VFX Product Family
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Eaton VFX product family is a series of
advanced, CAN-based displays for use with
mobile and industrial equipment. These displays
are offered in both 4.3” and 7” sizes, represented
by the VFX40m and VFX70m, respectively.
These displays enable functional viewing of many
different facets of information using a standardized
IEC 61131-3 programming environment. It is
recommended that an individual have experience
with control engineering and programming using
the CODESYS 3.5 software package prior to use of
these displays.
These units are intended for operation in the most
adverse environments encountered and are designed
for direct mounting. The displays feature I/O with a
variable configuration architecture that is simple to
manage. The displays also employ several advanced
technologies designed to enhance ease of use
and functionality. They are intended as displays for
mobile and industrial applications, as well as being
the centerpiece to a complete control solution,
including other CAN-based devices.
