A 7" 16:9 TFT LCD with 1024 × 600 resolution, 24-bit colour and 450 cd/m² brightness. It has a 4-wire resistive touch screen and an LED backlight rated for 50,000 hours.

How is it mounted, and how much space does it need?

It needs a 192 × 138 mm panel cutout. The unit measures 204 × 145 × 33.8 mm and weighs about 560 g.

The front is IP65 and the back IP20. It is not suitable for strong UV light such as direct sunlight.

What power and conditions does it need?

24 VDC (working range 9–28 VDC), using less than 10 W. It operates from 0 to 50 °C at 10–90% relative humidity without condensation.

Can I see the panel remotely?

Yes. It has a built-in VNC server on port 5900, so any VNC client can connect.

How do I update the panel's software?

Download the ECpanel project file for your controller from this page and put it in the root of a USB stick.

Insert the stick in the ECpanel, go to Identifiers and click Update SW.
