®
MMX
processor-based computer that is designed to serve as a human machine
interface (HMI) and as a desktop computer. It is a PC-based system with
12.1"/13.8" color TFT or STN LCD display, on-board PCI Ethernet
controller, multi-COM port interfaces and a 16-bit audio controller. With
built-in CD-ROM drive, floppy drive and PCMCIA expansion sockets, the
PPC-120/140 is as compact and user-friendly as a notebook computer.
Unlike notebook computers, the PPC-120/140 is more durable and

replace the traditional desktop computer. In addition, its "fit anywhere"
design makes it very flexible and able to be used in many different kinds
of installations. It can be wall mounted, panel mounted or stood upright on
a desktop.

integrated multimedia system lets you easily build a panel PC into your
applications. Common industrial applications include factory automation
systems, precision machinery, and production process control. It is also
suitable for many nonindustrial applications, including interactive kiosk
systems, entertainment management, and car park automation. Our panel
PC is a reliable, cost-effective solution to your application's processing
