Introduction
The VTCEs can be divided into two groups: those with a keyboard and
those without but equipped with a Touch Screen.
While in the startup phase the display remains inactive and there
is nothing to be seen.

Shielding of It is essential to use suitably shielded cables for communication signal con-
cables nections (total shielding is recommended). The shielding must be con-
nected to the zero potential.
Earthing of With many devices the "0V" is connected to the earth. The signal ground
shielding and must be earthed but it is best to separate the ground of the shields and cir-
electronic cuits from that of the power circuits. Note that the earth can only perform
circuits its function if the "Resistance of the earth circuit" is within the max. limits
prescribed.
Switching of The current peaks which occur when capacitive loads are switched on can
capacitive damage or destroy control devices. Furthermore, the high-frequency com-
loads ponent of the current peak can cause serious disturbance in electronic cir-
cuits as a result of inductive coupling between the connection cables.
Switching off When an inductive load is switched off, the magnetic energy stored tends to
inductive oppose this, discharging a voltage peak down the line which can damage or
loads destroy the control device. Furthermore, the high-frequency component of
the voltage peak can cause disturbance caused by capacitive coupling
between the connection cables.
The physical structure and characteristics of an inductive load make it
impossible to carry out switching without disturbance unless suitable mea-
sures are taken. The disturbance can be at least partially suppressed by fit-
ting a suitable disturbance-suppression module in parallel with the
inductive load. The disturbance-suppression module must not constitute an
additional load during the work phase. Electrical disturbance is propagated
both through the connection cables and electromagnetic transmission. If the
disturbance is propagated by cable or electromagnetic transmission, it is
much more difficult to suppress at the inputs to the units in the danger zone
than it is to suppress the disturbance at its source. If the disturbance is cre-

VTCE terminals are supplied with labels already set in the appropriate
spaces.
If it is necessary to customize keys, the logo or the model the labels can be
replaced with the neutral ones supplied in kit with the terminal (only for
F-keys) or by inserting labels of other materials provided they conform
with the points set out below.
Label The label must be of a material that is flexible and does not exceed 125µm
(micrometers).
Warnings Before starting to insert the customized label the following points MUST
BE observed:
Correct insertion:

The labels illustrated generate pressure that over time could cause the
keyboard to scollare.
• The oversize part of the label must go under the back cover or in the
appropriate fixing points (the choice is determined by the type of VTCE
being used).

All VTCEs communicate with other devices by means of serial and/or par-
allel communication ports. We list on the following page the individual
ports with the respective type of communication and the function of the
connection pins.
General notes Serial communication is particularly prone to disturbances. To limit the influ-
ence of these disturbances it is necessary to use good quality shielded cables.
The table immediately below lists the characteristics of the cable we recom-
mend for serial connection.
Always:
• Find the shortest route
• Lay disturbed cables separately

RAM 10-2
This chapter limits itself to introducing some simple but basic concepts to
help first-time users of VTCE terminals.
RAM The RAM memory is used by the system to run programs, calculations and
whatever else is needed for the system to operate properly; furthermore, it
is used for saving (whether manually or following the installation of an
application package) all files loaded by the user.
When the terminal is switched off all the information it contains is can-
celled, including the files and programs. If it is necessary to keep the files
after switching off, these must be moved to/put in a Flash Disk.
Flash Disk VTCE terminals have no hard disk but rather use a flash disk and handle
this like a solid state hard disk. The files that have been loaded or the appli-
cation packages that have to be kept permanently even after switching off
the terminal must be placed in the folder My Computer\FlashDisk in the
main root or in a sub-folder.
Storage Card This is an external device (the PCMCIA is card not supplied by ESA, its
supply is the responsibility of the user) that is inserted in the terminal and is
used to increase the capacity of its (permanent) memory. Once the card has
been inserted the system will automatically display a system folder called
My Computer\Storage Card. The files that have been loaded or the applica-
tion packages that have to be kept permanently even after switching off the
terminal can be placed in the folder in the main root or in a sub-folder.
Saving the As indicated earlier, the VTCE terminal uses non-permanent memory, thus,
Registry with the exception of the initial settings given by ESA, all the settings are
lost when the terminal is switched off.
Once the saving phase has finished click on to close the window.

Calibrating the The VT5xxCE terminal is supplied already calibrated and operational;
Touch Screen should it be thought necessary to repeat the calibration procedure, this can
be done using the appropriate software function or it is so far out that the
function cannot be activated, the calibration can be forced by using a hard-
ware jumper (see Page 4-9 or Page 5-9).
To activate the function click on Start > Settings > Control Panel, then
double-click on (Stylus).
Click on the

Then follow the instructions on screen. Once the calibration has been com-
pleted click on to accept the changes and close the window.

Direct PC / This type of connection makes it possible for the PC and VTCE to
VTCE connec- exchange files simply and rapidly using Windows Explorer on the CE ter-
tion using minal. The connection utilizes the Server and Client mechanism, so it is
Ethernet necessary for the PC (which becomes the Server) to share its folder or fold-
ers to be put at the disposal of the VTCE terminal (which becomes the Cli-
ent).
For more on the folder sharing procedure see the on-line manual
of the operative system installed.

Once the physical connection has been made proceed to set the parameters
as follows.
Once the logical connection has been established go to the VTCE terminal
and click on the Start > Settings > Control Panel and then double-click
on (Network).
If required you can test whether the system is operating properly by running
the command PING on the PC.
Go to the PC’s command prompt and digit ping followed by the IP address
assigned to the VTCE and then confirm by pressing the Enter key (e.g. ping
192.168.100.5).
If the connections and settings have been made correctly, response strings
will appear containing the IP address requested; contrariwise, if expired
request strings appear, this means that there are connection problems; in
this case look over the entire procedure including the connection cable.

All our VTCEs are built to withstand the effects of the more common
chemical substances encountered in industrial and non-industrial environ-
ments. Each element of the VTCE that could be exposed to these sub-
stances (epoxy coating, keyboard membrane, screen surface, touch screen
and gaskets), is tested to determine its degree of resistence.
The type of test is not the same for each component but changes according
to the testing authority. Below is an example of a test (carried out by Alca-
tel Bell).
A 2 cm ball of cotton wool was immersed in the test substance and then
placed on the keyboard. Two cotton wool balls with different substances
were placed separately on each keyboard; this was then put in a Petri dish
and kept at a temperature of 25°C for an hour; after this, the keyboard was
washed in water and dried.
The substances not appearing in the table were not tested, so there
is no information regarding their effect.
Chemical The table shown below lists all the substances used for the test with their
substances various results.

Installation 14-2
This chapter deals EXCLUSIVELY with the settings and procedures nec-
essary for using a Movicon project in Windows CE.

Movicon
Installation The installation procedure is divided in two parts: the first consists in the
installation of the basic version of Movicon, after which the update Movi-
con CE is installed, which allows you to create projects for VTCE terminals
(see also “Chapter 13 -> Software compatibility“).
Put the Cd-Rom into the appropriate drive; if the PC’s “automatic loading
notification” has been activated, the Movicon presentation will start auto-
matically, if not, click on Start > Run…
Once Movicon has been installed, proceed with the Movicon CE update.
Proceed as for the preceding point: if it does not start automatically click on
Start > Run… and digit e:\Setup.exe then confirm with OK.
Start the installation following the on-screen instructions and taking care to
set the following parameters as set out below:
If there is a serial cable connection between the PC and the VTCE and a
connection has been established using Microsoft Active Sync (see “Chapter
11 -> Using the system“), Movicon will automatically install the files
needed for handling the project. If this is not the case, the transfer to the
VTCE can be carried out manually later (see Page 14-3 -> “Transferring
Movicon files to a VTCE“).
Settings for There are no special procedures and/or settings for creating a project work-
projects for ing on a VTCE terminal. You need only to keep in mind CE’s limitations.
Windows CE For a more detailed description, see Movicon’s on-line Guide.
Transferring The next step is to transfer all the files necessary for Movicon to handle the
Movicon files project on the VTCE terminal.
to a VTCE
Before starting, check that there is a Serial connection between the PC and
the VTCE (see “Chapter 11 -> Using the system“).
The file transfer masks are displayed; follow the on-screen instructions.
Note:
• The destination path depends on the type of support that is to take the
project:

cepts“).
To activate the project, double-click on the file MovCE.exe (see Page 14-3
-> “Transferring Movicon files to a VTCE“ for the path; a mask for choos-
ing the project to be run is displayed.
Click on OK.
The first time you try to connect a mask appears for entering the “Site Key”
for which Progea must be asked. Should you not yet be in possession of this
code, the project can be run in DEMO mode (a message appears indicating
the type of mode).

ZenOn
Installation The installation procedure is divided in two parts: the first consists in the
installation of the basic version of ZenOn, after which the updated ZenOn
CE is installed, which allows you to create projects for VTCE terminals
(see also “Chapter 13 -> Software compatibility“).
Put the Cd-Rom into the appropriate drive; if the PC’s “automatic loading
notification” has been activated, the ZenOn presentation will start automat-
ically, if not, click on Start > Run…
Once the ZenOn installation has been completed, proceed with the
ZenOn CE update.
Proceed as for the preceding point; if it does not start automatically click on
Start > Run… and digit e:\zenOn_CE_Setup.exe then confirm with OK.
The project As already mentioned, the projects can be created work both with and with-
out a CIB board. The configuration mode changes slightly depending on the
type of project that you wish to create. Consequently there is an explicit
indication of those operations to be carried out only when there is a CIB
board. Where there is no such specification, the operations should consid-
ered as common to both types of project.
Settings for After creating a project click on File > Project configuration > project...

or over the Ethernet
network (b). Set as in
figure (a) or (b),

choice made.
Click on OK close b
the mask and accept
the settings.
Note:
• When using transfer by Ethernet network (b) the XXX must be replaced
with the TCP/IP address of the VTCE terminal connected and must be
followed by a semi-colon ( ; ). For further details regarding the connec-
tions see “Chapter 11 -> Using the system“.
• The destination path depends on the support you want your project to be
on:
Other paths are possible, but all data is lost when the VTCE
terminal is switched off (see “Chapter 10 -> Basic concepts“).
• It is sufficient to set the principal path and all the subfolders of the
project will adopt the same path as their destination.

Proceed now to the transfer of the project files. Click on . The “Issue
window” shows the files transported.
If the project requires the use of a CIB board, before activating the project
on the VTCE check that:
• the OPC Server library has been installed and registered (see CIB board
manual).
• the files generated by CIBWIN have been introduced (see CIB board
manual).
Once the above points have been checked (only in the case of the CIB
board) proceed with activating the project.
To activate the project without being connected with ZenOn you must dou-
ble-click on the file ZenOnRCE.exe situated in the project installation
folder.
