Display and Interface Design

The 10.4-inch TFT screen delivers clear graphics for operator menus. An analog resistive touch surface registers input even when you wear gloves. Furthermore, the CCFL backlight lasts up to 50,000 hours of continuous use.

Connectivity and Data Exchange

Two RS-232 ports support serial programming and printer connections. A single RS-485 port handles multi-drop industrial networks. Meanwhile, the Ethernet port allows fast data transfer with host systems. You can also insert a CompactFlash card for data logging or screen backups.

Memory and Energy Backup

GE IC752BDT100-FD includes 8 MB of DRAM for active screen processing. An additional 4 MB of Flash memory stores your application files. The internal lithium battery keeps the real-time clock running during power loss. This battery typically lasts five years under normal conditions.

Installation and Power Requirements

Mount this unit into a standard 10.4-inch panel cutout. The device draws only 25 watts from a 24 VDC source. Consequently, you can power it from the same supply as your PLC. For reliable operation, use a fused isolation transformer on the input line.

Why Choose This Terminal

This operator interface replaces older QuickPanel models without rewiring efforts. Its glove-friendly touchscreen works well in cold or dirty environments. Therefore, manufacturers prefer this unit for assembly lines and packaging machines.
