Where Does It
Make Sense?
If you like to write or use your own HMI/SCADA/Control software to use on a standard Windows CE® hardware, EZTouchScreen CE Computer is an ideal platform to consider. It has been designed to work reliably in an industrial plant versus just office environments. It has very low power consumption so that no fans or large heat sinks are required to maintain acceptable operating temperatures. This EZTouchScreen CE Computer will work from -10°C to 60°C for most models.
The Windows CE OS needs only 16-20 MB of memory as compared to 100+ MB for Windows XP or even XP embedded. Therefore, you can enjoy the benefits of the world of Windows without the use of moving media like a hard disc.
