Chapter 1 General Information
1.1 Introduction
The POC-155 is a multimedia Pentium® Mobile processor-based com-
puter that is designed to serve as a Point of Care terminal (POC). It is a
PC-based system with 15" color TFT LCD display, on-board PCI express
Ethernet controller, multiple COM port interfaces and 18-bit stereo audio
controller. With a built-in CD-ROM drive and mini PCI expansion slot,
the POC-155 is as compact and user-friendly as a notebook computer.
This simple, complete and highly integrated multimedia system lets sys-
tem integrators easily build a Point of Care Terminal into their applica-
tions. Common industrial applications include factory automation
systems, precision machinery, and production process control. It is also
suitable for many non-industrial applications, including interactive kiosk
systems, entertainment management, and car park automation. The POC-
155 is a reliable, cost-effective solution to your application's processing
requirements.
