The panel and its seven buttons
What the Hectare Mini panel consists of, how it is mounted, and what each of the seven buttons does with a short and a long press.
The Hectare Mini panel has a 320 × 240 colour screen and seven buttons on the frame around it. The buttons are touch areas, not mechanical keys: a short touch is a short press; a touch held for about half a second is a long press.

- Power button. Touch-sensitive, at the top edge of the housing.
- Bracket. Lets you mount the panel on a flat surface at any angle, horizontally or vertically. For mounting on a tube, an additional bracket is available.
- The seven buttons. Three on the left, three on the right, one under the screen — see the table below.
- Screen. It also takes touches in some places, for example the digits of the number pad.
- Cable entry. One harness brings the speed sensor, the sensor network and the power supply to the panel.
