To properly dissipate the heat produced by the GF_VEDO_HL terminals, there should be a minimum distance (“d”) of 10 cm between the rear protective surfaces of the terminals and the panels around them. Figura 5 Instructions for panel installation: • make the edges of the hole for the panel perfectly smooth and flat •...

3.5.2 Autostart Port GF_VEDO HL uses the optional Autostart output to activate an external relay by means of a programmable inter- nal timer. Activation requires that only the relay be powered, and to run the external devices you have to use the free contact of the relay (activation time approx.
3.5.4 RS-485 (COM1) port GF_VEDO HL uses the RS-485 port to dialog according to OSI specifications at the physical level defined by stan- dard EIA-485. The RS-485 port is optically isolated and allows dialog from 9.6 kBaud to 115 kBaud via an D-sub 9 pin (male). Signal assignment is shown in Table 8.
3.5.6 Configurable Serial Port (COM3) The configurable serial port lets the GF_VEDO HL communicate via one of the following protocols: • default RS-485 (optically isolated, with baud rate from 9.6 kBaud to 115 kBaud) • RS-232 (not optically isolated, with baud rate from 9.6 kBaud to 115 kBaud) •...

3.5.7 CAN port The optional CAN port lets GF_VEDO HL dialog via the serial standard (ISO 11898-1 of 2003) for the CAN (Controller Area Network) field bus, also known as CAN-bus. This protocol is specifically designed for excellent operation even in environments with strong electromagnetic noise, and can use a balanced potential line such as an RS-485 as means of transmission.
3.5.9 USB port 3.6.7 USB Port GF_VEDO HL uses USB ports to dialog via USB (Universal Serial Bus) serial communication standard. GF_VEDO HL terminals support version USB 2.0 (transmission up to 480 Mbit/s). The USB port connector is type USB-A (4 pins). Signal assignment is shown in Table 14. Voltage for VBUS is approximately +5V with maximum current of 500mA.
3.5.10 Matrix Keyboard port (KEY & LED) GF_VEDO HL uses the KEy & LED port to communicate with series TF keyboards. It uses a high-speed full-duplex synchronous serial interface (SPI) with proprietary communication protocol. This allows scanning of the key matrix and control of off/on status of LEDs on the keyboard. The connector is an 8-pin RJ45 without LED, which allows keyboard communication and power.
3.6 Access to internal system resources you can replace the battery and configure the COM3 serial by removing the rear cover of the terminal as shown in Figure 21. TURN OFF the GF_VEDO HL terminal before loosening the screws. Access to internal resources of GF_VEDO HL terminals Figure 21 - 3.6.1 System memory: SODIMM GF_VEDO HL has a DDR1 SODIMM (Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module) system memory, which is more...
3.6.3 Internal battery The GF_VEDO HL panels use an internal lithium battery (non-rechargeable; replaceable). This lets you maintain data in the static RAM memory when the GF_VEDO HL is switched off (for a maximum of 3 years). To replace the battery when necessary, do as follows: ·...
As stated in the Preliminary Warnings of these Instructions for Use, correct interpretation of the Controller order code allows the hardware configuration for the controller to be identified immediately and so it is essential to quote the order code each time the Gefran Customer Care Service is contacted for assistance with any problems.
