A font file such as a .TTF that contains details about how to render a font in different sizes is subject to licensing. However, when fonts are rendered in a particular size and attribute (bold, italic, etc.), such as in our .SIF files, it is no longer copyrightable and needs no license to be used.
You need to use the UTF-8 format of the character. For conversion between Unicode and UTF-8, see http://www.utf8-chartable.de/. In your case, the bullet character 0xB7 is c2 b7, so the text command would be: utf8 on t “\xc2\xb7” 100 100 Here’s a handy online conversion utility: http://www.ltg.ed.ac.uk/~richard/utf-8.cgi?input=b7&mode=hex There are probably formulas to work these out in your application as well. Here is more detail than you might want: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8
You would be better served using one of the following vendors to get an LCD controller with an analog VGA interface: Digital View: Look in the Products, LCD Controllers section. Spectrah Dynamics
We do not offer any displays with multi-touch. Our GUI items do not include any elements that can use multi-touch.
Maple Systems touch screens are highly feature-rich regarding speed and connectivity; hence, they’re more complicated to use (and more costly). If you don’t need 3D animations, the ability to play video or music, or Ethernet connectivity, you will find our SLCD solution more than adequate and much simpler to use. If you need some of those features, check out our G2 display modules. Since our SLCD interface to your system is a Command Line Interface implemented over a serial port, any UART microcontroller with enough speed and memory to handle your application will do just fine. If you want to discuss your application requirements and which of our products will best meet your needs, please contact our technical support team. Note: If you do need 3D animations, video, or Ethernet, be sure to look at our G2/G3 modules, which use an industry-standard IDE (Qt Creator), programming language (QML), and operating [...]
Our controller boards communicate with other devices via the “aout” command, which can send ASCII text out to any serial port on the display controller. SLCD boards do not have any GPIO for signal control (this is available on G2C1 and G2H2 modules). Please let Reach Technology Technical Support know if you have any other concepts of “control.”
We specialize in displays for medical and industrial applications and only support LCD form factors that are “industry standard,” which means they will be available for 5-7 years or longer. The smaller displays (under 4.3″) tend to be device-specific and therefore change every 18 months. Suppose you’re not already aware of the vagaries of the LCD market and especially of the availability of LCD products. In that case, you might want to read, “The LCD business is very different from others.”
Although the gaskets used in our enclosed units provide an effective waterproof seal and dustproof seal, they currently do not have a NEMA or IP rating. For more details, visit mounting options.
Our enclosed units have passed the EMC and EMI requirements of the CE certification. All our boards are RoHS-2 compliant using a lead-free solder assembly process. Metalwork is also RoHS-2 compliant (see RoHS-2 details). We are assembling the technical file needed for self CE certification. Please feel free to contact us regarding this or for a copy of the EMC/EMI test report.
We have tested the 5.7″ Standard Enclosed Unit. It successfully passed the EMC tests. For detailed information, please see the test report.
