PWTR6
PWTR6 embodies an advanced CANbus keypad, featuring a rotary encoder and robust IP67 protection. The 6 quick-select buttons seamlessly complement the functionality of the pushable rotary encoder, which is also available in a joystick version (PWTR6-J). This combination provides precise and intuitive control of onboard displays, putting everything at your fingertips. Customization is tailored to your needs: you can personalize the rubber artwork and LED color of each button and backlighting. Powertrack is available with both CANopen and J1939 protocols.

Fully compliant with Device Profile 401d.
Keypads no longer have to be pre-programmed to a specific address. This enables customers that work in applications in the field without access to a GUI to use any replacement keypad on-hand. The keypad can be configured to automatically announce its address and accept a new address assignment as appropriate.
Each light spot consists of three different colored LEDs (RGB). In this way it is possible to independently adjust color and intensity gradient of each light spot by simply changing the intensity of individual LEDs.
The keypad can send messages to the BUS indicating a button press event or a button release event has occurred. The event that triggers the message can also be caused by the movement of the joystick or the rotation of the encoder.
The ergonomic design simplifies touch navigation of the quick-pick keys
The keypad sends a continuous broadcast of messages, indicating the status of each button, as well as the positions of the joystick and the encoder at that instance. The frequency of these messages can be adjusted in a wide range.
The keypad sends a continuous broadcast of messages indicating it is functioning correctly. The frequency of these messages can be adjusted in a wide range.
PWTR6 uses the same CAN protocols as the legacy Powertrack model. This means that it is possible to replace a Powertrack with a PWTR6 with minor changes to the control unit.
