Available now from Review Display Systems (RDS) the new AAEON OMNI line of expandable panel PCs is designed to shorten the lead time in customising a Panel PC. Now there is no need to strip down the system device to its component parts and reassemble it to the required specifications, says the company.
A simple expansion connector on the main CPU box makes this all possible. Dubbed the `OMNI- slot’, each module is connected to the CPU box through this slot. This `plug and play’ approach not only makes customisation and expansion much easier, it enables the device to be NRE free and therefore saving costs.
A total of eight modules are currently available: a USB/ COM/ LAN combo module, a dual LAN module, a MiniCard and SIM card module, an RS-232/422/485 module, an isolated RS-232/422/485 module, a digital I/O module, a CAN Bus module, and an audio module.
The panel itself is a 15.6-inch unit with a 16:9 P-CAP touchscreen and a full aluminium chassis that offers wider operating temperature and superior cooling.
