SCHURTER has launched a new generation of intelligent input systems with capacitive touch technology. The CDS1 switches feature intuitive operation with a finger stroke, wipe or rotation on the touchscreen corresponds to that of a smartphone. The switch has been designed to meet customer demand for intelligent, ergonomic and high performance products.
Freely configurable
The user can decide what is displayed or activated in the case of wiping on the bright, round OLED display and the home LED. Hard image change, gentle fade-in and fade-out - it has absolute creative freedom. All functions are freely configurable.
The same freedom is enjoyed with regard to the glass layout. Any symbols on the soft keys can be realized. The visual appearance can also be further customized by means of an aluminium decorative ring.
Functions of the CDS1
SCHURTERs Configurable Display Switch CDS1 offers many functions which can be controlled via the machine control unit of the customer. The user input comes from finger movements like those most people are now familiar with when using smart phones: tapping, swiping or rotating.
On top of this, the customer can assign functions to each of the five soft keys of which one of them offers the possibility of an RGB colour backlight illumination with different lighting modes, like constant, blinking or pulsating.

Getting started with the CDS1
Generally, there is no operating system software necessary for the operation of the Configurable Display Switch CDS1. Nevertheless, to get a quick first impression of the abilities of the CDS1, a Machine Simulator software is available. This Machine Simulator software runs on Windows 7 or higher. The Machine Simulator software emulates a machine control unit of the customer and allows designers and users to try out the touch functions of the CDS1.

In today’s fast moving electronics world, robust circuit protection is essential for ensuring long-term reliability and safety. Taiwan Semiconductor’s latest snapback (Super Clamp) TVS technology incorporated into the LTD7S24CAH device marks a significant step forward in protecting sensitive circuits from transient voltage events.
In the world of connected devices, one truth stands firm: even the smartest technology fails if it can’t survive the environment it’s built for. Rain, dust, vibration, UV—these forces don’t care how elegant your circuitry is. They’re relentless. That’s why CamdenBoss created Node & Hub: a new family of enclosures engineered not just to protect electronics, but to make every installation faster, cleaner, and smarter.
HARTING has launched the new D-Sub PushPull housings. Designed to improve efficient and process-safe handling, the HARTING D-Sub PushPull transforms a well-known connector family into a simplified solution. The PushPull locking mechanism significantly improves the assembly process and reduces installation and maintenance time by up to 50%.
The STC31-C from Sensirion is an advanced gas concentration sensor designed for precise measurement of high-range carbon dioxide (CO₂) concentrations.
The STM32WBA wireless microcontroller family from STMicroelectronics brings designers the performance, efficiency, and security required for Bluetooth® Low Energy enabled applications.
Looking for a reliable way to monitor liquid levels in your next design? The Sensata Cynergy3 RSF Series float switches provide dependable point-level detection for water, fuels, chemicals, oils and other liquids, helping engineers improve system safety while reducing maintenance and downtime.
The HIROSE BM54 series floating board‑to‑board connector is designed to absorb real‑world tolerances without sacrificing density.
