HDMI Connection
From version Niagara 4.6 and operation system iSMA OS 4.9.88.983 (Platform Administration)
the controller iSMA-B-MAC36NL has support for the built-in HDMI port, which allows
connecting an external display by a standard HDMI cable (HDMI standard type A). The HDMI
connection allows viewing
the user’s station data directly on the display, without a need of
connecting PC with a Web browser. We recommend the use of HMI panels from the GC5 offer
- other panels may not work or operate incorrectly and may have problems with resolution and
touch. GC5 is not responsible for the proper operation of the iSMA-B-MAC36NL controller with
other HMI panels.
Note: The iSMA-B-MAC36NL has a built-in USB port, which supports a
display’s
touchpad.
