1. Introduction
- Fanless / slitless design that reduces maintenance work
This product has a completely spindleless design in which the CPU fan has been eliminated and
mSATA and Half-Slim SSD drives have been used for storage. This eliminates concerns about the
ingress of dust and other foreign matter into the product. By minimizing the use of parts that degrade
over time, we have greatly reduced the cost of maintenance and inspection.
- Remote power management function to reduce operation tasks
This product supports timed/automated system start-up (iSmart). For example, it enables unattended
operation, such as starting to show information of an establishment in unison at opening time. Also, it
supports system start-up externally via network (Wake On LAN). It encourages significant labor saving
in operation.
- Major types of peripherals are supported with rich interfaces
It has a variety of extended interface such as DVI-I x 2, 1000BASE-T x 2, USB3.0 x 3 and serial. This
makes it possible to use this product in a variety of situations.
- Falling-off prevention tools and fixing clamps provided to avoid trouble caused by disconnected
cable
The USB removal prevention fitting and cable clamp enable you to prevent disconnections of USB
cables and other connectors that are not equipped with locking mechanisms, which enables you to
prevent problems from occurring.
- Models available with Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro and Windows Embedded Standard 7
installed
For Windows Embedded Standard installed model, it is possible to use the EWF*1 function of OS. It is
designed for safety required for embedding purpose, for example, prohibiting unwanted writing to the
mSATA or Half-Slim SSD with EWF function will relieve the concern about the writing limits to the
mSATA or Half-Slim SSD and prevent an unintentional system alteration.
*1 EWF (Enhanced Write Filter) is a function specific to Windows Embedded Standard that protects the disk from being actually written
by redirecting the writing to RAM.
- A wide range of power supplies (10.8 - 26.4VDC) supported
As the product supports a wide range of power (10.8 - 26.4VDC), it can be used in a variety of power
environments. The separately available AC adapter adds support for 100VAC power.
Supported OS
- Windows® Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro 64bit Japanese/English
- Windows® Embedded Standard 7 32bit/64bit Japanese/English
