An Automation Panel can be connected to the Automation PC via the onboard DVI-D/SDL interface and via an
optional graphics option. The connection options described below provide an overview of the operating modes
and possible limitations.
2.2.1.1 SDL operation
2.2.1.1.1 SDL operation mode 1
In SDL operation mode 1, all communication between the Automation Panel and B&R industrial PC takes place
via a single SDL cable.
In addition to the display data, information from the touch screen, matrix keys, LEDs and service/diagnostic data is
transferred. The Automation Panel can be installed up to 40 m away from the B&R industrial PC. USB 1.1 is also
transferred over this distance and fully integrated into SDL. External adapter modules are not required.
The brightness of the display can be set via the ADI Control Center, for example.
