About the G303M000
The G303M000 model is one of the many Operator Interface Terminals produced by Red Lion as part of their G3 Series HMIs. This model has a 3.2" graphical monochrome backlit LCD with a textured finish on the model. It is vital to note that while some other models in the G Series can be used in different environmental applications this model can only be used in an indoor application. Thirty-two embossed keys make up the keypad on this device. Some of the keys available are navigational keys, identifiable keys, and keys used for operating the on-screen menus. There are three LEDs on the front panel, one of which is used to identify the power of the HMI.
One key feature of the operation of the G303M000 HMI is that it comes with different hardware types, such as Ethernet ports and RS232/422/485 communication ports. These two port types are used for high-speed communication. There is also a USB port available on this model which can allow for quick downloads as well as the rapid configuration of files that will access data logging. The USB port on the G303M000 can download the appropriate configuration required for this model through a PC or can perform data transfers to a PC.
This unit is built around a high-performance core that has assimilated functionality; this feature lets the G303 unit perform a variety of tasks that were once associated with the Paradigm range of Operator Interface while not only adding new features but improving them as well.
