a resolution of 480 x 272,
the 4.3-inch display has a higher resolution and better image clarity than most
6-inch HMIs.
The 304K offers two high-speed serial ports in the form of one RS-232 and
one RS-232/422/485 ports. This allows the operator interface to simultaneously
communicate with devices from different manufacturers, as well as to perform
protocol conversion.
The 304K is programmed with CTVue Configurator Software. The software
offers easy to use drag and drop communications configuration, while the
embedded image library allows the programmer to create intuitive screens and
prompts for the operator.
