MD-HMI420 cables
« on: September 05, 2006, 05:01:39 PM »
Can you tell me how long are the two cables that the HMI420 is shipped with?
10-way ribbon cable to expansion connector
14-way ribbon cable to LCD port

Many thanks

They are both 3 ft (approx 1 metre) long. You should not lengthen       the cable as the low voltage logic signal will be easily affected by noise and transmission line effect when the cable are extended for longer than designed spec.

Thanks for prompt reply!
1m is plenty - I promise not to extend it
