GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The G303 Operator Interface Terminal combines unique capabilities normally
expected from high-end units with a very affordable price. It is built around a
high performance core with integrated functionality. This core allows the G303
to perform many of the normal features of the Paradigm range of Operator
Interfaces while improving and adding new features.
The G303 is able to communicate with many different types of hardware using
high-speed RS232/422/485 communications ports and Ethernet 10 Base T/100
Base-TX communications. In addition, the G303 features USB for fast downloads
of configuration files and access to trending and data logging. A CompactFlash
socket is provided so that Flash cards can be used to collect your trending and data
logging information as well as to store larger configuration files.
In addition to accessing and controlling of external resources, the G303
allows a user to easily view and enter information. The unit uses a Liquid
Crystal Display (LCD) module, which is easily readable in both indoor and
outdoor applications. Users can enter data through the front panel 32-button
keypad that has user identifiable keys.
SAFETY SUMMARY
All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in the

provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Do not use the controller to directly command motors, valves, or other
