Adaptable Design Serves Industry, Military, VARs and OEMs
The universal acceptance of LCD technology in the commercial, industrial and military sectors has revolutionized display applications. However, the demanding environments of many of these applications require performance that is not always addressed by commercial solutions. In particular, most LCD monitor manufacturers do not typically offer support beyond 24 months. Furthermore, their plastic enclosures afford little design flexibility or ruggedization. In response to this need, General Digital™ introduced the Saber PanelMount™, Saber RackMount™ and Saber Standalone™ lines of panel mount, rack mount and freestanding LCD monitors.

All Saber Series models satisfy the needs of System Integrators / VARs and OEMs / End Users with elegant simplicity, modular adaptability and cost sensitivity. Additionally, they are designed to operate from a single +12V regulated source that can be supplied by the customer, or may be purchased directly from General Digital™.

AMTFT LCD Screens
General Digital™ integrates the latest advances in LCD display technology in virtually any size you require. Our stock offering sizes range from 8.4" to 24.0" (diagonal viewing area). These panels provide the equivalent viewing area of much larger CRTs. All of our active matrix TFT LCD panels offer up to 16.7 million colors, wide viewing angles, and fast response times (suitable for live video). We qualify multiple sources of supply to ensure product availability and long life. If our stock offering does not suit your needs in terms of size, fit or function, please contact a Sales Engineer and we will work with you to configure a system to your specifications.

Video Support
All standard Saber RackMount™ units support interlaced and non-interlaced analog video (Separate, Composite, Sync-on-Green). Support for STANAG 3350 A, B and C Analog SoG video is also included as a standard feature. In addition, they can be optionally configured to support analog, digital and integrated video (DVI-A, DVI-D, DVI-I), as well as serial digital interface (HD-SDI, SD-SDI) video.

Live Video Support
The Saber RackMount™ can be optionally configured to support NTSC, PAL, RS-170, and SECAM video in composite video or S-video format. The response time of the active matrix TFT makes it the ideal platform for live video input.

High Performance LCD Controller
Internal to our LCD monitor is an LCD controller that converts analog video signals into the proper digital signals required to drive the display. It is the LCD controller that enables the LCD monitor to function as a direct replacement for the traditional CRT. The controller provides intuitive operation of its controls and calibration through the use of a membrane pad and a series of on-screen menus. All models support the following display image controls: auto and manual setup, brightness, contrast, horizontal position, vertical position, tuning, size, individual RGB adjust, image expansion on/off, system information, run-time counter, and signal level. Advanced features are supported on a selective basis (image rotate and invert, audio controls, advanced scaling).

Protective Glass and Sealed Gasket
General Digital™ protects your display by adhering a piece of glass to the surface of the LCD panel to guard the liquid crystal material from making direct contact with foreign objects. In addition, a sealed gasket is installed between the display and bezel to protect the monitor’s electronics from dust, liquids (e.g., spilled coffee) or other debris.

Metal Construction
General Digital’s™ rugged 19" rack mount aluminum bezels and enclosures are designed to withstand the rigors of commercial, industrial, and military (COTS) environments alike. Our rack mount monitor enclosures are completely irridited to provide protection from corrosion and improve shielding properties where parts make contact with one another. All external surfaces are finished with a durable black powder coat. Unlike plastic enclosures (commodity products), whose mold is usually designed for a specific display and control electronics, our modular enclosures offer superior configuration flexibility. This modular and flexible design also permits us to introduce contemporary technologies without requiring extensive redesign. Our products are intentionally designed to support LCD displays (and other electronics) from numerous manufacturers. This capability enables us to minimize the impact of a single supplier’s decision to obsolete, allocate or redesign their display. This, in turn, dramatically improves our ability to maintain configuration control or extend the manufacture life of our products.

Additionally, the COTS (Commercial-Off-The-Shelf) versions of our 19" and 20" Saber RackMount 901D™ models are compliant with MIL-STD-901D, Grade A and Class II Lightweight Shock requirements.

Total Design Control
General Digital™ gladly offers its engineering services to customers who require special customization of our devices to meet their commercial, industrial or military requirements. Please speak with a Sales Engineer for additional details.

Configuration Control & Product Longevity
We at General Digital™ are completely responsible for the design and manufacturing of our products, allowing us to maintain nearly total control of their future. Our experience supporting Department of Defense programs has taught us the value of designing products with foresight so that they can be manufactured, serviced and upgraded for many years. Though the market introduces new innovations and product upgrades at an alarming rate, our product management team knows the importance of proactive customer notification and can offer product adaptation with similar or equivalent performance before designs become obsolete, thereby extending the product life cycle.

Private Labeling
General Digital™ encourages relationships with Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and other organizations, and is willing to maintain your company identity (private label) on our products. Please speak with a Sales Engineer for additional information.

Options & Accessories
A multitude of options and accessories are offered in support of all General Digital™ products: vandal shields, EMI / RFI shields, antireflective coatings / antiglare etches, touch screens, power supplies, keyboards / pointing devices, rack slides, video / serial / power cables and more.
