For reliable and intuitive operation and navigation in the vehicle interior.

As a leading manufacturer of application-specific and ergonomic HMI components and systems in the automotive industry, EAO expands its Series 09 in-Cabin product family to include a Rotary Cursor Controller and Rotary Pushbutton – for intuitive rotating, pushing and tilting in the vehicle interior.

The Series 09 Rotary Cursor Controller and Rotary Pushbutton Modules are designed for use in special vehicles, trucks and buses. They cover the functions of a rotary control, a pushbutton and, in the case of the Rotary Cursor Controller, also a digital joystick. The modules are ideal for control and selection within a vehicle display or navigation in a user menu. The two additional pushbuttons supplement the functionalities of the RCC and RPB and can be configured with individual HALO ring and symbol illumination and symbols depending on the product variant.

Typical Applications

• Navigation in display menus or user interfaces
• Adjustment of parameters and settings

The joystick function of the Rotary Cursor Controller is realised as a three-dimensional tilt function. The tilt function in the X / Y direction has been designed with integrated protection against unintentional contact and actuation, so that safe operation is possible even under difficult conditions, for example under strong movement.

Advantages

• Programmable RGB halo ring and symbol illumination (can be controlled separately)
• High-quality ergonomic automotive design with IP5K4 front protection
• Reliable HMI developed according to recognised automotive standard IATF 16949
• Available with CAN bus connection as communication protocol
• Versatile applications thanks to a wide range of functions and flexible symbols

Based on the previous products of the Series 09 In-Cabin Keypads, the Rotary Cursor Controllers are available in the variants SUPER and PLUS and are developed and produced in accordance with the renowned automotive standard IATF 16949. With this high level of safety, our Series 09 In-Cabin modules stand not only for intuitive, but also for reliable operation in the vehicle interior.
