EXTER K30

Robust yet slim lightweight operator panel

The appealingly designed steel-gray, powder-coated aluminum frame and casing provides protection and affords a timeless look, with the 4-color foil print further enhancing the sense of depth in the operator panel. The front enclosure is IP66 classified, which means that it is waterproof even when exposed to high pressure washing. The 8 function keys can be used for controlling, with an explanatory text in the display or on a text strip and the 16 LEDs for status indication. The operator panel is configured with the user-friendly Information Designer software tool.

Ease of use

With 240 x 64 pixels, the monochrome display provides an efficient interface for presentation of textual data and simpler graphics. The 4-color front foil print enhances the look and feel of the operator panel and helps guide the operator’s hand and eye. The lines from function keys to the display help the eye make the connection from function key to the object on the screen. The integrated function key, text strip and LED are easy to use and understand as one unit.  

The Internet-style symbols are easy to recognize and understand, e.g. a house for home to the first screen.

The position of cursor keys and Enter key in the lower right corner make them easy and comfortable to use with both left and right hand (without obscuring the view of the display), and matches the symbols from a PC keyboard.

Digits are conveniently arranged to match the position on a PC numeric keyboard.
