UniOP CP04F-04-1945 Rugged VFD Operator Interface
UniOP CP04F-04-1945 Rugged VFD Operator Interface
The UniOP CP04F-04-1945 is a high-reliability industrial operator panel designed by EXOR/Sitek, frequently utilized in specialized OEM machinery like ARPAC packaging systems.
Distinguished by its Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD), this model offers exceptional brightness and clarity,
making it the preferred choice for environments where standard LCDs might suffer from poor visibility or slow refresh rates in cold temperatures.

Product Advantages and Features
High-Contrast VFD: Unlike LCDs, the VFD technology emits its own light, providing an ultra-wide viewing angle and perfect legibility in dark or poorly lit factory floors.
Extreme Temperature Range: VFD displays do not “freeze” or ghost in cold environments, making this unit excellent for refrigerated packaging lines.
Dual-Driver Support: Capable of communicating with two different industrial protocols simultaneously (when configured), acting as a bridge between different machine sections.
Robust Numeric Entry: Features a full physical numeric keypad, allowing for rapid and precise value entry which is more reliable than “up/down” arrows or touch-targets.
Fieldbus Ready: Supports plug-in TCM/SCM modules for seamless integration into Profibus DP, DeviceNet, or Ethernet networks.
Unique Product Description
The UniOP CP04F-04-1945 is widely recognized as the “ARPAC Special Edition” panel. While standard CP04 models serve general industry, the -1945 suffix indicates a specific firmware and legend configuration tailored for high-speed packaging machinery.
It is an “industrial tank”—built to handle the electrical noise and vibration of a 24/7 production line.
Its unique self-illuminating display ensures that critical alarms are visible from across a warehouse, providing a safety and efficiency advantage that standard liquid crystal panels cannot match.

Application Cases
ARPAC Packaging Systems: Specifically designed for shrink-wrap and tray-loading machinery control.
Cold Storage Facilities: Monitoring automated sorting systems where temperatures frequently drop below $0^\circ\text{C}$.
Automotive Assembly: Interfacing with GE Fanuc IC693 controllers for line-side diagnostics.
Food & Beverage: Used in bottling plants where the wide-angle display allows operators to monitor status while moving around the machine.
Installation and Maintenance
Installation
Cutout Preparation: Ensure the panel cutout is exactly $117 \times 176$ mm.
Mounting: Use the standard UniOP mounting clips to apply even pressure across the gasket for an IP65 seal.
Cable Choice: For programming, the standard CA114 cable is used. For PLC connection, use shielded cables to avoid electromagnetic interference.
Maintenance
Battery Replacement: Uses a CR2430 3V Lithium battery for the Real-Time Clock and SRAM. Access it by removing the rear cover and main module.
Fuse: Protected by a 2A user-replaceable fuse located near the power terminal.
Cleaning: VFD displays are sensitive to moisture ingress if the front membrane is punctured. Periodically inspect the overlay for cracks.
