TERM10D

TERM10D is a programmable multi-purpose system that can be used as:

• autonomous control system designed to control machines and devices including display and control panels
• stand-alone display and control panel to be used with another SofCon control system.
• visualisation panel for third-party PLC systems, such as TECO, Allen Bradley, SAIA, FESTO.

TERM10D is based on the KITS4 (KITA9) processor unit that is extended by the TERM10 board and is designed to connect the display and the keyboard, and it also includes digital inputs and outputs.

For display, the terminal uses the 5,5" LCD graphic display using the 240 x 128 point resolution, illuminated with a vacuum tube (with 4 grades to specify the brightness). The backlight has been changed to LED since 2014. The contrast is temperature-compensated and you can specify it using 16 grades. The control system uses a membrane keyboard. Apart from alphanumeric and function keys it contains 6 LED diode signalling fields with user-defined labels. TERM10D is also equipped with audio control signalling.

In addition, TERM10D includes 8 galvanic-separated digital outputs (optrons) and 8 galvanic-separated digital inputs. You can use these inputs and outputs to connect the control system to the real world.

You can use TERM10D on its own, or you can extend it with any IO modules or P modules included in the SofCon kit to create a control system that includes the appropriate number of additional digital or analogue inputs or outputs, or a control system extended by additional types of communication channels. Your choice of the top cover depends on the total number of extension boards. Versions to accommodate maximum 1, 4, or 8 extension boards are manufactured. The actual maximum number of extension boards is determined by their particular types.
