Technical data
4.1.1.1.2 SDL operation with USB cable (mode 2)
With this connection option, communication between the Automation Panel and B&R industrial PC takes place via
an SDL cable that is connected to interface "Panel In" and a USB type A/B cable that is connected to interface
"USB In".
Display data as well as information from the resistive touch screen keys, matrix keys, LEDs and service/diagnostic
data is transferred via the SDL cable. The touch screen data from the multi-touch screen is transferred via the
USB type A/B cable. The Automation Panel can be installed up to 5 m (USB specification) away from the B&R
industrial PC. USB 2.0 can be transferred over this distance via the USB type A/B cable. External adapter modules
are not required.
The brightness of the display can be set via the ADI Control Center, for example.
