Product Description
The Automation Direct EA7-T8C+12X19B022 is a C-More EA7 Series industrial Human-Machine Interface (HMI) touch panel featuring an 8.4-inch full-color TFT LCD display with 640x480 VGA resolution and over 64,000 colors. It operates on 24 VDC and supports serial (RS-232/422/485), Ethernet 10/100 Base-T, and dual USB 2.0 ports for flexible integration with PLCs and control systems. Compatible controller platforms include AutomationDirect DirectLOGIC, CLICK, Do-more/BRX, and Productivity Series, as well as Allen-Bradley, GE, Mitsubishi, Omron, and Modicon systems. The suffix "+12X19B022" appended to the catalog number is an Automation Direct internal manufacturing lot/date tracking code and does not denote a distinct variant — all technical specifications are identical to the standard EA7-T8C. This unit has been discontinued by the manufacturer; the current replacement is the EA9-T8CL.
