Series 3000 Touchpanels
Description
Functional Description
The Series 3000 Touchpanels are 9.6 inch (23.9 cm) passive matrix touchscreen
control panels for the CRESNET II remote control system (herein referred to as the
CRESNET II system). There are 12 Series 3000 configurations available. Six of the
12 touchpanels offer 256 color display and are commonly known as ColorTouch.
The remaining six touchpanels offer 256 shades of grayscale display and are
commonly known as BriteTouch. ColorTouch and BriteTouch are available in
lectern-mount and adjustable tiltcase configurations. Configuration selection is
based on application requirements. Refer to “Configuration Differences” on page 5
for a more detailed description of each.
The purpose of a ColorTouch and BriteTouch Series 3000 unit is to replace hard-
wired panels in either a CRESNET II or an RS-232 based control system. The
touchpanel is capable of replacing large, complicated panels with a series of simpler
screens, each specific to the control problem at hand. Thus, very large numbers of
functions can be made available to the user without the confusion associated with
hardware panels of that complexity. Series 3000's icons, graphics, and text can
dramatically increase any user's comprehension of the control environment.
Devices, functions, and control zones are quickly organized and more easily
accessed. The Series 3000 Touchpanels offer:
•
256 color display (for ColorTouch only)
•
256 shades of grayscale display (for BriteTouch only)
•
pop-up sub panels to reduce memory requirements, providing optimal
speed and performance
•
multiple button, slider control, and icon configurations
•
up to 999 functions and 96 screens
•
imported photographs, drawings, and icons
•
