Step 3 – Become Familiar with Available Communication Ports
The
C-more
6” Color Micro-Graphic panel includes a built-in USB Type B port used to
communicate with a PC during project development. There is a 15-pin RS-232/RS-422/RS-
485 port for communications to a PLC.
NOTE:
When the panel is powered through Port1 from a connected PC, the screen brightness is diminished
because the panel is running in
Low-Power Mode
. Connect an external 12-24 VDC power source when the
panel is installed in its application for full brightness.
NOTE:
See Chapter 2: Specifications and Chapter 6: PLC Communications for additional details on the
available communication ports, protocols and cables.
