TouchPad Instructions

Appendix C

The optional TouchPad is a compact and rugged device for interfacing
with ULTRA 200 Series drives. It provides the operator with a
convenient device for accessing status information, program
variables, and control functions, plus message display capabilities on
any ULTRA 200 Series drive.

An 8-character dot matrix display and a sealed-membrane type
keyboard are housed in a compact case. A locking tab and a single 9-
pin D shell serial connector on the backpanel connects the TouchPad
to any ULTRA 200 Series drive via four-wire RS-485
communications.

Four cursor keys and a Mode/Enter key provide access to the
TouchPad menus and enable the user to select and change parameters,
activate commands, and monitor drive variables. The TouchPad also
allows the user to display drive status and diagnostic information, and
to control functions, such as distances, speeds, and other
alphanumeric data.
