Chapter Five -
Operator Interface
Panels
Not all Operator Interface Panels are equal
in performance. Programming of each
manufacturer’s panel is unique. Industrial
controllers operate in a harsh, electrically
noisy environment. This can cause less
robust panels to work intermittently or
not at all. Watlow has not tested the
panels listed and this list is provided as
informational only. Watlow makes no
claims as to the performance or
compatibility with any Operator Interface
Panel.

Watlow Software Tools
920Comm Diagnostic
Software
Watlow has a program available free of
charge called “920COMM.EXE” that is
used with the Series 920 Controller. This
can be downloaded from our BBS at 507-
452-3958. This is a terminal program that
handles the protocol for you. The
program can be used to determine if your
cables are properly connected and that the
controller is working. This program
supports the ANSI x3.28 and XON/XOFF
protocols.
