Automation Direct EZ-420 Operator Panel LCD Display

Automation Direct EZ-420 EZ-Series Operator Panel LCD Display is a four-line, 4x20 character LCD panel used to display PLC data and host interactive menus, featuring five user-defined pushbuttons with LED indicators and five front-panel LEDs. It supports up to 256 programmable messages, with up to two embedded read-only data points and one read/write data point per message, plus a built‑in menu system with navigation arrows, data scrolling, and dynamic decimal point options. The unit operates from a 20–30 VDC supply and uses a rugged indoor NEMA 4, 4x front enclosure, with compatibility to all serial drivers and an EZ-TEXT-M-E manual included for configuration. Exterior dimensions are approximately 5 in wide by 7.4 in high by 1.6 in deep, and some listings identify the EZ-420 as retired (retired 05/2006), while the EZText FAQ notes RJ-12 cables can connect to DL06, DL250-1, and DL260 PLCs for EZ-to-PLC interconnects.
