Maple Systems, Inc. - Alphanumeric OITs | OIT Family | OIT5400B (ASCII & Motion Controller Interfaces)

OIT5400B

The OIT5400B OITs can be configured as simple ASCII terminals for communicating with many ASCII compatible controllers. They support both RS-232 and RS-422/485 communications, and for applications that require multiple OITs they support multi-drop networks of up to 255 units. The 8-line by 40-character displays on these industrial ASCII terminals can be configured to display text messages from the controller or the 500 user-defined messages that are stored in the OIT. Each key on the OIT can be programmed to simulate momentary or on/off switches by sending ASCII character strings of up to 40-characters to the host controller. In addition, these ASCII character strings or alternate user-defined messages can be displayed on the OIT.

Key Type	Operation
Momentary Function	Sends one ASCII string of up to 40-characters when the key is pressed and a second ASCII string of up to 40-characters when the key is released. Use a Momentary Function key to simulate a momentary switch.
Push On/Off Function	Sends one ASCII string of up to 40-characters when the key is pressed and a second ASCII string of up to 40-characters when the key is pressed again. Use a Push On/Off Function key to simulate a push on/off switch.
