The panel and its seven buttons

ExplainedHectare Mini firmware · 2.2.8

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.

The panel from the front and from the side, and its harness.
  1. Power button. Touch-sensitive, at the top edge of the housing.
  2. 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.
  3. The seven buttons. Three on the left, three on the right, one under the screen — see the table below.
  4. Screen. It also takes touches in some places, for example the digits of the number pad.
  5. Cable entry. One harness brings the speed sensor, the sensor network and the power supply to the panel.
