generic EEC standards, that cover applications in maritime environment.
Classification
The monitor is classified as “protected from the weather” according to IEC 60945 ed.4 (former
class b).

1Features
Congratulations on your purchase of a DuraPanel. This short form manual is designed to get
you started working with your new DuraPanel.
The DuraPanel series of Panel Computers are all designed for the demanding operating
conditions at sea.
The DuraPanel series are tested for full compliance to marine-standards IACS E10 and IEC
60945.
The DuraPanel comes with excellent brightness and contrast levels that, together with wide
viewing angles, ensure a good readability thus making it very eye-friendly. For the best picture
quality, always use a double shielded DVI or VGA cable with ferrites on external monitor.
2General considerations on Installation and
Operation
The DuraPanel is designed to work at conditions according to IEC 60945. However, keeping the
temperature and vibration level at a minimum will extend the life time of the product. ISIC
recommend operating this product at normal room temperature (20-25 °C), with the lowest
level of vibration and humidity.
Installation of the DuraPanel
In order to obtain the best possible operating conditions, please note the following precautions.
-Room for cooling.
When designing the cabinet/console for the DuraPanel, please ensure that air can
flow freely around the cabinet, in order to avoid any unnecessary rise in
temperature. If it is not possible to have an adequate natural airflow, use a fan to
force the airflow to be higher.
-Mounting positions
The DuraPanel is designed for both horizontal and vertical installation.
-Sunlight
Avoid direct sunlight to keep temperature low by that improve lifetime.

15 Dura Communication protocol
15.1 Message Format
The interface board supports a data rate of 19200 bits per second.
Data shall be transmitted with no parity, one start bit, and one stop bit.
The basic message format is shown below:
ATTN
ADDR
CMD
LEN
IHCHK
DATA
IDCHK
The minimum message length is 7 bytes.
15.1.1 Attention (ATTN)
This byte identifies the start of a message. The following three values are defined:
ATTN Description
0x07 Command
0x06 Acknowledge
0x15 Negative Acknowledge
A remote master initiates a command using the 0x07 attention code. The interface board will reply with an acknowledge
(ACK) code if the command was received successfully, or a negative acknowledge (NACK) if the command contained
errors.
Note that the interface board will acknowledge messages, even if it fails to execute the actions contained within.
NACKs are only issued when the message format is corrupted, e.g. invalid checksums.
15.1.2 Address (ADDR)
This byte is used to identify and address individual interface boards. In a multi-slave configuration, the master can
target each interface board individually, in which case the addressed interface board will reply with either an ACK or a
NACK.
The remote master can address all interface boards simultaneously using the broadcast address. In this case the interface
boards will not reply.
ADDR Description
0x00:0xFE Individual address space
0xFF Broadcast address
User Reference Manual – DuraPanel series
PN: 07353-000 Rev B Page 18

15.2 Command (CMD)
The following commands are defined for the interface board:
CMD Description
MAN Manufacturer ID
BZZ Buzzer Control Command
FAN Fan Control Command
ETC Elapsed Time Counter
TMP Temperature Sensor
LIS Light Sensor
15.2.1 Data Length (LEN)
This byte contains the length of the DATA field. The minimum value is 0 bytes. No messages have been defined with a
length of more than 35 bytes.
15.2.2 Inverse Header Checksum (IHCHK)
This is a simple 8 bit checksum. The checksum byte is initialized to 0. A bit-wise inversion of bytes 0 to 5 is performed.
The 8 bit sum (without carry) of inverted bytes 0 to 5 and byte 6 shall be 0xFF.
If a message fails the checksum, the interface board will reply with a NACK message with zero data. This requirement
does not apply to broadcasted messages.
15.2.3 Data Sent (DS)
The DS field is only transmitted as a mirror of the sent data.
15.2.4 Data Field (DATA)
The data field is only transmitted if LEN is greater than 0. The field carries additional data depending of the message
command.
15.2.5 Inverse Data Checksum (IDCHK)
The inverse data checksum is only transmitted if LEN is greater than zero. The checksum is initialized to 0. A bit-wise
inversion of DATA field(s) is performed. The 8 bit sum (without carry) of the inverted bytes and the IDCHK shall be
0xFF.
The interface board will reply with a NACK to all messages with invalid checksums. This requirement does not apply
to broadcasted messages.
15.2.6 No Operation (NOP)
This is empty data ‘0x00’ and only used as a filler between detection bytes for the reset command.

15.3 Message Command
15.3.1 Manufacturer ID (MAN)
This command shall be sent to the interface board to request Manufacturer ID Code. No data shall be sent with the
command
The interface board will reply to this command with an ACK attention code. The DATA field will be set to an ASCII
string with the value “ISIC”.
Example:
Ask for the Manufacturer ID:
ATTN
ADDR
CMD
LEN
IHCHK
0x07
0x00
0x4D
0x41
0x4E

15.3.2 Monitor Firmware Version (VER)
This command is sent to the monitor to request the Firmware Version of the embedded code. No data shall be sent with
the command.
The monitor will reply to this command with an ACK attention code. The DATA field will be set to an ASCII string
with the ISIC P/N and revision. Maximum length is 20 characters.
Example:
Ask for the Monitor Firmware Version:
ATTN
ADDR
CMD
LEN
IHCHK
0x07

15.3.3 Buzzer Control Command (BZZ)
This command will change the state of the buzzer on interface boards with a buzzer integrated.
The value placed in the DATA field selects the state of the buzzer as listed below:
DATA State
0x00 Turn the buzzer off (DEFAULT)
0xFF Turn the buzzer on
If the checksum is valid and the command completes successfully, the interface board will reply with an ACK message
with the current buzzer state in the DATA field.
If the checksum was invalid, the interface board will reply with an ACK message.
