GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Graphite™ Series merges two of our most highly successful product
platforms into a single, extremely flexible solution. The nexus of the product is
the operator interface panel which offers the award winning technology of our
G3 HMI Series including protocol conversion, data logging and remote access.
Programming the unit is easy using drag and drop selection within our Crimson
3 software allowing complete set-up in minutes. Add to all that capability, plugin modules which provide I/O functions within the framework of the operator
interface panel. The I/O modules are similar to our Modular Controller Series
product providing easy interface of sensors, discreet outputs and communication
modules. The result is a complete industrial solution that connects, monitors,
and controls while providing real time displays.
The operator interface panels are available in 5 different panel sizes; 7", 9",
10", 12" and 15", with the 7", 9" and 12" displays in the wide screen format. The
displays are full color touch panels in VGA, SVGA or XGA formats and operate
as full touchscreens. The all-aluminum construction provides very robust
packaging that can withstand even the most demanding environments. If your
application calls for outdoor use, we have two models, 7"and 10" that are
designed for just that requirement.
The units are able to communicate with many types of hardware simultaneously
using high-speed RS-232/485 communication ports and Ethernet 10 Base T/100
Base-TX communications. Currently over 250 drivers are selectable in the
Crimson Software which allows easy data mapping to PLCs, PCs, and SCADA
Systems. In addition, the Graphite Series features USB host capability for fast
downloads of configuration files and access to trending and data logging
information.

SAFETY SUMMARY
All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in the
manual or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal safety and to
prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment connected to it. If
equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection
provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Do not use the controller to directly command motors, valves, or other
actuators not equipped with safeguards. To do so can be potentially harmful to
persons or equipment in the event of a fault to the controller.
CAUTION: Risk Of Danger.
Read complete instructions prior to
installation and operation of the unit.
WARNING - EXPLOSION HAZARD - DO NOT DISCONNECT
EQUIPMENT UNLESS POWER HAS BEEN SWITCHED OFF
OR AREA IS KNOWN TO BE NON-HAZARDOUS.
WARNING - EXPLOSION HAZARD - SUBSTITUTION OF
COMPONENTS MAY IMPAIR SUITABILITY FOR CLASS I,
DIVISION 2
CAUTION: Risk of electric shock.

INSTALLATIONS
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
This operator interface is primarily designed for
through-panel mounting. Four VESA mount tapped
screw-holes (M4 x 0.7, 5 mm deep) are present on the rear
of the panel to allow for stand or wall mounting. Care
should be taken to remove any loose material from the
mounting cut-out to prevent that material from falling into
the operator interface during installation. A gasket is
provided to enable sealing to NEMA 4X/IP66
specification. Install the mounting clips provided and
tighten to 6.0 pound-force inch (96 ounce-force inch)
(0.68 Nm) evenly for uniform gasket compression.
Provisions should be made to prohibit the product from
being exposed to UV radiation while in use. Care should
be taken not to rub or buff the touchscreen surface in a
way that might cause the accumulation of static charges.
of not more than Pollution Degree 2 per EN 60664-1. Must be wired
using Division 2 wiring methods as specified in article 501-4 (b),
502-4 (b), and 503-3 (b) of the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70 for
installation within the United States, or as specified in section 19-152
of Canadian Electrical Code for installation in Canada.
For hazardous location installation, this device must be
mounted in a suitable ATEX/IECEx certified end-enclosure
with a minimum ingress protection rating of at least IP66
as defined in EN/IEC 60529 and used in an environment
