- Sudden temperature changes causing condensation.

- Inflammable or corrosive gas.

- Excessive airborne dust, metal particles or saline matter.

- Benzine, paint thinner, alcohol or other organic solvents or strong alkaline solutions such as
ammonia or caustic soda.

- Direct vibration, shock or places always exposed to drop of water.
(This unit is warranted by IP65/IP67 (depending on models) for panel mounting, however, this applies
to initial values.)

- Influence from power transmission lines, high voltage equipment, power cables, power equipment,
radio transmitters, or any other equipment that would generate high switching surges. (100 mm or
more)

The usage conditions for Tough series (GT32-E) are as follows.

- Ambient temperatures: -20 to +60 C (When horizontally installed, -20 to +55 C)

- Ambient humidity: 10 to 90% RH (at 25 C, non-condensing)

- The upper limit of the humidity at each temperature is as below.
(Below 40 C; 90%RH, 50 C; 55%RH, 60 C; 35%RH)

- If the product is exposed to heavy rain, condensation might be caused by sudden temperature
changes.

- Altitude of 2000 m or less

- For use in pollution Degree 2 environment

- Do not use it in the following environments.

- Direct sunlight for a long time
(Exposing the product to direct sunlight increases the surface temperature of the display higher than
ambient temperature, and causes deterioration of LDC panel.)

- Inflammable or corrosive gas.

- Excessive airborne dust, metal particles or saline matter.

- Benzine, paint thinner, alcohol or other organic solvents or strong alkaline solutions such as ammonia

or caustic soda.

- Direct vibration, shock or places always exposed to drop of water.

(This unit is warranted by IP67 for panel mounting, however, this applies to initial values.)

- Influence from power transmission lines, high voltage equipment, power cables, power equipment,

radio transmitters, or any other equipment that would generate high switching surges. (100 mm or
more)

Static electricity

- Do not touch connector pins directly to prevent static electricity from causing damage.

- Always rid yourself of any static electricity before handling this product.

- If excessive estatic electricity is applied to the panel surface, the LCD panel unit may be damaged.

vii

Power supply

Phone: [phone] - Fax: [phone] - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: [e-mail]

- Twist the wires of the power supply.

- The unit has sufficient noise immunity against the noise generated on the power line. However, it is

recommended to take measures for reducing noise such as using an isolating transformer before
supplying the power. And it is recommended to take measures such as installing a ferrite core.

- Allocate an independent wiring for each power supplying line, PLC etc and operating device.

- If using a power supply withoug a protective circuit, power should be supplied through a protective

element such as fuse. Directly applying an abnormal voltage to the unit may cause the damage to the
internal circuit.

Touch switches

- Always operate the touch switch with fingers. As the touch switch may be damaged due to the

excessive load or shock (caused when being operated with any tools), the touch switch should be
operated within the specified control force. Also, if the touch swich is pressed like kneading, the
electrode may be worn out exceptionally, and cause the malfunction. Operate with a single touch of
the switch.

- The touch position may shift due to aging variation. If the touch position has shifted, please adjust it.

LCD panel

- Do not drop or have a strong impact on the programmable display unit as glass is used for the LCD

panel.

- The liquid in the LCD panel is a hazardous substance. If the LCD panel is broken, do not put the leaked

crystalline liquid into your mouth. Should it get into your mouth, immediately gargle, and consult a
doctor. If it adheres to your skin or clothes, wash it away with soap.

- There is a case that shadows appear in the place on the screen of the GT where no graphic or part is

arranged. (The shadows appear as the extension of the characters, graphics or parts actually being
displayed.) This is a phenomenon resulting from the basic characteristics of liquid crystal devices, and
called cross talk.

Battery

Do not leave the battery in the unit when it is not used. There is a possibility of leak if it is left being
discharged.

Features and Functions

1.1 Features and Functions of GT Series

GT series

Number of colors

GT21C

256 colors

GT05S/GT32T0/GT32T1/GT32T-E

4096 colors

Phone: [phone] - Fax: [phone] - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: [e-mail]

Can be installed in a small space.

As the GT series is a small and thin-shaped body, it can be installed in a small space. Also, as the
projecting part from a wall surface is 4 mm, it looks neat after installation.

The GT01, GT02, GT02L, GT11, GT12 and GT21 can be installed in vertical orientation.

Number of colors can be selected as usage.

Monochrome 8-gradation (GT12)/16-gradation (GT32M-E) display function is available.

The monochrome 8-gradation and 16-gradation displays can be selected as well as the existing
monochrome 2-gradation display, so that the screen can be displayed finely.

Easily shows a current state changing the backlight on the monochrome type.

For the monochrome type (3-color LED backlight type), changing in the backlight color makes it easy to
grasp a current state at a glance.
"Green, orange, red" type and "White, red, pink" type is available for the 3-color LED backlight type.

Analog touch panel provided

As an analog touch panel is provided, it allows maximum flexibility in the switch layout and size.

Screens can be created easily, using a special screen creation tool Terminal GTWIN.

Screen contents can be easily created using the dedicated Terminal GTWIN tool. Screens are put
together simply by selecting parts from libraries and positioning them in place.
Various parts for numerous applications are provided such as 256-color 3D parts.

Screen data of the other models can be used with the model conversion function.

Screen data can be converted from the low-resolution model to high-resolution model, e.g. from GT01 to
GT11, from GT21 to GT32.

The communication methods support RS232C/RS422 (RS485)

The communication methods to PLCs support RS232C/RS422(RS485). Also it can be connected to
PLCs manufactured by other companies.

Structure adapted to surrounding environments

IP65. It has a dust-proof, waterproof and drop-proof structure. (IP67 for GT02, GT12 and GT32-E)

High-intensity LED provided (LED backlight type)

As the high-intensity LED is provided, the screen is bright, and the backlight does not need to be
replaced.

Saving various data with a SD memory card (Model equipped with SD memory card slot）

Phone: [phone] - Fax: [phone] - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: [e-mail]

Various data can be saved and read out with a SD memory card.

Power can be supplied to the 5 V DC type with only one communication cable.

The power is supplied from the TOOL port of a PLC, therefore, the wiring man-hours can be significantly
reduced.

Applicable models:

Panasonic FP series

Mitsubishi Electric Corporation FX
series

Three methods are available to switch the screen.
Switching by the instruction from PLC

The screens can be switched by writing to the “basic communication area” from the PLC ladder program.

Switching with the touch-screen operation

The screens can be switched on the GT by using the “function switching parts” provided in the parts
library of the GTWIN that has a function to switch the screens.

Switching automatically

The GT man unit has an “Auto-paging” function in the configuration setting that automatically switches
the screen to a specified screen number when a certain period of time has elapsed. This function can be
used to switch screens automatically.

Through function is convenient for debugging

Phone: [phone] - Fax: [phone] - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: [e-mail]

A convenient “through” function makes it possible to transfer data from the GT and carry out PLC
debugging at the same time that communication is going on between the GT and the FP series PLC.
This significantly boosts efficiency in the workplace.

For TOOL port models

For USB port/Ethernet port models

New functions can be available by upgrading the GT.

The GT can be easily upgraded by donwloading the latest firmware from our website or using the GT
Ver_UP tool.

Security Function

Phone: [phone] - Fax: [phone] - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: [e-mail]

- Password protection function

A password (max. 8 characters) is specified for trasferring the screen data to GT from GTWIN. This
function prevents the outflow of screen data if anyone except the administrator tries to read out the
screen data.

- Operation security function (GT02, GT02L, GT05, GT12, GT32, GT32-E)

This function is used to limit the contents of displays and operations by setting the security level of users
for each part.
The level of operators are managed with the security password.

GT link function (GT02, GT02L, GT05, GT12, GT32, GT32-E)

This function is used to connect multiple GT units (up to 32 units) to a single PLC (Panasonic FP series).
RS485 communication is used.
Note) Station numbers should be set to the connected GT units. The both settings for GT and PLC are
necessary.

PLC Multiple Connection (GT02, GT02L, GT05, GT12, GT32, GT32-E)

This is a function that enables multiple Panasonic PLCs (FP series) (up to 31 units) to be connected with
one GT. Communication is performed via RS485.

Logging function (Model equipped with SD memory card slot)

Phone: [phone] - Fax: [phone] - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: [e-mail]

It is a function to collect and log arbitrary device values into a PLC at a constant period or when
conditions are met.
Logged data is saved in a SD memory card inserted in this unit in CSV format.
This function is useful for obtaining the history of data.

FP monitor function (GT02, GT02L, GT05, GT12, GT32, GT32-E)

This function is used to monitor or change the settings and data of FP-series PLC on the GT screen.
Without creating screens in advance or connecting to a PC, the operational check of equipment in the
actual environment, the start-up of equipment and daily maintenance work can be performed efficiently.

(This unit is warranted by IP65/IP67 (depending on models) for panel mounting, however, this applies
to initial values.)

- Influence from power transmission lines, high voltage equipment, power cables, power equipment,
radio transmitters, or any other equipment that would generate high switching surges. (100 mm or
more)

The usage conditions for Tough series (GT32-E) are as follows.

- Ambient temperatures: -20 to +60 °C (When horizontally installed, -20 to +55 °C)

- Ambient humidity: 10 to 90% RH (at 25 °C, non-condensing)

- The upper limit of the humidity at each temperature is as below.
(Below 40 °C; 90%RH, 50 °C; 55%RH, 60 °C; 35%RH)

- If the product is exposed to heavy rain, condensation might be caused by sudden temperature
changes.

- Altitude of 2000 m or less

- For use in pollution Degree 2 environment

- Do not use it in the following environments.

- Direct sunlight for a long time
(Exposing the product to direct sunlight increases the surface temperature of the display higher than
ambient temperature, and causes deterioration of LDC panel.)

- Inflammable or corrosive gas.

- Excessive airborne dust, metal particles or saline matter.

- Benzine, paint thinner, alcohol or other organic solvents or strong alkaline solutions such as ammonia

or caustic soda.

- Direct vibration, shock or places always exposed to drop of water.

(This unit is warranted by IP67 for panel mounting, however, this applies to initial values.)

- Influence from power transmission lines, high voltage equipment, power cables, power equipment,

radio transmitters, or any other equipment that would generate high switching surges. (100 mm or
more)

Static electricity

Phone: [phone] - Fax: [phone] - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: [e-mail]

- Do not touch connector pins directly to prevent static electricity from causing damage.

- Always rid yourself of any static electricity before handling this product.

- If excessive estatic electricity is applied to the panel surface, the LCD panel may be damaged.

Power supply

- Twist the wires of the power supply.

- The unit has sufficient noise immunity against the noise generated on the power line. However, it is

recommended to take measures for reducing noise such as using an isolating transformer before
supplying the power. And it is recommended to take measures such as installing a ferrite core.

- Allocate an independent wiring for each power supplying line, PLC etc and operating device.

- If using a power supply withoug a protective circuit, power should be supplied through a protective

element such as fuse. Directly applying an abnormal voltage to the unit may cause the damage to the
internal circuit.

Touch switches

- Always operate the touch switch with fingers. As the touch switch may be damaged due to the

excessive load or shock (caused when being operated with any tools), the touch switch should be
operated within the specified control force. Also, if the touch swich is pressed like kneading, the
electrode may be worn out exceptionally, and cause the malfunction. Operate with a single touch of
the switch.

- The touch position may shift due to aging variation. If the touch position has shifted, please adjust it.

LCD panel

- Do not drop or have a strong impact on the programmable display unit as glass is used for the LCD

panel.

- The liquid in the LCD panel is a hazardous substance. If the LCD panel is broken, do not put the leaked

crystalline liquid into your mouse. Should it get into your mouse, immediately gargle, and consult a
doctor. If it adheres to your skin or clothes, wash it away with soap.

- There is a case that shadows appear in the place on the screen of the GT where no graphic or part is

arranged. (The shadows appear as the extension of the characters, graphics or parts actually being
displayed.) This is a phenomenon resulting from the basic characteristics of liquid crystal devices, and
called cross talk.

- Exposing the product to direct sunlight increases the surface temperature of the display higher than

ambient temperature, and causes deterioration of LDC panel. Screen the product from the sun.

3.2.1 Wiring the Power supply

The power supply should be wired by securely connecting the terminal on the rear of the main
unit to the terminal.

Use twisted wiring for the pow er supply

In order to minimize influence from noise, the wiring for the power supply should be twisted.

Insulate the power supply insid e a protective circuit

• In order to protect the unit against abnormal voltage from the power supply line, the power supply
should be an insulated type, and should be enclosed within a protective circuit.

• If a power supply device without an internal protective circuit is being used, power should always be
supplied to the GT series through a fuse or a similar protective device.

Keep the power supply voltage within the operating voltage range

5 V DC 4.5 to 5.5 V DC

Keep the power supply wiring separate

• Wiring to the GT series, PLC, and other power equipment should have separate wiring systems.

3.2.2 Grounding

Phone: [phone] - Fax: [phone] - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: [e-mail]

Be sure to ground when the influence of noise is great

The unit is tolerant against noise in normal environments, but if the environment is particularly
susceptible to noise, please ground.

Use dedicated grounding

• For grounding purposes, use wires with a minimum of 2 mm
resistance of less than 100 Ω.

• Make the grounding point as close as possible to the GT and keep the distance of the grounding wire
short.

• Sharing the ground with another device may have an adverse effect. Therefore, be sure that grounding
is dedicated.

. The grounding connection should have a

Note:

Conversely, depending on your environment, grounding may cause a problem.
Example:

Since the power line of the GT unit is connected to a functional earth via electronic parts, the electronic
parts may become damaged if there is an abnormal potential between the power line and the physical
ground.

Do not ground the function earth when grounding a plus (+) terminal of the power. (excluding
GT02, GT02L, GT05, GT12, GT32 and G T32-E)

In some computers, the SG terminal of RS232C port and connector shielding are connected. Also the
tool port shielding is connected with the function earth terminal. Therefore, the GND terminal and the
function earth terminal are connected if the computer is connected. Especially when the GT is connected
to a computer with a plus (+) terminal grounded, therefore, an GT’s minus (-) terminal is connected with
the function earth terminal. As a result, short circuit occurs which may lead to the breakage of GT and its
neighboring parts.

(2) Insert the wire all the way into the terminal block, and tighten the screw in the clockwise direction to
secure it.

Precautions concerning wiring

The following precautions should be observed, to avoid broken or disconnected wires.

• When removing the sheath, be careful not to scratch the core wire.

• Wire the terminal without twisting the core wire.

• The core wire should be connected without soldering it. Vibration can sometimes cause soldered

connections to break loose.

• After connecting the wiring, avoid subjecting the cable to stress.

• Because of the construction of the terminal, tightening the wire in the counterclockwise direction will

cause a faulty connection. If this happens, disconnect the wire, check the terminal hole, and connect
the wire again.
