EVOLVING TECHNOLOGY
General Digital™ is
incorporating more of its rugged LCD monitors with LED backlit displays.
LED
backlights have several advantages over CCFL (cold cathode
fluorescent lamp) backlights: they're
able to withstand harsher shock and vibration environments, they can
easily operate at temperatures as low as -40° C, their low voltage
allows them to run at high altitudes with no risk of arcing, their
low IR (infrared) signature makes them ideal for NVIS (Night Vision
Imaging System) applications. General Digital™ has
designed and sold several systems with display sizes of 8.4" to
20.1". Contact a
Sales Engineer today to discuss how LED backlighting can benefit your
application.
COMING SOON!
General Digital’s™
popular 1U high (1.75") SlimLine 1U™ flip-up LCD monitor/keyboard and
SlimLine Micro™ flip-up LCD monitor will be available in 2U high (3.50")
versions. Built just as rugged, the new models (unnamed as of this
writing) will incorporate many peripherals in the lower layer of the
enclosure, such as a CD/DVD drive, smart card reader, auxiliary USB
ports, integrated AC-DC and/or DC-DC power supplies and more. Stay
tuned for more info or contact a Sales Engineer.
NOW AVAILABLE!
 General
Digital™ is now offering large format LCD displays up to 70"+ (diagonal).
The Titan™ was introduced to satisfy the demand
for information density. These large displays are ideal for digital
signage and other environments in which large amounts of information
need to be clearly conveyed. As with most General Digital™ monitors,
the Titan™ Series supports a multitude of video inputs. Three
configurations are now available:
Titan
PanelMount™, Titan
RackMount™, Titan
Standalone™.
Please contact a
sales engineer for more information.
JUST RELEASED!
 Answering
the call for a rugged, sealed LCD monitor is General Digital’s™ Barracuda™ Series.
Sealed to IP67 and NEMA4X standards, the Barracuda™ enclosures
protect the LCD monitors against several contaminants: water immersion
(submersion) between 15cm and 1m depth, dust, falling dirt or debris,
rain, sleet, snow, splashing water, hose-directed water, and external
formation of ice on the enclosure.
The Barracuda™ Series is most at home in excessively dusty or wet
conditions, most often found in industrial and military environments
such as deserts, ships, outdoor kiosks, or simply constant exposure to
changing weather conditions.
Available in display sizes ranging from 6.4" to 24", the Barracuda™ Series
of LCD monitors can be customized to fit your particular needs.
Please contact a sales engineer
for more information.
