General Operation:
The TVM24128BTC can reside on your microprocessor's buss like a memory device, be interfaced via an unused port including any bi-directional printer port on a PC card, or communicated with over your RS232 serial link. When using the parallel interface, the two address lines are used to direct the module to accept an instruction, unlimited string data or to report back information that is stored in the on-board status register. The serial command language offers an alternative method of performing the same instructions when using the serial link. The instruction set includes commands to activate touch screen switch areas while drawing buttons on the LCD. A pre-loaded label is also automatically centered within the button area. During button definition a key code is assigned which can be read after the keypress status flag indicates that a valid button closure has occurred. Other commands can control font selection, draw boxes and vectors, turn the backlight on and off, and control both the button characteristics and built in audio beeper. The TVM24128BTC uses a 16 bit 20 MHz on-board uP to add a new level of intelligence to the LCD which allows equipment using the low performance CPU cards to obtain a sophisticated and flexible user interface. The module also makes available a non-dedicated port of 8 inputs and 4 outputs to control additional equipment functions.
An unlimited number of screen fonts can be displayed simultaneously being selected from 2 built in fonts or from 3 down loaded soft fonts. Fonts can be down loaded 'on the fly' as required. A font compiler is included in the designer kit software.
The TVM24128K designer kit includes a module, PC interface card, manuals, software libraries and examples including C and basic source code. This kit can get the module up and running in a matter of minutes and will allow you to test routines before writing and compiling your code.
