Introduction

The pGDx 4.3 inch graphic terminal is part of the family of touchscreen terminals designed 
to simplify user interface with the pCO sistema family controllers. The electronic technology 
used and the new 65K colour display means high quality images and advanced functions 
are available for a superior appearance. The touchscreen panel moreover makes interaction 
between the user and the unit much easier by simplifying navigation between the various 
screens. Diff erent types of installation are available, depending on the model: front or 
back panel, wall surface or fl ush-mount. In any case, the device can be mounted either 
horizontally or vertically.

Packaging contents

pGDx; power supply and RS485 connectors (only on models where featured); fastening

Not included: frame, PGTA00TRX0 power supply and wall mounting boxes

.

Installation warnings

For correct installation contact a qualifi ed installer.
Do not install the terminals in environments with the following characteristics:
•  relative humidity greater than the value specifi ed in the technical specifi cations;
•  strong vibrations or knocks;
•  exposure to aggressive and polluting atmospheres (e.g.: sulphur and ammonia fumes, 

salt spray, smoke) so as to avoid corrosion and/or oxidation;

•  strong magnetic and/or radio frequency interference (therefore avoid installing the units 

near transmitting antennae);

•  exposure to direct sunlight or the elements in general;
•  large and rapid fl uctuations in the room temperature;
•  environments where explosives or mixes of fl ammable gases are present.
The following requirements shall be met:
•  with built-in temperature/humidity sensor, it is recommended to:

– only use faceplates fi tted ventilation openings
– install the display away from air streams coming from heating/cooling systems
– if installed vertically, position the probe at the bottom of the display

•  only use shielded cables for Ethernet and RS485 communication networks;
•  power supply voltages other than those specifi ed may seriously damage the system;
•  use cable ends suitable for the corresponding terminals. Loosen each screw and insert the 

cable ends, then tighten the screws. When the operation is completed, slightly tug the cables 
to check they are suffi

  ciently tight;

•  in models with an external WiFi antenna, ensure at least basic insulation (500 Vac 

according to IEC 60730-1) between the RP-SMA connector and the protective earth;

•  do not open the product when powered;
•  operation at low temperatures may cause a noticeable decline in the response speed of the 

display. This should be considered normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

•  for one correct installation of IP65 models be safe of a 0,4 Nm screws tightening and a 

correct assembly of the gasket.

•  avoid any contact of the product with live parts.
•  be sure that cables are accurately fi xed in order to avoid contact with live parts in case of 

their accidentally disconnection.

Meaning of the colours on the notifi cation bar

At power-on, the notifi cation bar briefl y shows a blue signal to indicate the start of the 
boot phase. The subsequent signals are then managed by the application program 
developed using c.touch.

HMI Runtime and/or application update

1.  Copy the update package (.ZIP fi le) containing the runtime 

or application, or both, depending on the options selected 
when generating the “Update package” using c.touch, to a 
USB pendrive and then plug the pendrive into the pGDx and 
hold the pGDx terminal screen for a few seconds until the 
shortcut menu is displayed, disableable application side (see 
the fi gure on the side):

2. Select 

“Update…” 

to 

start the Runtime and/
or application update 
procedure. The update 
utility will start and the 
following window will 
be displayed:

3.  Then follow the 

guided procedure, 
selecting the fi le 
saved on the USB 
pen drive and 
clicking the next 
button to confi rm.

System settings

Touch and hold the pGDx terminal screen 
for a few seconds until the shortcut 
menu is displayed (see the fi gure below). 
Select “Show system settings”; the main 
confi guration program screen will be 
displayed (fi gure on the side):
