NEXTION NX8048K070-011R – 7.0” Enhanced Series USART HMI Resistive Touch Display with Enclosure

What Can Nextion Do?

During the process of embedded system design, one of the most annoying, time-consuming things is the human-machine interface design. You need a slick chart or slick graph, quick page designs, you need resources stored for quick processing, you will find the answer inside the amazing Nextion Products Line.

Nextion is optimized to meet your specific human-machine interface needs using open and standardized interfaces in hardware and software, which allows efficient integration into your automation systems.

Man machine systems, Visualization, Humans Interaction, Cognition, Visual perception, Machine intelligence, Cybernetics, even robotics, are just a few examples, where HMI concepts play an important role.

What Value Can Nextion Bring?

As an embedded engineer, do you remember those old days when you design the human machine interface for an embedded system? You have to spend weeks in low level design.

Nextion is designed to work with minimal design effort as all of the data and control signals are provided by the device to interface directly to the display. This offers enormous advantage to the designer in development time and cost saving and takes away all of the burdens of low level design.

Nextion will help you quickly design visually in hours not weeks, turn long coding work into simple drag and drop operation, at a reasonable cost. What you only need, is interface a serial port to Nextion display hardware.

Demo speaks louder than words, here comes another video show you how quickly and easily an application can be designed by dragging and dropping objections to the virtual screen on a WYSIWYG design IDE – Nextion Editor.

Compare to the basic Nextion displays, the enhanced ones have added some new functions, such as: supporting built-in RTC, supporting save data to Flash, supporting GPIO, larger flash capacitive, and larger CPU clock.

Nextion Editor Overview
Nextion Editor is a free human-machine interface (HMI) GUI development software for Nextion Basic Series, Discovery Series, Enhanced Series, and Intelligent Series. The software offers an easy way to create an intuitive and superb touch user interface even for beginners. Add a static picture as a background, define functions by components, you can make a simple GUI in minutes. The easy Drag-and-Drop components and simple ASCll text-based instructions will dramatically reduce your HMI project development workloads and develop projects rapidly in a cost-effective way. The Nextion product is the best balance HMI solution between cost and benefit with a low and decreased learning curve.

Nextion Editor Features
Versatile Character Encoding
With several character encoding, you are able to create the HMI project in your language characters and strings.

Fonts and Text Styling
The font creator allows you to generate the specific fonts applied in each component value or text attribute. e.g.Generate the font of “Arial” with Height “24” and Encoding “UTF-8”

25+Amazing WYSIWYG Components
Easy-to-use components to customized GUI at screen side allow you to develop projects rapidly in a cost-effective way

Component Attribute Setting
The component attribute setting gives you the options to design all the aspects of the component that you need.

Free Simulator Debug
Debug the HMI project at any time even without the Nextion Display. The instruction input area allows you to send any Nextion commands to check the feedback and interactions.

Nextion Operational Commands
The operational commands allow users to program the HMI interactions by coding in Events windows

Text-based Instruction Set
Simple ASCll text based instructions will dramatically reduce your HMI project development workloads

Support Simple Assignment Operators
To handle the calculation and assignment for the text and Numeric data, the simple assignment operators help.
