1. Introduction About the Product

This product is a FA personal computer equipped with the Intel ® Atom processor E3845. It has sufficient performance with low power consumption, as well as set up at a small area.

It has extension interfaces such as Analog RGB, HDMI, 1000BASE-T, USB 3.0, and serial. These Units are ideal for a wide range of embedded applications, such as control devices and information terminals based on general-purpose PC OSes.

I adopt Embedded-type chipset and CPU. The use of parts that can be stable supply, can be used with confidence.

Features

◆

Contributing to reduction of running cost and promotion of energy efficiency

■

It adopts the low-power platform with Intel® Atom consumption while ensuring sufficient performance.

The compact size that can install at a small area

■

This product is a compact size PC of 76(W) x 193(D) x 225(H)mm that can install at a small area. It is also possible to attach to the VESA standard 75 x 75, 100 x 100mm using the stand.

The silent design that held the noise in check

■

It minimizes the noize while ensuring sufficient performance by abolishing a CPU fan.

Major types of peripherals are supported with rich interfaces including

■

It has a variety of extended interface such as Analog RGB x 1, HDMI x 1, 1000BASE-T x 1, USB3.0 x 1, USB2.0 x 2, serial (RS-232C) x 1.

(TM)

Processor E3845 that realizes lower power

Safety design required for embedded applications

■

For Windows Embedded Standard installed model, it is possible to use the EWF*2 function of OS. It is designed for safety required for embedding purpose, for example, prohibiting unwanted writing to the CF card with EWF function will relieve the concern about the writing limits to the CF card and prevent an unintentional system alteration.

EWF (Enhanced Write Filter) is a function specific to Windows Embedded Standard that protects the disk from being actually

written by

redirecting the writing to RAM

The wireless LAN of the conformity IEEE802.11b/g/n (Only in VPC-500R-76412B)

■

It is the conformity IEEE802.11b/g/n and copes with coding security such as WEP, WPA.
