Touchscreen introduction
Your machine has been equipped with a “Human Machine Interface” or HMI or -more popular
called-: A touch screen.
If you are familiar with touch screen operation, found nowadays on modern cell phones,
navigation systems, informational displays etc. you may want to skip this section. If however,
this is the first time you are using a touch screen, please keep in mind that in contradiction with
older fashioned operating panels utilizing mechanical buttons, lamps and displays, both the
displays and images on a touch screen can be interactive too, meaning they will react on a
touch by your finger. The interface on the touch screen is optimized for ergonomic operation. In
practice this means that all objects are positioned and sized such, that they can be touched
easily with your finger without the need for a stylus or precise positioning. A soft tipped stylus
can be used if preferred, but is normally not required for proper operation.
Touching objects on a touch screen can be compared with a mouse-click on a computer screen.
Based on the shown graphical user interface and your finger’s position on the screen, the
system can determine what action it should take when an object is touched.
To prevent accidental, unwanted actions some objects may require a prolonged
touch, meaning you should keep your fingers pressed longer on a certain object
(like a button or display) to invoke the required action.
Touchscreen maintenance
IMPORTANT - READ THIS FIRST
Never operate a machine until you have fully understood it’s safe working
conditions and operating principles.
Never operate the machine unless you are authorized to do so

REVO C/REVEX Service Panel Engineering Manual V1.0 Page 7
NORMAL EVERY DAY USAGE
Your touch screen utilizes a sensitive touch mechanism. The technique used provides reliable
operation, even when the screen is modestly covered with moist and dirt. It also allows the wear
of rubber gloves. And even under these conditions it should normally react already on a gentle
touch.
Some buttons may require a prolonged touch to prevent unwanted actions.
If the touch screen fails to respond, ask yourself first whether you have applied a valid
command. If in doubt, you could check the responsiveness of the touch screen by using other
commands.
Each valid command will invoke a short beep, confirming the reception of the touch. However,
whether or not the actual action is performed depends also on other conditions
Avoid applying excessive force on the touch screen and never use sharp or hard
objects (e.g. nails, tools, kitchenware or a pencil) to operate it !
In either case you might damage the screen and void your warranty.
Touchscreen cleaning
Your touch screen is provided with a durable front sheet which is water, oil and fat resistant. The
best way to clean the front sheet is with a soft, lukewarm and mildly moist cloth.
Special, disposable front cover protection sheets that will reinforce and protect your touch
screen, are available through your dealer.
Never use solvents (e.g. thinner, tri, turpentine) hot water, soda, abrasives or
other aggressive matter for cleaning.

1. CONNECT REVO C/REVEX MODULE AND GP-
4116 screen
This part describes how to connect the power supply and communication cable to the REVO
C/REVEX. Also consult the CD Automation manual that was supplied with the REVO C/REVEX
module.
1.1 Connect communication cable between REVO C/REVEX
and GP4116.
You can connect the RS485 modbus communication cable between the REVO C M5 port and
the GP4116 COM1 connector.
REVO C:
M5 point 9=B and M1 point A+ (white wire to GP4116) and M1 point B- (brown wire to GP4116)
REVEX: different connections depending on the size of the thyristor
For 30-40A and 60-90A: use M3
For the larger thyristors, use M1 point 11-12

REVO C/REVEX Service Panel Engineering Manual V1.0 Page 9
Here is the REVEX communication port for higher currents than above.
For good EMC/EMI immunity, use a Lapp RS-485 modbus communication cable that is 120ohm
impedance corrected. Use Lapp Unitronic bus LD 2x2x0.22 article number 2170204. You can
order per meter at Conrad electronic.

REVO C/REVEX Service Panel Engineering Manual V1.0 Page 10
Please also note the red and blue wires that are bridging signals on the GP-4116 connector.
For completeness here an extra informative picture from the Pro-face manual. You see here a
description of all signals that are present on the GP4116 COM1 connector.

REVO C/REVEX Service Panel Engineering Manual V1.0 Page 11
1.5 Connect power to GP-4116
The touchscreen must be supplied with 24VDC. This must be connected to the power supply
connector of the touchscreen.
Please regard the polarity of the +24VDC signals!!! This is also marked on the
touch screen. The incorrect connection of the power supply can result in
irrepairable damage that is outside the normal warranty.
The FG (functional ground) must also be connected to the central PE (protective
earth) connection of the unit. This can prevent damage to the touchscreen in case
of an electrostatic discharge.

2. CONFIGURING THE REVO C/REVEX
COMMUNICATION PORT SETTINGS
To configure the REVO C/REVEX communication port (i.e. set to correct Modbus
address 1, 2, 3 or 4 and 19200bps N81) you must make use of the thyristor configurator
tool that you can download from the CD automation website.
https://www.cdautomation.com/product/software/#gref
Here you can also download the drivers for the USB interface
For the service touchscreen, you need to adjust the Modbus slave port on each REVO
C/REVEX to a Modbus address 1, 2, 3 or 4 and 19200bps N81.
First connect the 24VDC power supply to the Revo C or REVEX unit (see manual) and
make sure you have connection with it via a micro-usb cable (maybe your mobile phone
has it).
First check in windows on which comport the interface to the Revo C/REVEX has been
mapped. Keep on using always the same USB port because windows mappes other
COMport number to each different USB port (don’t know why?).
Start the thyristor configuration tool and adjust the comport settings to what you found in
the device settings. Do this with setting-communication

REVO C/REVEX Service Panel Engineering Manual V1.0 Page 14
Select Revo C or REVEX and push “upload from unit

REVO C/REVEX Service Panel Engineering Manual V1.0 Page 15
Set address 1 and push read”. All parameters will now be read from the Revo C/REVEX
(takes a short while, just wait).
Push test, click on the blue actual level 0 and login with 1111 when you want to make
changes

REVO C/REVEX Service Panel Engineering Manual V1.0 Page 16
Now move the window a bit to the left and push ONLINE, to go online with the Revo
C/REVEX. Push communications
Set the COM1 comport speed to 19200bps and the desired Modbus address of the
module (either 1, 2, 3 or 4).

3. SETUP of GP4116 touchpanel
When the Revo C/REVEX thyristor modules are configured properly we can start the
GP4116 screen for the first time.
First we need to configure the touchpanel in the initial setup. This will only be necessary
when the screen starts for the first time. After that the settings are stored and the screen
will start automatically.
First select the language and push next

REVO C/REVEX Service Panel Engineering Manual V1.0 Page 18
Then select which modules are present in the system.
There can be a mix of both the REVEX and REVO C modules of different sizes, since
the communication protocol of the REVEX and the REVO C is the same.
This is an overview what has been selected in the setup. Push next and the settings will
be stored in the screen and the system is ready for use.
