Optional Devices

Capacitive touch screen needs a ground loop between human body and screen panel’s ground terminal. Otherwise it would not activate when touched with one hand. It is generally OK if the AC adapter is attached or the computer/panel is mounted on a vehicle’s metal parts. Holding the computer/panel with the other hand will form the loop, too.

PCMCIA Cover

Besides the attached PCMCIA rubber cover, there is an optional cover with a metal frame that can be fixed by screws. The cover provides protection from dust or water for cabled PCMCIA cards. Users may glue the cable outlet to seal it.

Vehicle Adapter

Converts power from car lighters or truck batteries to DC +19V, the same output ratings as AC adapters. It can power the system and charge the batteries simultaneously.

Remove or disconnect the adapter when leaving the vehicle to avoid battery exhaustion.

Dual Battery Charger

This charger provides two slots for the Primary and Secondary battery respectively. It allows charging of both batteries simultaneously. Accepts power from AC adapter or Vehicle adapter. It takes approximately 3 hours to fully charge both batteries.

DockUnder

There are 2 DockUnder models available. One for office installation and one for vehicle installation:

DockUnder-Office accepts 1 PCI card and duplicates COM1, COM2, Parallel, 2 USB, and PS/2 port. Ports are on the rear.

DockUnder-Vehicle duplicates COM1, COM2, Parallel, 2 USB, and PS/2 port. Ports are on the bottom.
