Page 8: Introduction
Introduction Overview 1.1. The SLCD+ controller provides complete Graphical User Interface for embedded systems using QVGA or smaller LCD panels. Using the SLCD is simply the quickest way to generate a user interface without a lot of graphical programming. It has a small size to fit in space-constrained applications. -

Page 10: Electrical Characteristics
The SLCD+ board takes in two voltages. One is simply passed though to the backlight inverter, and is typically either 5V or 12V. The SLCD+ itself requires 5V. For other hardware options, contact Reach Technology Inc. The SLCD+ is designed for panels with VCC of 3.3V and built-in DC-DC converters and therefore do not need high positive or negative voltages. -

Page 17: System Overview
System Overview General SLCD+ Controller 4.1. The SCLD acts as a "smart terminal" and is generally connected to a host processor that implements the desired Graphical User Interface (GUI) by issuing commands to the SLCD+ and processing button press responses from the SLCD+. In this manual, the term "host"... -
Page 18: 4.2.3. Developing The Application Gui With An Embedded Controller As Host
As shipped, the serial port is set to 115,200 baud, 8 bit, 1 start, 1 stop, no parity. There are two DB9 connectors on the "PowerCom 4" board. Connect the PC using a straight through cable to the DB9 marked "MAIN" (P1). A USB-to-serial adapter cable can also be used and plugged directly into this connector. -
