Buttons and Touchscreens on a Single Panel:
Responding to customer requests and market needs, Distec now offers optional PCAP buttons for its robust PCAP touchscreen monitors and POS-Line series panel PCs. While touchscreens, especially those with multi-touch capabilities, are in high demand for industrial HMI technology, they won't completely replace traditional push-button controls anytime soon. On the contrary, integrating both into a single panel is becoming increasingly popular. "Industrial customers often prefer a combination of touchscreen operation and conventional buttons," said Michael Dernbach. Traditional buttons are primarily used for controlling safety-related commands.
POS-Line 15-24 inch industrial monitor
family combines the latest technology with the most attractive design. This provides a suitable solution for all users requiring a robust metal housing for harsh working environments, reliable 24/7 operation, and (depending on the use case) a variety of different controller and front panel options. A passively cooled CPU, as needed, offers silent 0 dB operation and extended device lifespan. Combined with front-end IP protection up to IP65 and a temperature range of -25°C to +65°C, they are ideal for use in harsh industrial and digital signage environments, such as process and data visualization in production and logistics buildings, or digital signage in public areas.
