Product Overview
When your industrial HMI system requires crisp analog video output to an external display, the Mitsubishi GT27-ROUT-Z delivers a reliable solution. This RGB output unit, part of the GOT2000 series, is specifically designed for the GT27 model and provides a single analog RGB channel. With support for multiple resolutions and a consistent 60 Hz vertical scanning frequency, it ensures clear and stable visuals for monitoring and control applications.
Technical Specifications Breakdown
The GT27-ROUT-Z operates with a current consumption of approximately 0.34 A at 5.0 V DC, indicating efficient power usage. Its D-Sub 15-pin female connector simplifies integration with standard display cables. The unit supports XGA (1024 x 768), SVGA (800 x 600), and VGA (640 x 480) resolutions, with corresponding dot clock frequencies of 65.000 MHz, 40.000 MHz, and 25.175 MHz. Horizontal scanning rates vary by resolution: 48.4 kHz for XGA, 37.9 kHz for SVGA, and 31.5 kHz for VGA, while the vertical rate remains at 60 Hz. This combination guarantees compatibility with a wide range of monitors.
Industry Applications
In manufacturing environments, operators often rely on large external displays to monitor production lines. The GT27-ROUT-Z connects a GT27 HMI to such screens, providing real-time data visualization. For example, in a packaging facility, the unit can drive a 1024 x 768 display showing machine status and alarms, ensuring quick operator response. Similarly, in process control rooms, it enables clear presentation of SCADA graphics, enhancing situational awareness.
Installation & Setup Guidance
Mount the GT27-ROUT-Z securely within the GOT2000 system using the provided hardware. Connect the D-Sub 15-pin female connector to your external display using a standard VGA cable. Ensure the display supports one of the listed resolutions and a 60 Hz vertical refresh rate. Power the unit via the GOT2000 backplane, and verify the 5.0 V DC supply meets the 0.34 A current requirement. No additional configuration is needed for resolution detection; the GT27-ROUT-Z automatically outputs the appropriate signal based on the HMI settings.
Maintenance & Reliability
To maintain consistent performance, periodically inspect the D-Sub connector for dust or debris and clean it with a dry, lint-free cloth if necessary. Verify that the cable connections remain secure. The unit's low power consumption reduces heat buildup, contributing to long-term reliability in continuous operation. Regular visual checks of the display output can help identify any signal degradation early.
Compatibility & Integration
The GT27-ROUT-Z is exclusively compatible with the Mitsubishi GOT2000 series and the GT27 model. It integrates seamlessly as an output module, requiring no additional drivers. The analog RGB output works with most standard VGA monitors and projectors, making it a versatile choice for expanding HMI visibility.
Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
Before ordering, confirm that your system uses a GT27 HMI within the GOT2000 series. Verify that your external display accepts analog RGB input via a D-Sub 15-pin connector. The GT27-ROUT-Z is a single-channel unit; if you need multiple displays, consider additional units. SpareTechPLC stocks this module and can assist with availability and lifecycle status.
