TDU, Touch Display Unit
The TDU, Touch Display Unit, features a 4.3” 480×272 pixels, 24-bit color, IPS panel with capacitive touch. The IPS panel enables excellent viewability from any angle with high contrast, readable even in direct sunlight. The TDU communicates using CAN and supports CAN 2.0A/B and CAN FD and is made for 12V/24V applications. Stunning GUI designs can be created with the design freedom provided by the state of the art TouchGFX environment. The TDU can be panel mounted in a dash with no more than 20mm depth behind panel, or used together with a RAM-B mount for a free-standing installation. With a startup time less than 1 second and sleek design it is the perfect companion for mobile machinery

The VDM12, Valve Driver Module, is a high performance slave module in a CAN bus system, controlling proportional hydraulic valves, collecting sensor signals on mobile or stationary machinery. It is perfectly suited for harsh environments
The VDM safety hardware and embedded SW is designed according to ISO 13849-1, performance level D, Category 3. The VDM12 distinguishes itself by its high speed regulation and low regulator error when operating proportional control valves. This enables the usage in low latency closed loop applications for autonomous hydraulic functions. Multiple identical VDM12 units can be arranged on the same bus with only a resistor in the mating connector which configures the node-id of the VDM12 unit.

Safety Cabin Module, The SCM is responsible for sampling analog and digital data from various sensors and switches and presenting the data on the CAN-bus in a safe manner. The compact 95x50mm board to board module holds over 70 I/O pins
The SCM is responsible for sampling analog and digital data from various sensors and switches and presenting the data on a CAN bus in a safe manner. The integrator may use the SCM for collection of both safety and non-safety analog/ digital signals. Non-safety signals can be connected to any free input/output pin, whilst safety related signals must be connected in a redundant manner. Typical applications includes • Armrest assemblies • Joystick assemblies • Dash panels • Remote controls Safety Cabin Module • Can be driven from a single 9-32Vdc power supply • Designed for use in vehicles and mobile machinery • 52 analog (or digital) inputs 0-5V. 12bit (in addition also192 I/O´s on SPI expansion) • 20 PWM non safe outputs with a total of 2A • Internal buzzer with microphone supervision and status LEDs • Designed according to ISO 13849-1. Fulfilling the requirements for PL d, Cat 3 • -40 - 85˚C operating temperature • Designed for board-to-board connection using two HAR-flex 50p connectors for easier integration into customer products • Supports CAN 2.0A, 2.0B and FD up to 5Mbit/s

SWX 4-way switch
The SWX 4-way miniature tactile joystick switch is an innovative new approach. It provides great tactile feedback, guided direction feel, and long service life. It has four individual normally open buttons in one housing. It is the perfect companion for integration into joystick grips and switch panels in in-cab environments.
