Ace Your Next Display Project with PanelPilot

Listen to this article

The PanelPilot range from Lascar Electronics is a unique series of smart graphic displays that enable the creation of fully bespoke interfaces without writing a single line of code. From e-paper to full colour high resolution touch screens, they are perfect for simple applications or even as full process-controlling HMIs.

The top of the range PanelPilot ACE is a unique platform ideal for rapid development of touchscreen machine interfaces and system monitoring displays.  Available in 4.3” and 7” versions, ACE uses Lascar’s own Design Studio software that allows app development using an intuitive drag and drop interface. ACE display units accept inputs including 4-20 mA analogue, direct digital I/O, RS485, CANBUS and MODBUS. There are also digital alarm outputs and a built-in PWM generator.

The Design Studio software contains powerful tools such as PID, maths and logic builders, multi-channel data logging and graphing.

Lascar’s online PanelPilotACE University shares templates and graphics to use in your display project as well video tutorials for basic and advanced users.  

Next in the PanelPilot line-up is the M series, versatile units available in 2.4”, 2.8” and 3.5” models. This range includes versions that are suitable for voltage or current inputs, and also products that are sealed to IP67.

The M series are programmable panel meters featuring dual analogue inputs, alarm outputs and colour touchscreen displays. Configured using the free PanelPilot M Software, there over 50 app templates available including bar-graph, tank level, analogue style and trend graphs. Users can customise colours, text labels, units and input scaling before uploading to the display.

The newest addition to the PanelPilot range is the SGD 21-B – a low cost, low power, sunlight readable, single channel voltmeter with a sleek monochrome e-paper display. The unit is configured with the free PanelPilot B software. The software provides six templates to choose from, and users can customise labels, scaling and alarms. Modest power requirements make this display ideal for use in battery-powered handheld instruments.

About us

Formed in 1977, Lascar Electronics started life in a garage in Essex, England designing and manufacturing a range of digital panel meters and complementary power supplies. In 1980, with sales showing significant growth, the company moved from Essex to its current location in Whiteparish, England where its headquarters are still located. In 1994, the company extended its current range of digital displays and power supplies with the introduction of its first EasyLog data logger. In 1997, the company opened its first direct United States operation in Savannah, Georgia and in 2002 relocated its facility to Erie, Pennsylvania where it still resides. In 2010, the company consolidated its manufacturing and procurement departments with the purchase of an office in Kowloon, Hong Kong, from where the company directs its manufacturing and quality facilities. In 2015, Lascar opened a dedicated global distribution centre in Salisbury, England from where its parts are shipped to customers and distributors across the globe. Today the company operates from four direct global sites in the United Kingdom, United States and Hong Kong supplying product directly to customers throughout the world and through its network of over 100 global distributors and resellers.
