Danfoss Power Solutions has expanded its series of programmable displays with the launch of the DM-Qt series, which supports Qt as a plug-in to PLUS+1 GUIDE. This allows user interface (UI) design to be developed through the Qt framework, which is seen as the new standard for creating embedded display UIs in the automobile industry. Qt is said to offer greater design flexibility and ease of use, enabling displays to be programmed faster.

Qt tools also allow for the reuse of templates across multiple device platforms and display brands. Elements of the UI design can be scaled according to application requirements, eliminating the need to create new UI designs from scratch for each machine platform or display manufacturer.

DM-Qt displays enable graphical development in Qt Design Studio. Application programming is managed in Danfoss’ PLUS+1 GUIDE software. The PLUS+1 service tool combines Qt-created graphics with application code to program DM-Qt displays. Danfoss says it will continue to offer its standard DM displays with UI design managed in VBSE by its proprietary graphics development tool within PLUS+1 GUIDE.

DM-Qt displays are available in the same sizes and with the same options as standard DM displays. Sizes include 7”, 10” and 12” displays, with features such as sunlight and wide-angle viewability, automatic brightness adjustment, improved touch responsiveness, and rugged design with high ingress protection ratings.

“Designing graphical UIs for our DM displays using Qt tools should take about half as much time as it would with other programs due to its extensive library of preexisting elements and a seamless workflow between design and development,” said Danfoss Power Solutions senior portfolio manager: displays Herman Oberoi. “By supporting the industry standard solution for UI development, we now have a great hardware product with incredible design capabilities powered by Qt.”
