Why Noritake VFDs?

Noritake VFD (Vacuum Fluorescent Display) is the best display component for industrial equipment. A self-emitting display gives outstanding visibility and brilliance.
As the inventor company for VFDs in 1967, Noritake offers display modules of the highest quality, durability, and long-term supply compared to anything else out there.

Reliable operation in any environment

VFD is used in message critical applications since individual dot or segment failure does not occur during normal service life.
VFD displays are capable of operating from -40C to +85C in high humidity conditions due to the materials and construction used.

Wide range of sizes, from compact to long message displays

Compact models 100mm or less, and long message display models are available - a wide range of sizes and functions to suit various display applications.

CJK + US/European fonts built-in, ready for international usage

English characters and digits, kana, and International fonts for 11 countries (mainly European fonts), as well as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean 2-byte fonts are built-in as standard.

Custom fonts, images, etc can be registered and displayed

Images such as icons, etc, and fonts etc, can be pre-stored (registered) in FROM.
The image can be quickly displayed with a short command, reducing the load on the host.
Font data in BMP format can be easily registered using the "GUF39" software. Up to 224 characters can be defined for original design fonts, foreign characters, or icons, etc.

Program Macro (a BASIC-like programming language) enables flexible control

GU-3000 series modules provide a runtime environment for the "Program Macro" programming language.
General-purpose I/O signals can be input, and operations based on that can control the display content and ouput signals.
Programs created using the Program Macro compiler, "Macro Soushi" can be loaded into the GU-3000 unit, which can then operate as a stand-alone host controller.

GPIO ports for controlling external devices such as switches or PLC

General-purpose I/O ports are useful for controlling switches, sensors, sequencers (PLC), or lights, etc.
PLC signal could be used to change the VFD module display. VFD module could output a signal to activate a rotating light.
