New "FP-KIT" Bundles Flat Panel Display/Touchscreen Unit with PC Bus Driver
Card

November 9, 1992 -- Greer, SC . . . Computer Dynamics has announced the
introduction of the FP-Kit, which gives you everything you need to drive a
wide variety of flat panel displays and touchscreens from any PC. The
FP-Kit includes: a half-size PC bus driver card (the FP-Card); your choice
of electroluminescent, color or monochrome LCD, or plasma display; an
optional touchscreen (capacitive, infrared, or resistive); and all
cabling.

The FP-Card's state-of-the-art video controller provides 256 maximum
simultaneous colors on active matrix or passive matrix color LCDs. It also
gives 16 gray levels on monochrome LCDs or EL displays. The video
controller is fully compatible with IBM VGA at the hardware, register and
BIOS levels. The FP-Card also includes two PC compatible COM ports, one of
which can be used as the touchscreen interface, and a parallel printer
port with full readback. The COM ports may be configured as COM1/COM2,
COM3/COM4, or individually disabled. The FP-Card's power requirements are
+5V @ .5A, +12V @ 20 mA, and -12V @ 20 mA.

The FP-Kit's display and touchscreen are housed in a sturdy metal OEM
frame, ready for mounting in your enclosure. It measures just 12.6" x 8.6"
x 3".

Flat panel displays are replacing CRTs in many OEM applications for a
number of reasons: their small size, their suitability for space-critical
and portable applications; their no-compromise, flicker-free image
quality; longer life and lower power requirements; and the elimination of
radiation and EMI concerns. Many of these same advantages apply to
touchscreens over keyboards. In addition, touchscreens add to the appeal
of many OEM products, are easier to understand and operate, can be
operated with a gloved hand, and are available in several technologies
suited to different applications.

Pricing for the FP-Kit begins at $1270 in single quantities (includes the
FP-Card, a 640x480 monochrome LCD and cables). Delivery is stock to 30
days. Please call for pricing and delivery on other displays and
touchscreens. For more information contact Computer Dynamics, 107 S. Main
Street, Greer, SC 29650. Phone 803-877-8700 or FAX 803-879-2030.
