AutomationDirect’s C-more EA9 series of touchscreen human-machine interfaces (HMIs) now include 7-in. widescreen TFT models. These WVGA panels fit the same enclosure cutout as the EA9-T6CL panels and are direct replacements with a larger screen area. The C-more 7-in. widescreen touch panels are equipped with 800 MHz CPUs, 64k colors, and reliable 50,000-hour non-replaceable backlights. Hardware options include three serial ports plus one 10/100BaseT Ethernet port on the full-featured EA9-T7CL model, one serial port plus one 10/100BaseT Ethernet port on the basic EA9-T7CL-R model, two USB 2.0 ports (one type A, and one type B), and one slot for SD memory card. An audio output port, when attached to an amplifier and speaker(s), can play warning sounds or pre-recorded messages. All touch panels are 12 to 24 Vdc powered; an optional attachable ac power adapter is available to power the panels from a 100 to 240 Vac 50/60 Hz voltage source.
