Aromat Low Cost LCD Touch Panel.

willpower100 · Jun 19, 2004

I was looking for a low cost touch panel for an existing application, I need something with multiple screens. I came across the following units,

Does anyone have any experience with these units and can give some feedback.

I dont need much in the way of graphics capability, I want to display analog input data and setpoints. I also want a cheap unit, this looks like the one.
The plc uses MODBUS, Ascii or Rtu.

Any other options for low cost touchpanel???

Does anyone have any other suggestions for smaller low cost LCD touchpanels, I know of Maple Systems products as well, but are there more?

I am usualy requested to use Horner. Sounds like you may be able to get away with just text, if that is the case, check into Automation Directs EZText Models $182-$244.

The aromat screens are very good little screens. The GT10 is only mono though with different backlights, but you can have bitmaps. We had some problems with double integers not communicating to a sixnet plc via modbus properly, but the problem got sorted in an upgrade.
