Introduction

The HMI comes with an 800 x 480 high-resolution TFT display module and a IP65 waterproof grade. The elegance in its design coupled with the flexibility of the iFACE editing software meets user satisfaction in any application requirement.

Warning
Please read this manual before continuing with installation or operation of the device.
General Guide

  • Installation and operation of the device must be done by professionally trained staff.

  • Installation of the device must follow the instructions as printed in this manual.

  • If installation of the device occurs outside the suggested storage temperature range of the device, it may cause the LCD to malfunction.

  • If installation of the device occurs outside the suggested storage humidity range of the device, it may cause the touch panel to accumulate moisture which may shorten its
    product lifespan.

  • Installation of the device must be kept away from the risk of any liquid or metal particles getting into the device. Foreign particles may cause internal components to short circuit and thus damage the device or even catch fire.

  • The device must be installed on a stable and flat surface.

  • Installation of the device must be kept away from the risk of corrosion, explosion, or heavy electronic and magnetic fields. It must also be kept away from high humidity and extreme shifts in temperature.

  • The liquid in the LCD screen is very hazardous. If leakage is found, avoid contact with skin.
    At the chance of accidental contact, please immediately rinse with water. If the material comes in contact with eyes, please use water to rinse out the material and immediately seek medical assistance.

  • Nearby equipment must be installed at a safe and appropriate distance with adequate protection to reduce local interference with the device.

Power Supply

  • The device is designed with an input power of DC 24V. If the supply voltage is outside of the DC 24V +/- 20% range, it may result in damage or malfunction to the device. Therefore, please confirm that the voltage is correct before powering the device on. Please also ensure that the supplied power is stable during device operation.

Installation:

  • Please avoid placing communication lines in the same conduit as the power lines and high voltage lines. Isolated lines are suggested to reduce surrounding noise interference.

Operation

  • The device should not be used as a main control trigger for any emergency override or safety-related operations.
  • Please note that the touch panel on the device is made of standard glass. Please do not use forceful pressure or sharp objects to contact or hammer the screen.

Service and Maintenance

  • Please do not allow any non-trained staff members to perform the maintenance servicing.
  • Please ensure that the power is switched off before performing any machine cleaning or repairing.
  • When cleaning the front panel, please use a soft cloth and mild detergent to wipe gently, avoiding any forceful pressing or rubbing.
  •  Please do not use batteries with poor quality.

Waste and Recycling

  • Please adhere to local regulations when recycling device.
  • The screen, lithium battery, and capacitors contain hazardous material to individual health and local environment, and must be disposed responsibly.

Grounding
In order to maintain the operational condition and functioning of the HMI hardware components, please ensure proper power grounding.
Please ensure that the cable connecting the FG power terminal to the ground has a cable resistance lower than 100Ω.

Installing Procedure

  1. Check the cut-out size of the device then make the proper cut-out on the setting plate.
    Lodge the device into the cut-out on the setting plate. (Unit = mm).

  2. Fasten the device to the setting plate by tightening the screws on the back of the device.
    Please tighten all screws evenly instead of tightening each screw one by one. If the screws are not tightened evenly, it may cause distortion damage to the device.

Procedure

Power Connection

The device requires a power voltage of DC 24V (+/-20%). For a power consumption of 8W on the N07 device, a power supply of 10W or above is recommended. For a power consumption of 10W on the N10 device, a power supply of 12W or above is recommended.
Importance Notice
It is recommended that the power plug must be connected to the device power terminal prior to connecting to the power source.
Power-connecting steps

  1. Remove the power plug from the power terminal of the device.
  2. Loosen the three screws on the power plug.
  3. Strip the cable to expose the copper wire to about 7-8mm.
  4. Insert the exposed copper wire into the three openings on the power plug.
  5. Retighten the three screws on the power plug.
  6. Plug the power plug back into the power terminal of the device.

Note
The power plug is included and already plugged into the power terminal of the device.

Ethernet Setting
Ethernet settings include [IP Address], [Gateway], [Port], [Retry Times] and [Time out]. In order to ensure a smooth and stable connection, communication parameters must correspond with the connecting controller. Click the IP address field to enter the IP address. The IP address should follow the format: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX. Each XXX should be less than or equal to “255”. The system will automatically jump to the next set of XXX if values are accepted (if the input value is greater than 255, the system will require users to re- enter values). Press the key to jump to the next set of XXX values and the key to edit a previous set.
