Optional Devices
21
Touch Screen
Resistive or capacitive touch screens for direct finger touch or pen input instead
of mouse or touch pad.
Note: Capacitive touch screen requires a “grounding” to work properly.
Otherwise it will not activate when touched. Generally the grounding is
sufficient 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
the human body will act as grounding, too.
PCMCIA Cover
Besides the attached PCMCIA rubber cover, there is an optional cover with a
metal frame that can be fixed using screws. The cover provides protection from
dust or water for cabled PCMCIA cards. Users may seal the cable outlet after
installation.
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.
