The GT16 series from Mitsubishi Electric belongs to the top segment of operator panels and combines high-resolution TFT displays, multi-protocol communication interfaces and flexible power supply (AC or DC 24V). GT16 is designed for applications requiring clear visualization of technological processes on large screens with full-color rendering up to 65,536 colors.

GT16 series technical specifications

All GT16 models feature touch-screen TFT matrices supporting 65,536 colors (except the basic GT1662 with a 16-color display). Each panel has 3 communication ports (RS-232, RS-422/485, Ethernet), Modbus and TCP/IP protocol support, and USB ports (host and client) for programming and data transfer.

Screen diagonals: 5.7", 8.4", 10.4", 12.1", 15"
Resolution: VGA (640x480), SVGA (800x600), XGA (1024x768)
Interfaces: RS-232, RS-422, RS-485, Ethernet
Protocols: Modbus RTU/TCP, TCP/IP
Power supply: AC 100-240V (suffix A) or DC 24V (suffix D)

GT16 application areas

Thanks to large screens and high resolution, GT16 panels are used in complex automation systems where operators need detailed visualization:

Food industry: packaging line control, dosing, recipe management on 10.4"-15" screens
Water treatment and purification plants: pump station monitoring, mimic diagram display on 15-inch GT1695M panels
Metalworking and machine building: machining parameter visualization with Ethernet connection to PLCs
Energy sector: substation dispatching, switchgear monitoring with up to 65,536 color display

Other Mitsubishi Electric HMI series

In addition to the GT16, Mitsubishi Electric produces several HMI panel series for different tasks and budgets:

GT15 — previous series with similar screen sizes but less memory
GT10 — compact entry-level panels for simple visualization tasks
GT12 — budget series for basic monitoring

Warranty and support

We provide technical support for model selection, assist with integration into existing automation systems and offer consultations on communication protocols and connectivity. Delivery across Ukraine.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you select an HMI operator terminal for industrial automation?

Key selection criteria include display diagonal (from compact 4.3" to supervisory 15"), touchscreen technology (resistive for gloved operation vs capacitive for multi-touch clarity), communication interfaces (RS-485 Modbus, dual Ethernet, CAN) and front bezel ingress protection (IP65).

Which PLC brands communicate directly with these HMI terminals?

Terminals from Kinco, Delta, Schneider Electric, Veichi, and Weintek feature comprehensive protocol libraries covering Modbus RTU/TCP, Siemens S7-1200/1500/300, Mitsubishi FX/Q, Omron Host Link, and Delta DVP/AS architectures.

Is development software provided free of charge?

Yes. Programming environments for Kinco (DTools), Delta Electronics (DOPSoft), Veichi (Veichi HMI Editor), and Weintek (EasyBuilder Pro) are fully free to download. Schneider Electric terminals utilize Vijeo Designer or EcoStruxure Operator Terminal Expert.

Can you access and monitor HMI screens remotely over the internet?

Ethernet-equipped panels feature an integrated VNC server enabling mirror viewing from a tablet, PC, or phone over LAN/VPN. Cloud-enabled models (such as Weintek EasyAccess 2.0 or Kinco Edge) allow secure remote pass-through without static public IP addresses.

What are the warranty and engineering support terms for HMI terminals?

All HMI operator panels carry a 12 to 24-month official warranty. Our application engineers provide pinout diagrams, communication macros, and sample projects for standard PLC/VFD communication.
