QTP 16Big-H basically is an operator interface provided with a large dimension display. Among the most important aims of QTP 16Big-H we can remind the representation of information that are visible even from a long distance, and the siplified input of user selections; moreover the availability of interesting additional features make it the right component to solve many applications in the civil, domestic and/or industrial fields, always by keeping an optimum price/performance ratio.

QTP 16Big-H is available with Alphanumeric displays by 20 characters for 4 lines in two different types: LCD type with LED backlite or Fluorescent.

A pratical and robust metallic container, in aluminium shape with the standard DIN 96x192 size allows a direct mounting in front panel modality. A back side openings allows to reach the connectors that can be used for the required wirings. The enclosed brackets supplied with QTP 16Big-H let the user mount and/or unmount the terminal by performing a simple rectangle digging up, on the support panel, that normally is the front side of the electric box.

The module's asynchronous serial line can be buffered with the most frequently used electric protocols and thanks to this feature the QTP 16Big-H can be connected to each systems available on the market. Furthermore low cost networks of QTPs can be realized where many different Operator Panel can be contemporaneously managed. Alternatively the terminal can be driven through a synchronous I2C BUS line that allows the connection on local networks.
The interconnection with other devices is ensured also by the optional CAN line, that increase the possible applications fields and gives better performance of the cemplete network.

CPU section features 16K FLASH with ISP interface for comfortable programming through the asynchronous serial line. This allows an easy development environment for the user application that doesn't require any additional system, with a considerable cost reductions. The user can write the application program with 8051 compatible code, by using one of the numerous high level development tools as the convenient BASIC compiler BASCOM 8051; the efficient C compiler µC/51 or the well known LadderWORK for the users that want contacts programming. With the scope to simplify much more the development phase, there are different ready to use management Firmwares, that are briefly described below.

Both firmwares, once received the command and the necessary input parameters, perform autonomously the specified operation and at the end they return the possible results established by execution. The firmwares, that are really similar, are different for the user modalities, as below described:

• Serial Firmware ( STANDARD ) the QTP 16BH functionality is completely autonomous and the communication occours through the asyncronous serial line (in RS 232, RS 422, RS 485, Current Loop) or the synchronous I2C BUS line, with an external system. The QTP 16BH works as a slave unit that receive commands from a Master unit, and it offers both operator interface and manager of his resources, even at a long distance from the same master. The user doesn't change the QTP program but only the Mater unit (PC, PLC, control card, etc.) program. Among the features of this firmware there is a local setup that allows manual setting of communication parameters (logic protocol, name, Baud rate, Stop Bit, etc.) and the management of QTP 16BH inside a serial network composed by many different units (up to 256). In addition to the firmware is provided a detailed description of the commands and their use tecniques plus some demo programs for PC and grifo® cards, under source and executable format.
  
• Library Firmware ( OPTIONAL ) in this condition the firmware is linked inside the application program for QTP 16BH, developed by the user, and it coincides with a list of Library functions directly called by each low and high level development tools. The library functions can be called by all the console instructions of the selected programming language, as Print, Printf, Kbhit, KeyHit, Input, Getch, Scanf, etc. This choice really simplify the QTP management, reduces the developing time and mantain compatibility with serial firmware. By using this firmware the user must write the application program and he must save, debug and test it directly on QTP 16BH. Certainly the application program can also use the hardware resources directly, without using the library, whenever it is necessary. In addition to the firmware is provided a detailed description of the commands and their integration tecniques plus some demo programs for the most diffused development tools, under source and executable format.

EL 12 The EL 12 module is a complete, low cost, power supply with extremely reduced dimension, that can be used in conjunction with grifo® cards as SDI 02, QTP 12, QTP 16Big, QTP 16, QTP 22, QTP 24, QTP G28, etc.

BASCOM-8051

W95/NT 8051-BASIC Compiler

BASCOM-8051© is a Windows BASIC COMPILER for the 8051 family It is designed to run on W95/NT and has all the features of BASCOM LT. In addition it has full support for arrays and the single floating point type.

Develop high quality software for any 8051 in ANSI C. µC/51 comes with an incredible optimizing compiler, you can even write software in ANSI C on 8051's with 1kB of code memory! µC/51 is absolutely complete: user friendly multi file Editor, Compiler, Assembler, Downloader, Source
Level Debugger. You will not need anything else.

The Pascal dialect used is an almost complete version of Wirth's Pascal, extended to, in a simple way, to take advantage of the special hardware facilities contained in the 8051 and 80251 family chips. Versions 5 and 6 furthermore contains objects and separately compiled units.

The picture below, represents the apperance of the program LadderWORK on your computer. LadderWORK has an integrated enviroment feature, allowing you to draw schematics, compile programs and upload code to PLC always working on the same window.
