CEC021 - 15 Message Programmable LCD Display (20x4)

15 message, programmable LCD display, with 4 lines of 20 characters. One default message and up to 14 other messages are programmable using an onboard keyboard or a second pre-programmed board.

Any of the 14 remaining pre-programmed messages can be displayed by activating the respective input.

Functions include:

• Default message - displayed when none of the 14 user-recordable messages are selected
• Hierarchical or Rotary display modes - when several messages are selected at the same time Hierarchical Mode displays the most important message only (number 1 first moving down to 14 as the message inputs are released); Rotary Mode displays all selected messages sequentially
• external message activation using any 'make' contact e.g. switches, relays, open collector outputs or simply push buttons
• single or dual line messages
• Character set includes lower and uppercase letters, 0-9, !"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[]_{}¥|^`’
• serial connector - this allows you to dump the pre-programmed messages onto a second module.

A data transfer cable is also available, which allows for messages to be sent from one module to another, therefore avoiding manual programming.

The module includes protection against inverse polarity, indicator LED and screw terminal connections.
