1 Preamble

The roda DP860-UX is a multi-function-display developed for rough
environmental conditions with a screen diagonal of 31.8 cm (15’’).
This screen is able to perform a maximum of physical resolution of
1,280x1,024. 16.7 million colours can be represented.

Caused by its robust metal cabinet it can be used in military vehicles.

It has a resistive USB tochsystem, a USB touchcontroller with 8
function keys (F1-F8) and an integrated 2-port USB 2.0 Hub for
direct connection of two USB periphery devices like keyboard or
mouse.

There is also an integrated stereo amplifier with two speakers which

can be connected to the soundcard.

The roda DP860-UX has signal input devices for DVI and RGB

analogue. The signal sources can be chosen by the On Screen
Display (OSD). Representation can be in 1:1 (scaled) or it can be in
the usual resolutions like 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768. In the case
of 1024x768 electronic will address the passive picture elements in
blue.

OPTION: Picture in Picture (PIP) Functionality

The internalal electronic of DP860-UX is able to work up and show

two signal sources at the same time. The electronic distinguishes
between a primary screen (PS) and a secondary screen (SS). The
secondary screen is usually connected by video signal source and
partially cross-fades the primary screen which shows the DVI or
RGB analogue signal source.

The secondary screen can not be scaled and is able to work out

input timings with max. 755 horizontal pixels. Optionally roda can
deliver it with two changeable video inputs and can be connected
with CCIR or NTSC signal sources. One video input is a CVBS
(FBAS) input, the second one can be realised as CVBS (FBAS) or
as Y/C (SVHS). The recognition of the colour happens
automatically.

INFORMATION: The second screen can show a standard VGA

picture or boot picture, if a video picture is shown on the first screen.
