Product Dimensions：

The AutomationDirect EA9-T7CL-R is a specific model of C-more Micro-Graphic Panel operator interface. It is a compact Human-Machine Interface (HMI) designed for smaller control applications, offering visualization and control capabilities for industrial processes. The 'R' suffix typically indicates a model with additional communication capabilities or a specific revision, but in the context of the C-more Micro line, it refers to the standard 7-inch color display model.

Product Advantages

Cost-Effective Visualization: The C-more Micro line is known for providing robust HMI features at a lower price point compared to full-size HMIs, making it ideal for budget-conscious projects.
High-Quality Display: The $7 \text{-inch}$ TFT-LCD color display offers good visibility and a high number of colors, allowing for clear graphical representation of machine status and process data.
Easy Programming: The C-more Micro software is user-friendly and simplifies the creation of screens, data logging, alarm setup, and communication links to popular PLCs.
Broad PLC Compatibility: It supports native communication drivers for many major PLC brands, including AutomationDirect's PLCs, Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Omron, and others, facilitating easy integration.
Durability: The NEMA 4/4X (IP65) rating ensures the panel can withstand harsh industrial environments, including exposure to dust and light washdown conditions.

Important Considerations (Precautions)

Power Requirements: Ensure the supply voltage is within the specified $12-24 \text{ VDC}$ range and is stable to avoid operational issues or damage to the unit.
Installation Environment: While rated IP65, the unit must be properly installed and sealed in the panel cut-out to maintain its environmental protection rating. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or vibration outside of the specified operating limits.
Touchscreen Calibration: The resistive touchscreen may require occasional recalibration to maintain accuracy, particularly if the operating environment is subject to mechanical stress or temperature fluctuations.
Software Updates: Always use the latest version of the C-more Micro programming software to ensure compatibility with new operating systems and to access the latest features and bug fixes.
Disconnection Procedure: Disconnect power before performing any maintenance, connection, or disconnection of the communication cables to prevent potential electrical hazards or damage to the communication ports.

Product Applications

The EA9-T7CL-R HMI is typically used as a local operator interface for monitoring and controlling small to medium-sized machines and automation systems.

Typical applications include:

Small Machine Control: Providing a control interface for packaging machines, simple assembly robots, cutting machines, and processing equipment.
HVAC and Building Automation: Used as a local control panel for monitoring and adjusting air handling units, pumps, and facility equipment.
OEM Equipment: Integrated into original equipment manufacturer (OEM) machinery to provide a professional and functional user interface for operators.
Pumping Stations and Water Treatment: Used for local control and status display of pumps, valves, and level sensors.
Test and Measurement Systems: Providing real-time graphical feedback and control inputs for laboratory or production test stands.
