IDEC Corporation has expanded its operator interface (OI) family with its new HG1J Series touchscreen. This device uses the latest innovations to provide vivid visualizations and responsive multi-touch operation, all in an extremely compact form factor. The HG1J Series is the successor of the HG1G Series HMIs, and it provides an upgrade path for existing installations.<\/p>\n
The HMI\u2019s projected capacitive touch panel (PCAP) advanced technology\u2014like what is used for smartphones and tablets\u2014saves space and improves performance. Besides being water- and scratch-resistant, PCAP is very responsive, and it resists false signals when dirt or water droplets are present on the HMI face. Fewer touchscreen layers and better light transmission ratings mean less backlight power is needed, and the display provides an industry-leading 500 cd\/m\u00b2 brightness level featuring 16 million colors and a 480×272 display resolution. In addition to being multi-touch, users can interact with the touchscreen while using thin gloves. The front bezel carries no branding, of interest to many OEM suppliers.<\/p>\n
The glass-top design is wear-resistant even in harsh environments, and it delivers a long life with a 50,000-hour-rated backlight, making these units low maintenance. The battery-free design uses a hyper-capacitor to maintain clock time for 20 days, while magnetoresistive random-access memory (MRAM) provides non-volatile storage for programs, retentive registers, and log data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1494,"featured_media":127302,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":""},"categories":[104058],"tags":[],"class_list":{"2":"type-products"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
