   • IP65 front panel resists oil, dust, and humid environments, suitable for direct workshop installation.
   • Wide operating temperature range, adapting to industrial control cabinet environments.

Typical Application Case

Installation and Maintenance

Installation Key Points

• Drill holes in the control cabinet panel (refer to the product manual for specific dimensions) and ensure sufficient heat dissipation space (≥50mm) around the panel.
• Use shielded cables (e.g., Ethernet CAT5e or higher) to connect communication ports to avoid electromagnetic interference.
• Install a fuse (1.5A recommended) for the 24V DC power supply.

Maintenance Recommendations

• Regularly clean the touchscreen (use isopropyl alcohol or dedicated cleaning agents; avoid corrosive liquids).
• Back up HMI programs to USB devices or network storage to prevent data loss.
• Check the firmware version and upgrade it via the GE official website or service channels (if needed).
