1.  INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION

1.1 

General description

PM74 

is aTFT 7” high precision four-wire resistive touch screen 

graphic panel.  It supports Graphic tools for preload and pre-
design display interface to simplify the host operation and de-
velopment time.  Suitable for industry control, instrumentation, 
medical electronics, power electric equipment applications.

2.  USAGE WARNINGS

2.1 

Allowed Usage

 

D

The instrument has been designed as a measurement 
and control device, built according to EN60730-1 for 
operation at altitudes below 2000 m above sea level.

Using the instrument for applications not expressly permitted 
by the above mentioned rule must adopt all the necessary 
protective measures.
The instrument 

must not be used in dangerous environ-

General Notes

•  The communication port supports RS232, RS485 and RS422.
•  The power ground must be connected to make the HMI 

run correctly.

•  The communication ground must be connected to make 

the HMI communicate correctly.

2.3 

Safety Precautions

Notice following safety precautions at any moment when 
installing, wiring, operating and checks.

2.3.1 

Installation

•  Please setup the HMI according to this manual otherwise 

it may cause device damage.

•  It is forbidden to uncover the product in the environment 

that has water vapor, corrosive gas or combustible gas, 
otherwise it may cause short circuit or fire.

2.3.2 

Wiring

•  Please connect the grounding terminal with class-3 

ground, otherwise it may cause short circuits or fire.

•  The panel uses 24 VDC power supply.  Any connection of 

non standard power supply will lead to machine damage.

2.3.3 

Operation

•  PM series HMI need PlStudio editor software to design pro-

ject picture.  HMI not designed may lead to run abnormally.

•  Do not change wiring while the power is ON, otherwise it 

may cause short circuit or device damage.

•  Please do not touch panel with sharp objects, otherwise it 

may lead to panel damages.

2.3.4 

Maintenance

•  It is forbidden to touch inside HMl, it may lead to short 

circuit or device damage.

•  When powered, it is fobidden to dismantle HMI paneI, 

otherwise it may lead to short circuit or device damage.

•  Do not touch connection terminals within 10 minutes after 

turning power OFF: residual voltages may lead to short 
circuit or device damage.

•  During operation, the ventilation holes must not be sealed, 

overheating could easily occur and cause serious failures.

2.3.5 

Communication

•  Please connect the communication wires according to 

this manual.

•  The length of the communication cables must meet the
