Product Resources

We are pleased with the QTERM-G55 in terms of ease-of-development using Qlarity Foundry®. Yet, the real benefit has been working with the people at QSI. Their technical support team has bent over backwards to provide prompt answers to our mechanical, electrical and software questions.

Operator Interface Hardware

  • 320×240 pixels, LCD transflective FSTN grayscale LCD display measuring 96 mm (3.8") diagonal. (Optional TFT color display available.)
  • Handheld, panel-mount enclosures, or available as a module for tighter integration into your panel.
  • Optional hard-wired, four-wire E-stop.
  • 24- or 40-key steel-dome membrane keypad; optional lighted keypad.
  • 4 or 5 programmable LEDs on keypad, plus shift and power LEDs.
  • Two serial ports (second optional) EIA-232, EIA-422 or EIA-485 on either.
  • Ethernet 10/100Base-T interface available as an option. Supports TCP/IP, Modbus™ and other protocols.
  • -20 to 60 °C operating temperature; consumes 210 mA @ 12 VDC.
  • Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) (IEEE 802.3af) option - Provide communications and power over a standard CAT5 Ethernet cable. A great way to reduce your installation costs and increase your flexibility. Requires a PoE-compatible hub/switch.
  • 2 Mbytes of flash memory for firmware, user applications and file space with 16 Mbytes RAM.
  • Programmable speaker, optional audio (.wav) decoder, optional real-time clock.
  • Tough ABS/polycarbonate case available in blue, gray or black with black over-molded rubber boot.
  • A custom key legend and company logo make the terminal a part of your product.
  • Industrially hardened to operate in many environmental conditions and meets NEMA-4 or -12 depending on configuration. CE certified.
  • The standard QTERM-G55 has a power regulator for use with an 8 to 32 VDC supply. Optional external 5 VDC supply.
  • Optional manufacturer's ID code to protect your development investment.

HMI / Software Firmware

  • Qlarity® - Object-based programming language makes application design easy for all user levels.
  • Design with pre-defined objects, edit current objects or design new objects for your application.
  • Qlarity Foundry® - Windows® programming environment for screen design and integration. Qlarity Foundry is available as a free download.

Qlarity Object-based Programming

Qlarity (pronounced "Clarity") is an object-based programming language designed by QSI Corporation for our intelligent graphic operator interface terminals. This BASIC-like, scripted, graphic terminal programming language uses objects to display information on the screen, accept user input and communicate with other devices. Other standard programming features such as conditional logic (IF-ELSE), looping (WHILE, FOR-NEXT) and a rich set of logical and arithmetic operators are also provided.

Qlarity Foundry

Qlarity Foundry

Qlarity Foundry offers an integrated design environment for the Qlarity Language. This PC-based software (Windows® 9x, 2000, ME, NT, XP) assists in developing screens and applications for Qlarity-based graphic operator interface and mobile data terminals. Qlarity Foundry allows you to easily use objects to create screens, simulate functionality on your PC, debug the program and download applications to your graphic terminal.
