Dual flip-up LCD monitors, keyboard and trackball

For environments requiring twice the average display area, General Digital™ offers the TwoView™. Amazingly, this rack-mount unit measures only 2U (3.5in) high when stowed, yet accommodates two large flip-up displays (15in to 19in) and an integral keyboard with trackball.

The rugged TwoView features a lightweight enclosure made from a combination of steel and aluminum, and a spring coil latch to keep the displays secure when stowed. It’s easily up to performing for the most demanding industrial or military task.

As with most of General Digital’s™ LCD monitors, the TwoView comes with a full-featured video controller, offering support for NTSC, SECAM, PAL, RS-170, composite, sync-on-green,S-video, and numerous other video signals. For applications not requiring a keyboard and trackball, General Digital offers the TwoView Micro, which features dual flip-down displays, and can be rack-mounted as well as wall or ceiling-mounted.

LCD monitor, keyboard and pointing device

The SlimLine 1U™ and SlimLine Lite II™ series cleverly combine a flip-up LCD monitor, keyboard and pointing device in one unit and are the perfect complement to General Digital’s other innovative, rack-mount products. Optimized for its ultra-low profile (1.75in high), the SlimLine 1U is designed to save valuable rack space and expense by providing a reliable and user-friendly operator interface. It is also designed to meet industrial and MIL-STD-810E and TEMPEST Level 2 requirements.

The SlimLine Lite II measures a mere 2U (3.5in) high, yet is rugged enough to meet MIL-STD-810F requirements. Additionally, it can be configured with a smart card reader, which serves to streamline workflow and can be utilized as a common access card (CAC) reader.

Numerous keyboard options are available with which to configure your SlimLine Series units. Choose from commercial, industrial and military grades. Many are NEMA4 / NEMA12 sealed and meet MIL-STD-810F, MIL-STD-901D and MIL-STD-167B shock and vibration requirements. The pointing device for most keyboards is a 1-3/8 inch, durable, sealed trackball. Available keyboard-trackball interfaces are PS/2, PC and Sun USB, and Sun Type 5 (8-pin Mini DIN).

The SlimLine Series compact designs and industrial durability, combined with General Digital’s legendary configuration control and long product lifecycles, make them the ideal rack-mount solution for network administration, telecommunications, mobile applications, and more.
