Easy to install Graphic LCD for High end level controls.
Helps improve customer experience in the use of level and ow for measuring and control technology in industries .
An intelligent ow technology system providing accurate, reliable and safe operation is the EA DOGM128L-6 series display by Magnetrol International.
“As the number and complexity of level measurement technologies grow, the ease of operation of our products depends on the user interface,” says Kevin Haynes, Senior Project Engineer at Magnetrol International. “Incorporation of a graphic display allows for improved customer experience in the set-up and use of Magnetrol level and low controls. Because first impressions are so important, it was an easy decision to transition to a graphic user interface.”
Some of its benefits are:
More information can be presented on a single screen
The use of larger characters improves viewing distance
In combination with four key switches, user navigation of the menu structure is simple and intuitive Instruction details are available at the unit
Diagnostic details are available to speed installation and troubleshooting
Signal waveforms can be presented and analysed
Provides a quality look and feel
Key challenges faced to make use of a graphic display a reality were:
Limited power requirements for the display
Perfect display size – small enough to t a housing but large enough for good readability Excellent optical performance
Sucient operating temperature range to meet industrial control applications
Fewer connector contacts from serial communication to the display
Customised terminal leads
“The DISPLAY VISIONS EA DOGM128L-6 series display ordered an ideal t for these needs. In our search, we found a simulator for windows. The simulator helped sell the concept early in our design eorts and aided in our product selection. Later, we made use of demo boards, obtained through distributors Mouser and Digi-Key, to investigate the capability of the display. The demo boards also allowed us to begin rmware design early in the project—a great benet. DISPLAY VISIONS provided great support for character set creation and display simulation. This helped us get a quick start in this design eort. As the project progressed, we investigated many custom features for this graphic display directly with DISPLAY VISIONS Field Application Engineers, such as extended temperature range operation and the use of longer terminal leads,” said Kevin Haynes.
He further adds, “The graphic display allowed us to improve the customer experience in the set-up and use of level and low controls and continues to set excellence in the level control.”
