TouchPad Instructions
The optional TouchPad is a compact and rugged device for interfacing with OMNIDRIVEs. It provides
the operator with a convenient device for accessing status information, program variables, and control
functions, plus message display capabilities on any OMNIDRIVE.
An 8-character dot matrix display and a sealed-membrane type keyboard are housed in a compact case.
A locking tab and a single 9-pin D shell serial connector on the backpanel connects the TouchPad to any
OMNIDRIVE via four-wire RS-485 communications.
Four cursor keys and a Mode/Enter key provide access to the TouchPad menus and enable the user to
select and change parameters, activate commands, and monitor drive variables. The TouchPad also allows
the user to display drive status and diagnostic information, and to control functions, such as distances,
speeds, and other alphanumeric data.
Installation and Operation

2. Plug the TouchPad into the serial port on the OMNIDRIVE by latching the tab into the drive and
