• Support for the Coffee Lake-S Intel Core processor series
  • Available with a power-saving, high-performance 8th-generation Core processor for advanced computation and drawing performance while minimizing power consumption. Reliable supply is ensured by the adoption of embedded CPUs. In addition, Moreover, CPU built-in high definition graphic chip Intel HD Graphics 630 makes it possible to play smooth full-HD image to dual displays of DVI-D and DisplayPort.
• Freely expandable peripherals and a rich variety of interfaces
  • Equipped with expansion interfaces that include DVI-D, DisplayPort, 1000BASE-T × 3, USB 3.2 Gen 2 (USB 3.1) × 6, USB 3.2 Gen 1 (USB 3.0) × 2, serial (RS-232C) × 1, serial (RS-232C/RS-422A/RS-485) × 1, audio, and GPIO (isolated, Input × 4, Output × 4). This makes it possible to use this product in a variety of situations.
• Highly noise-resistant design with separated FG and SG
  • Induction noise is the great enemy of electronic devices, and is produced by motors and other rotating devices, as well as by high-power actuators. Separating the FG (frame ground) and SG (signal ground) prevents malfunctions caused by induction noise from the FG.
• PCI Express x8 high speed expansion slot
  • For PCIe 8 lane x 2 slot P2 model,you can select expansion cards without compromise, such as image processing, camera input, FPGA, NIC, etc.
• “Power failure protection system” features power-off without OS shutdown
  • Equipped with the “Power failure protection system” function that protects data and prohibits writing to storage in the event of power failure. Along with the lockdown (disk writing suppression) function of Windows 10 IoT Enterprise, power can be safely turned off without a shutdown process. Moreover, file system damage or data damage caused by sudden power failure can be avoided.
• Custom BIOS supporting real-time OS
  • The CPU cores/threads and onboard devices can be flexibly customized to match the OS. System availability is improved by original functions such as storage backup/restore and self-diagnosis functions.
