Dialogue module for mobile machines

March 2015 Sensors & Transducers

Powerful process and dialogue modules for operation and visualisation in mobile machines are providing users with a safer and more reliable performance. With its high-resolution and modern 303 mm graphic display, the PDM360 NG-12 dialogue module from ifm electronic has a powerful 32-bit controller and provides optimum readability and flexible operation.

Advanced optical bonding technology eliminates the clearance between the front glass and display and prevents interfering condensation. In addition, it improves readability of the display under different viewing angles. Protected by a scratch-resistant glass pane, the 300 mm TFT display with a resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels ensures good visual detection even with unfavourable sunlight conditions. The new development also provides backlit function keys and a navigation key with tactile feedback.

Thanks to the extremely flat and fully sealed die-cast zinc housing with the protection rating IP65 / IP67 the PDM360 NG-12 is especially suitable for use outdoors. Four CAN interfaces with CANopen and SAE J1939 protocol, an internal mass storage, USB interface and interfaces for analogue cameras ensure universal use.
