GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 4.3-inch G3 Kadet 2 was designed for applications in which available
mounting space is at a premium. Though diminutive in size, the G304K2 boasts
a bright TFT display with 32K-color support. With a resolution of 480 x 272, the
Kadet 2's 4.3-inch display has a higher resolution and better image clarity than
most 6-inch HMIs.
The G304K2 performs the functions of a multiple protocol converter, using
two high-speed RS-232/422/485 communications ports and a 10 Base-T/100
Base-TX Ethernet port. The Ethernet port supports up to four protocols
simultaneously, allowing dissimilar Ethernet based products to communicate
with one another.
The G3 Kadet 2 range of HMIs is programmed with Red Lion's free Crimson
3 software. Crimson 3 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.
