About the G310R230
The G310R230 model was produced by Red Lion as part of the G3 Series HMIs. The unit has a 10.4" liquid crystal display (LCD) to display graphics and text. The LCD touchscreen on this model has a resolution of eight hundred by six hundred pixels with a screen brightness of 400 cd/m² (candelas per square meter). Two screen types are available for this model, the primary being TFT with the other being SVGA. Unfortunately, information is limited regarding how the SVGA display operator interface can work.
One key feature of the G310R230 model is the dual Ethernet communication ports. The two ports will either be a 100 Base-TX or 10 Base-T port with the associated jack, which is RJ45 being wired as a network interface card. Please note that when wiring the ports to either a switch or hub, a straight-through cable should be used, but when connecting the network interface card to another network interface card, the best cable type to use is a crossover cable.
Two independently isolated RS232 ports are available in this model, communication or PGM ports. It should be noted that only one of these ports supports programming, but both can be used to communicate with a PC. No matter what configuration has been chosen for the G310R230 model, the RS232 PGM port can perform master or slave protocols. This model can communicate with another G3 Series HMI or the Modular Controller produced by Red Lion if using a cable with RJ12 ends and a twist in the cabling.
