FEATURES OF THE GOT
3FEATURES OF THE GOT
FEATURES OF THE GOT
GOT is the abbreviation of "Graphic Operation Terminal".
Switches and lamps had been conventionally attached to an operation panel as hardware. However, by
using the screen design software, those can be created, and displayed and operated on the monitor screen
of the GOT, the touch-panel HMI.
Advantages of the GOT
(1) Downsizing the operation panel
Since switches and lamps are created using software, the number of components attached to the
operation panel as hardware can be reduced and the panel itself can be downsized.
(2) Cutting costs for wiring
Wiring between components inside the operation panel is replaced with screen design by software,
eliminating the need for the wiring, which requires a large amount of time and cost.
(3) Standardizing operation panels
Even though required specifications changes, you just need to change settings using software.
Therefore, operation panels can be standardized.
(4) Adding extra values as an HMI (Human Machine Interface)
The GOT can easily display graphics, text, and alarms in addition to switches and lamps.
Therefore, the extra value of your entire equipment can be improved.

The following shows the features of the GOT2000 series.
1High-speed processing
Compared with the GT16 model of the GOT1000 series, the monitoring performance has been improved
more than twice.
Even highly-loaded processing including logging, script, alarm, and device data transfer can be operated
easily.
2Increased memory capacity
The project data compression technology allows users to use project data of up to 128 MB without using an
SD card.
3Multi-touch gesture function
You can scroll and zoom in and out screens using the gesture function.
4Clear text and parts
You can create highly-attractive screens with fonts and parts that are clear even when the screen is zoomed
in or out.
5Enhanced lineup
The standard model (black) and the white model are available. You can select the colors for your needs.
Since the white model has no USB interface on the GOT front face, cleaning is easy.
You can select an appropriate model and use it at various situations.
