Parker Hannifin’s Pro display 10 and UX Toolkit allows OEM to develop tailored and interactive HMI – Human machine interface – applications for mobile machines and vehicles. The applications can cover instrumentation, controls and machine adjustments for use on the Parker Pro display.
The combination of the toolkit and the display easily facilitates advanced features such as auto-steering, auto-levelling, weighing, navigation and camera systems on a single, centralised, user-friendly display. Based on an advanced scripting language (QML) with drag-and-drop functionality and a full WYSIWYG editor, the toolkit includes many ready-made components and a style guide with a professional default theme for quick and easy programming of applications. The included applications can be modified allowing OEMs to customise their displays to best suit the markets they serve and their end customers. End customers also have the ability to pre-define multiple view to focus on the most relevant informations.
Built into the toolkit is System Project – a special project type which can be imported as a part of each actual application project. Interfaces and communications can also be implemented saving time thanks to a number of building blocks, useful also for extracting data in an intelligent manner, allowing efficient in-built diagnostics and alarm features.
A choice of Prime or Advanced versions of the Parker Pro Display 10 are available. Both have a 10.1 inch IPS LCD (264mm x 181mm x 52mm) with a capacitive touchscreen. Offering ingress protection to IP65, the screen incorporates an advanced ARM Cortex A9 processor and 2GB of memory. If needed, more memory can be added via a micro SD card slot and/or USB port. The touchscreen display incorporates four CAN channels, 2 x USB, RS232, Ethernet and Bluetooth and Wi-Fi allowing it to interface easily and quickly with a wide variety of systems. In addition, infotainment capability is supported by Line IN/OUT, microphone IN, and FM-RDS radio tuner for audio, and 2 x analog composite video inputs.
