General

This document describes all software commands and functions of EA uniTFTs-Series.


The displays do provide sophisticated graphical functions and intuitive menu control with its built-in command set. Thanks to the integrated command set and the Windows design software "uniTFTDesigner", not only electronics specialists, but also experts in the field of design and user guidance are able to create the entire HMI.


The display modules are immediately ready for operation as a stand alone or controlled via the built-in serial interfaces RS232, SPI, I²C or USB. Or as a combination of both. All graphic functions are built-in.


Any Object on display like text, picture, button etc. will be defined via a wide set of commands. It will be displayed immediately and can even be changed in size, position and transparency afterwards Thus a nice HMI design can be created easily with some smooth objects, transparency and moving objects.



Currently are 9 different sizes available:

- EA uniTFT series with 5" (800x480 dots), 7" (1024x600 dots) and 10.1" (1280x800 dots).

- EA uniTFTm series with 7" (1024x600 dots)

- EA uniTFTs series with 1.5" (240x240 dots), 2" (320x240 dots), 2.8" (320x240 dots), 3.5" (480x320 dots)  and 4.3" (480x272 dots).

All of them are in most modern IPS technology for clear colors and widest viewing angle. Brightness is brilliant with about 1000cd/m².

The commands of EA uniTFT and uniTFTs series are largely compatible. The design software "uniTFTDesigner" offers migration tools.

How to create some display content

The display content will be created by built-in commands. These commands can be transmitted at runtime via one of the serial interfaces.

A collection of some commands can be stored as a Macro on internal FLASH also. Internal macros and commands via serial interface can be mixed at any time.


With our WYSIWYG tool "uniTFTDesigner" it is fast and easy to create those macros and download to the displays FLASH. The tool is available f.o.c as a download from our website.


To get an easy introduction to the use of the commands we have a collection of short explanatory videos with the uniTFT Academy online.
