Embedded linux meets java - touch panel PC OTP57V

Embedded linux meets Java. This combination offers a more powerful range for user customized applications. To bring this in the automation environment: AE SYSTEMS now offering the new operator touch panel PC OTP57V with:

• A complete x86 based 32bit PC comptabile hardware as industrial all in one PC
• Bright 5.7" display with TFT color and VGA resolution in 640x480
• Integrated touch screen as easy useable pointing device
• Several interfaces e.g. COM ports, USB, onboard CAN controller, ethernet LAN networking interface

The whole system is designed to fit perfectly in 19" system standard. An embedded linux kernel and JAVA VM is preinstalled (Java 6, J2SE) and ready to run. This allows the creation of user defined applicatons by standard development tools and the OTP57V can be the optimized base for own control applicatons in automation, in machines and more.

Embedded Design: Free choice of the operating system

Bigger picture

Linux, Java and Windows - three possible solutions for operating system in embedded business. Our free programmable keyboard based terminals supports linux. Some touch systems supports Java or Windows. And a small userless data logging system works with linux. These are only some possibilities to bring the best technology base for the favourite application to the user.

We tryed to make it clear - a small product design table will show the difference. See at the end of our hardware page:

Programming Industrial Terminals - Linux and more

Bigger picture

Getting more information about programming: It is important to understand using linux in industrial, automation and data capturing environment offers full freedom in designing individual applications.

Use a modern programming language e.g. C / C++. Use a graphical toolkit e.g. SDL / FLTK for getting modern graphical design. Use the webserver for web access. FTP / telnet for file transfer and easy remote access. And of course the TCP IP communication for all the things you want to share between linux system and your local network / internet / intranet.

Even for the people who are not "natural born" linux programmers: they can also use the systems. A special programming toolkit allows the creating of individual applications WITHOUT programming knowledge. The solution is a simple XML software interpreter - which interprete a special XML file as programm during realtime - and runs the XML file as programm. For decoding such an XML file we are offering a special windows software - the XML TRM CODE GENERATOR which includs a lot of libs e.g. for network access, barcode, digital IN / OUT, SQL clients and more....

Linux Automation Starter Kit

For programming linux in industrial and automation environment applications:

our new Starter Kit TRM416 / TRM816 contains a:

• linux based terminal system for rough and industrial use (e.g. with IP65 water- and dust protected keyboard)
• Various linux samples for creating own applications
• A TRM CoLinux SDK - a programmers software development kit linux based on Windows (see CoLinux information here)
• An additiv programmers toolkit based on XML - create individual applications wihthout extensive linux programming (see information here)
• Libs e.g. for networking, barcode / RFID / proximity readers, SQL clients (for Microsoft and mySQL databases)
•  samples and much more features for an easy getting starting with own applications and experiences.

Embedded Linux System for Smart Metering

This is what we called an EMBEDDED LINUX application!

Base of our smart metering gateway MGW986 with x86 32bit LOW power cpu is an embedded linux version and a preconfigured software for m-bus meters. Gets the data from the meter, stores them inside and gives full access to internet / network access.

The m-bus protocoll is included inside the linux software. Additionally we use the web server inside the MGW for a direct web access.

New English Website

To make it easier for robots and search engines we just finished a general update at our english pages: all english content are moved into an english subdirectory now. This makes it easier for us also - german and english pages are better divided and easier to control and to handle for the web creation team.

See the result here: www.terminal-systems.de new home page!
