![cat-moduli-Moduli-CANBUS-Matrix-12](https://www.mitrol.it/wp-content/uploads/cat-moduli-Moduli-CANBUS-Matrix-12.jpg)
Matrix12 is a push button panel with 12 programmable electromechanical buttons, with CAN interface, to be installed on a panel. Via a 7″ LCD it is possible to view, in addition to the status and meaning of the 12 buttons on the current page, also the status of the system. The CAN protocol used complies with the DS301 standard.
Matrix 12 is also available on request in the EtherCAT version and/or with a 10″ LCD display.
On the LCD display, which acts as a legend for the electromechanical buttons present, it is possible to implement up to four pages, thus managing 36 different buttons.
Through a simple USB connection it is possible to download the image that identifies its function for each button.
Matrix 12, in addition to standardizing the button panels on the machine, is extremely versatile in carrying out any “last minute” customizations, such as the addition of new electromechanical buttons to implement new functions.
