i
Before You Start
Usage conditions
When installing the product, make sure it is used within the range of the general specifications. Do not
use in the following environments:
•Areas whwere the unit may come in contact with water (the unit is warranted by IP65 for the installed
panel, but this applies to initial values and operation cannot be guaranteed in areas where the unit is
constantly subjected to water or to extreme temperature or humidity.)
•Areas where the ambient temperature exceeds the range 0 to 50 °C.
•Areas where the ambient humidity exceeds 20 to 85% RH (at 25 °C non-condensing).
•If the control panel and other parts are installed in an environment where the air tends to be poorly
ventilated, forced cooling should be used to keep the ambient temperature of the from going over 50 °C.
This prevents the temperature of the GT main unit from rising.
•Locations where condensation may form because of sudden fluctuations in temperature.
•Locations where flammable or corrosive gases are present.
•Locations where there are high concentrations of dust or iron filings.
•Locations where substances such as organic solvents (thinner, benzene, etc.) or strong alkali
substances (ammonia, caustic soda, etc.) might adhere to the product.
•Locations where the product is subject to extreme vibration and/or impact.
•Avoid installing the product near high-voltage lines, high-voltage devices, power lines, power devices,
amateur radio sets and other transmitters, and devices that generate strong current surges.
•Avoid locations where the display unit is subject to direct sunlight.
Safety precautions
The switch functions of the programmable display unit should not be used to design systems which may
pose a threat to human life or which may cause severe injury or damage. Designs should include safety
mechanisms for use in the event that switch functions do not function correctly.
Power supply wiring
•For the power supply, use twisted wire (strand wire).
•There is sufficient noise resistance to offset power line noise, but we recommend reducing noise by
measures such as installing an insulated transformer.
•Separate wiring systems should be used for the power supply unit and the operating unit.
Static Electricity/Noise
•Keep the GT main unit, PLC connecting cable, and other wiring as far away as possible from
machines which are likely to produce noise (welding equipment, power lines, inverters, motors, etc.)
•For use in envir onments where the frequent occurrence of static electricity, radiation, or induced noise
can be expected, the use of shielded cable on all wiring and grounding of shield (1-point ground) is
recommended. When wiring the equipment, shielded wires should be electrically insulated to signal
lines and signal grounds.
•If excessive static electricity is applied to the panel surface, the LCD display unit may be damaged.

ii
Other precautions
•Do not connect any devices other than our Programmer II to the TOOL port.
•Always operate the touch panel with fingers as the touch panel may be damaged due to the excessive
load or shock (caused when being operated with any tools). Also, if the touch panel is pressed like
kneading, the electrode may be worn out exceptionally, and cause the malfunction. Operate with a
single touch of the panel.
•Do not disassemble, reassemble or remodel the GT main unit as we cannot assure the performance if
you have done such things.
Battery
Do not leave the battery in the unit when it is not used. There is a possibility of leak if it is left being
discharged.

iii
Usage Procedures
If you are using the GT series for the first time, please follow the procedure outlined below.
1. Confirm the items included with the product. Next page
Please confirm that all of the items have been included with the product you have purchased. Products
are carefully checked before being shipped, but if you do find anything missing, please contact your
dealer.
2. Install and wire the main unit. Chapter 2
Install the main unit, and connect the power supply, PLC connection cable and other wiring.
For information on connecting the product to the FP series PLC, and on entering communications
settings,
Reference: <Chapter 4 Connecting and Communicating with the PLC>
3. Set up the main unit. Chapter 3
When the product is shipped from the factory, it is set up with specifications that enable connection to
the FP series PLC. If you plan to use the product without changing these settings, no setup is required,
but if you plan to change the settings, you will need to follow the setup procedure. Particularly with
regard to the basic communication area to the PLC and other devices, please confirm the settings
carefully and change only those that are necessary.
Main cases in which setup is necessary
•When the devic e being connected is a general-purpose serial device (such as a computer or
microcomputer board).
•When the basic communication area for the device is different from that set when the product is
shipped.
4. Check communication with the external device (PLC, etc.). Chapter 4
Check the connections and communication with the external device. Connections and communication
with devices in the FP series PLC vary depending on the device.
5. Enter the operating environment settings Chapter 5
In addition to the setup described at step 4, various detailed settings can be entered from the GT main
unit operating environment.
6. Install the screen creation tool.
Install the Terminal GTWIN screen creation tool in the personal computer.
7. Create the screen contents.
Create the screen contents using the Terminal GTWIN screen creation tool, and send the screen to the
GT main unit. For information on creating screens and on operating GTWIN, please refer to the HELP
function that comes with GTWIN.
8. Test the operation.
Connect the GT main unit containing the screen data to an external device (PLC or general-purpose
serial device), and check the operation contents.

An Overview of GT Series Functions
3 colors can be displayed, to reflect the status (GT01 and GT11)
Various messages and graphics can be displayed on the liquid crystal display screen, as well as lamps,
internal PLC data and graphs. In addition, backlighting is available in three colors, green, orange, and
red, so that information can be color-coded. This makes it easy to grasp information at a glance.
High-resolution touch panel provided (GT01 and GT11)
A compact touch panel is provided with on-screen switches and a keyboard, letting you operate the unit
simply by touching the screen. As this is an analog touch panel, numerous switches can be used and
allows maximum flexibility in the switch layout and size.
Screens can be created easily, using special tools (GT01, GT11 and GT30)
Screen contents can be easily created using the dedicated Terminal GTWIN tool (runs on Windows
95/98/2000/NT/XP). Screens are put together simply by selecting parts from a library and positioning
them in place.
Screen data of the other models can be used with the model conversion function.
Screen data can be converted from the small-sized screen to the large-sized one. For the details, refer to
Terminal GTWIN Operational Guide Book.
