Chapter 1 General Information

1.1 Introduction

The TPC-66 series of touch panel computers consist of state-of-the-art
HMI (Human Machine Interfaces). The 5.7"/ 5.6" operator interface com-
bined with a RISC-based computing platform offers these key features:
• Bright Display:
The high-brightness LCD display provides a clear interface.
• Fanless:
By using a low power processor, the system does not have to rely on
fans, which often are unreliable, and attracts dust.
• Powerful Communication Capability:
The TPC-66 series provides a powerful I/O interface for easy
communication with other devices. The I/O interface includes serial
ports, RS-485 port, Ethernet and USB.
• Windows CE Support:
Advantech offers platform support for Windows CE. The optional
Windows CE operating system specifically for the TPC-66 is available
for Windows CE application program builders.
• JVM Support:
TPC-66 is powered by JVM that is compatible with Personal Java 1.2.
