Wiring the Touch Panel

The touch panels use a 4-pin AXlink connector for power and data. If the distance between the

panel and Central Controller exceeds power consumption limits, you must connect an optional

12 VDC power supply to the 2-pin PWR connector.

Preparing captive wires

You need a wire stripper, soldering iron, and flat-blade screwdriver to prepare and connect the

captive wires.

1. Strip 0.25 inch of wire insulation off all wires.

2. Insert each wire into the appropriate opening on the connector according to the wiring

diagrams and connector types described in this subsection.

3. Turn the flat-blade screws clockwise to secure the wire in the connector. Do not over-torque

the screws; doing so can bend the seating pin and damage the connector.

Wiring guidelines

The touch panels require 12 VDC power to operate properly. The touch panel can use either a

PSN2.8 (if the power is being supplied only to the touch panel) or a PSN6.5 power supply (if the

power is being routed through the touch panel to power another device). The Central Controller

supplies power via the AXlink cable or external 12 VDC power supply. The maximum wiring

distance between the Central Controller and touch panel is determined by power consumption,

supplied voltage, and the wire gauge used for the cable. The table below lists wire sizes and the

maximum lengths allowable between the touch panel and Central Controller.

Do not connect power to the touch panel until the wiring is complete. If you are using

a 12 VDC power supply, apply power to the touch panel only after installation is

complete.

Installation

10.4" Touch Panels

The maximum wiring lengths for using AXlink power are based on a minimum of 13.5 VDC

available at the Central Controller's power supply. Refer to the Specifications section on page 1 for

more information on power requirements.

If you install the touch panel farther away from the control system than recommended in the Wiring

Guidelines table, connect an external 12 VDC power supply to the 2-pin PWR connector on the

touch panel.

Using the PSN connector for power

To use the 2-pin mini-Phoenix power supply jack for power transfer from the PSN power supply,

the incoming PWR and GND cable from the PSN must be connected to the corresponding location

on the 2-pin AXlink connector (FIG. 6).

1. Insert the PWR and GND wires into the terminal end of the PSN 2-pin AXlink cable.

2. Tighten the clamp to secure the two wires.

3. Verify the connection of the other end to the 2-pin 3.5 mm mini-Phoenix on the PSN.

Using AXlink for data and power

Connect the Central Controller's AXlink connector to the AXlink connector on the touch panel for

data and 12 VDC power as shown in FIG. 7.

Using the (DB9) RS-232 connector for mouse control or data

The dual-function (DB9) RS-232 connector supports most standard serial mouse control devices

and RS-232 communication protocols for PC data transmission.

The following table lists (DB9) RS-232 connector pinouts and FIG. 9 shows the (DB9) RS-232

connector and power supply wiring diagram.

Use connector pins 2, 3, and 5 for data and ground. For some applications, you may need to strap

pins 7 (request to send) and 8 (clear to send) together, depending on the PC.

Never connect both power wires from the power supply and Central Controller to the

PWR terminal on the touch panel AXlink connector. Only the power supply’s PWR

wire should be connected to the touch panel AXlink connector. If both sources are

used to provide power to the touch panel, an electrical hazard is created and the

threat of both equipment damage and injury is likely.

Designing Touch Panel Pages

There are two ways to approach creating touch panel pages:

! TPDesign3 - Refer to the TPDesign3 Touch Panel Program (Version 3. 16 or higher)

Instruction Manual for more information.

! On-board editor

This section describes the basics of using the on-board editor to create pages and buttons. For more

information, refer to the G3 Firmware Design and Reference instruction manual.

Buttons

Standard button types include rectangles and other geometric shapes you can create with the touch

panel editor. Buttons are set with attributes, meaning there is a response from the Central Controller

when you touch the button.

General buttons are part of the default touch panel program and cannot be changed. General buttons

create or revise pages and specify panel communication parameters. Button examples include

selection buttons, information buttons, adjustment buttons, and operation bars. The general button

categories are described in the table below.

General Button Categories

Selection buttons Selection buttons appear on touch panel pages and set communica-

tion parameters.

Information buttons Information buttons contain serial numbers and firmware version

information. The properties of these buttons cannot be changed.

These buttons have a dark fill and light text.

Adjustment buttons You can use the UP and DN buttons to set adjustment buttons. The

adjustment button example sets the baud rate for the connection

from the touch panel to the computer.

Keypad buttons The keypad button opens a keypad so you can enter a password or

value assignment. All keypad buttons are interactive except for the

entry display.

Decision buttons Decision buttons appear when an operation has two options and

requires verification before an action is performed.

EDIT button to enter Edit mode. This mode has options to add and configure touch panels and

buttons. When powering up the touch panel, the first page is the Main page (see FIG. 10). Note that

the Edit button is not available initially. If you have a pre-programmed panel, you may not see the

Main Page.

To activate edit mode:

1. Press

SETUP in the Main page to open the Setup page (FIG. 11).

2. Press

PROTECTED SETUP to open the keypad.

3. Enter 1988 (default password) in the keypad and press

ENTER to open Protected Setup page. If

you press

ENTER after typing an incorrect password, you are immediately returned to the

previous page.

General Button Categories (Cont.)

Status buttons Status buttons always have a dark fill with light letters and have no

functionality except to display information.

Operation bars Operation bars appear in the place of the Editor bar, after selecting a

button or page edit operation. The operation bar indicates which edit

function is currently active. When an edit operation is selected, it

remains active until you press EXIT.

Touch to Continue buttons "Touch to Continue" buttons appear when an operation requires user

acknowledgement.

Joystick buttons Joysticks are vertical and horizontal direction controllers for use with

pan and tilt camera controllers.

Bargraph buttons Bargraph buttons display a dynamic bargraph (vertical or horizontal).

An example is the battery level indicator button.
