OFF-HIGHWAY MARKET CUSTOM SOLUTIONS
—
We specialize in creating user interface devices that communicate via CAN-bus (J1939 and CANopen protocol) to control onboard systems. A standard range of keypads, joystick/encoders, and displays are offered as base products ready for quick, cost-effective customization. These products simplify mechanical installation into the vehicle cab and electrical integration with the vehicle’s control units.
Grayhill takes a proactive approach to help identify job specs. Our engineers look beyond basic functionality to improve operator efficiency and ergonomics. This approach yields more intuitive controls that reduce operator fatigue and increase productivity. They optimize product design to simplify installation into the vehicle cab which reduces the OEM’s assembly time. Further, these custom products are programmed for easy integration with the vehicle’s onboard control unit.

Grayhill has extensive experience in providing complete armrest solutions. We envision the future of innovative cab designs to be driven by smart electronics like the Touch Encoder and Instinct+ panel that is equipped with pressure-sense and haptic feedback.
This solution includes an ergonomically optimized layout of keypad modules, and rotary switches which are used for display navigation. The rugged die cast aluminum housing and molded plastic cover help the system survive UV and chemical exposure, as well as dust and water ingress. Grayhill’s 25L Mechanical Encoders and 62AG Series Optical Encoder were also integrated in the assembly.
The most commonly seen customizations on our 3J Vehicle Display Controller are legends and backlight. Grayhill can also fully customize the form factor of the device to provide a more adaptable footprint.
