Introduction  
GN Series Hardware Manual  
1.2 Overview  
The GN series touch panels are human-machine interfaces (HMIs) designed for demanding  
industrial applications such as installation in an instrument panel or switching cabinet.  
NOTE  
All versions are suitable for installation in an instrument panel or switching  
cabinet. Use the mounting clamps included with the product.  
The GN series includes:  
GN07, 7" display  
GN10, 10.4" display  
GN12, 12.1" display  
GN15, 15" display  
In front of the display there is a touch screen that also protects the display surface from dirt  
and scratches. The system is suitable for operation in harsh industrial environments.  
The GN is equipped with interfaces such as 1x serial COM1 (RS232), 2x LAN (10/100/1000  
Mbps), 2x USB (2.0), 1x VGA. Additional interfaces can be installed as follows:  
The GN10/GN12/GN15 can be expanded with up to two different modules for  
RS422/485 industrial fieldbus interfaces and/or an additional serial port COM2 as  
RS232.  
The GN07 can be expanded with one module for the RS422/485 or an industrial  
fieldbus interface or an additional serial port COM2 as RS232.  
The GN is designed to be connected to a +24V DC power supply using the DC power plug  
(included).  
NOTE  
The GN series touch panels are designed to fulfill the IP65 degree of protection  
for the front side. However, the USB connector on the front (if present) must be  
covered by the elastic captive rubber coat.  
The GN is a fanless system. The cooling of the unit is performed by ventilation holes in the

3.2.3 Display with Touch Screen  
GN series touch panels include a TFT display (see page 44) with corresponding resistive  
touch screen (glass-glass technology). A stylus is supplied for touch screen operation.  
The surface of the display is also mechanically protected by the touch screen. The touch  
screen (USB connected) registers contacts of a finger or a pen and allows you to move the  
mouse pointer. This works only if the necessary software is installed. You receive the touch  
screen driver for your operating system installed on your system.  
NOTE  
Do not use a hard or a pointed object (like screw drivers) to operate the  
touch screen because this can damage the touch screen surface.  
The front panel (GN10/GN12/GN15) and the touch screen are covered by a  
plastic overlay. Be careful when cleaning the plastic overlay (see page 22).  
3.2.4 Calibrating the Touch Screen  
Calibration serves two purposes:  
Sets the active area of the touch screen.  
Aligns the active area of the touch screen to the screen's image.  
NOTE  
Before you calibrate the touch screen, let the system warm up for 30 minutes.  
Calibration aligns the active touch-sensitive area of the touch screen with the image on the  
display. Calibration also determines the edges of the screen's image and locates the center of  
the touch screen. If the touch screen is not calibrated properly, the active area of the touch

Product Description  
GN Series Hardware Manual  
screen may not be aligned with the screen's image or may be unnecessarily small in size. If  
you need to access the calibration routine, use a USB mouse.  
The touch screen of your GN system is factory calibrated. Run the calibration routine when an  
alignment problem exists between the mouse pointer and the stylus contact location on the  
screen. You can adjust the touch screen calibration with the software "Hampshire TSHARC  
Control Panel".  
Depending on the operation system installed, the calibration procedure is slightly different.

3.2.5 Touch Screen Care and Cleaning  
For cleaning we recommend a mild detergent and water. Do not use of strong solvents, which  
could attack paint or plastic. Protect the plastic overlay and the touch screen surface from  
direct heat sources such as cigarettes. The display front is sealed against dust, liquids, etc.  
The front surface of the touch screen is a flexible plastic foil. Avoid touching it with sharp  
objects such as a knife, a pen or a pencil tip. Sharp objects can permanently damage the  
functionality of the touch screen. Units without a touch screen have a polycarbonate shield,  
which may be scratched if an object is sufficiently sharp.

Product Description  
GN Series Hardware Manual  
RS485 mode communication can be either in full-duplex or half-duplex mode. While running in  
RS485 half duplex mode, the system stays in receiver mode. Switching to transmission mode  
occurs automatically and is triggered by the RTS line or the last sent message using the TxD  
line, which the user defines.  
RTS: the RTS signal must be activated by the application software before starting the  
data packet transmission The RTS signal has to be disabled again afterdata  
transmission has been terminated.  
TxD: the receiver device has to wait a certain time (timeout) before starting to send  
any data.
