Human Interface Module

The SMC-FLEX controller can be programmed with the built-in
keypad and LCD display or with our optional Bulletin 20-HIM LCD
human interface modules. Parameters are organized in a three-level
menu structure and divided into programming groups.

Note: Node addressing of the DPI communication card can be

programmed via software or a hand-held DPI HIM. The on-
board HIM cannot be used to address the communication
card.

Keypad Description

The functions of each programming key are described below.

Note: If a human interface module is disconnected from the

SMC-Flex controller while the Logic Mask is set to 1, a
“Coms Loss” fault will occur.

Note: For ease of programming values, after using the Enter key to

edit, use the Sel key to jump to the digit that needs to be
modified, then use the arrow keys to scroll through the digits.

The Bulletin 20-HIM LCD interface modules may be used to program
and control the SMC-Flex controller. The human interface modules
have two sections: a display panel and a control panel. The display
panel duplicates the 3-line, 16-character backlit LCD display and
programming keypad found on front of the SMC-Flex controller.
Refer to Chapter 4 for a description of the programming keys; refer to
Appendix D for a listing of human interface module catalog numbers
that are compatible with the controller.

Note: Bulletin 20-HIM Rev3.002 or later must be utilized with the

SMC-Flex.

Note: Extension cables are available up to a maximum of 10 m in

total length.

Note: A maximum of two HIM modules can be installed.
