The JUPITER touch panel family provides the cost-effective solution not only for industrial environment. Wherever graphic display of information and/or user interaction is required, the JUPITER series is the easiest way to realize projects.

For greater flexibility all interfaces are provided as 2.54 mm headers with standard pin-out. So you are free in placing the connectors to meet your design ideas.

You may develop powerful real time applications either on a preinstalled Windows CE with .NET Compact Framework 2.0. or Linux. Especially for graphic user interfaces, Microsoft's development tools are the best choice gain optimal results in affordable time.

The JUPITER system with open frame touch screen is available with two different CPUs. Software features are adapted to each CPU - Freescale i.MX31 ARM11 or NXP LH7A404 ARM9. Please check which processor supports all the features and services you need.

JUPITER systems are shipped with a standardized operating system (image) and related drivers and libraries. To customize the operating system to the individual requirements of your application, the Windows CE board support package (BSP) is required, which is available as binary for download on our FTP Server.
To use the BSP, the Microsoft Platform Builder is essential. You may need to purchase this additonal software from one of the Microsoft Windows Embedded distributors.
