DURABLE MONITORS FOR AN ACTIVE WORK FORCE
AMTFT LCD SCREENS
General Digital integrates the latest advances in LCD display technology including 15″ and 19″ (diagonal viewing area) panels. The active matrix TFT LCD screens offer up to 16.7 million colors, wide viewing angles and fast response times (suitable for live video).
HIGH PERFORMANCE VIDEO CONTROLLER
All standard Stowaway rack mount LCD monitors support non-interlaced analog video (Separate sync).
Features include Auto Setup, Horizontal/Vertical Positioning, Phase and Fine Tune Adjustments, Color Control, Multiple Languages, and Image Expansion (not all models).
PLASTIC/METAL CONSTRUCTION
The unique design of the Stowaway flip-up/flip-down rack drawer LCD monitor results in an enclosure that occupies only two vertical rack units (3.50″) when stowed.
When deployed and set in operating position, the monitor extends only 4.375″ to 6.375″ from the rack mount chassis. This feature increases operator workspace, especially important in space-constrained environments. The slide can be factory configured for the desired extension distance.
All of the interfaces (video, power) utilize locking connectors that are located on the bottom of the enclosure. A strain relief ensures that cables do not bind as the monitor is stowed or deployed.
The Stowaway’s display and electronics are housed in a durable, black plastic enclosure ideal for commercial and light industrial applications. You benefit from a reduced cost of materials and lead time.
The mounting bracket and bezel are constructed from lightweight aluminum, providing a durable assembly. The standard bezel is finished with a resilient black powder coat, although other colors may be available on a custom basis.
HINGED SLIDES
Custom designed slides allow the Stowaway to conveniently slide in and out of a 19″ RETMA rack while occupying only 2U of rack space. The slides also allow the display head to pivot up 90 degrees for optimal operation.
The Stowaway requires no assembly or disassembly to operate – simply slide the drawer out of the rack, pivot 90° on the robust hinges and commence operation.
PROTECTIVE GLASS/OVERLAY AND SEALED GASKET
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. Optionally, a glass or polycarbonate overlay can be added to the design to protect the LCD display.

KEYBOARDS AND ERGONOMICS
The low profile enclosure occupies minimal vertical rack space, and pivots 90° for operation (factory configured to flip up or flip down). This allows the device to be easily located at eye level within your 19″ RETMA rack to optimize ergonomics.
General Digital also supports a diverse product offering of commercial-, industrial- and military-grade rack mount drawer keyboard/pointing devices (KPDs) to complement the Stowaway. These KPDs can also be located within the rack to optimize ergonomics. Additionally, the KPD can be stowed out of the operator’s way while the monitor is still deployed.
OPTIONS AND ACCESSORIES
The Stowaway has been optimized for mass production and cost efficiency. As a consequence, the design does not offer the same level of flexibility as its sister products, the Rack Mount Hinge and SlimLine Micro. However, General Digital can still offer some limited customization to the design. Please speak with a Sales Engineerfor additional information.

Optical Characterization Services (2:16)
Unlike your phone, a display’s position cannot easily be adjusted to increase readability in direct sunlight. General Digital’s Optical Characterization Services take the guesswork out of quantifying how your display will perform under sunlight conditions. The following video explains the process in detail.
