General Information

EAC BOX

Chapter 1 General Information

The EAC (Embedded Automation Controller) is high performance, fanless, low power consuming computer. The EAC is designed with wide temperature ranged, Anti-shock, Anti-vibration, isolated RS232/422/485 serial ports, wide voltage range power input acceptable, and anti-corrosion protection. The EAC is born to the demands of maritime applications as navigation, ship automation, surveillance, rugged industry and light military applications.

All product designs follow IEC-60945 Maritime Navigation and Radio- communication Equipment and Systems requirements.

1.1 Features about the Embedded Automation Controller

Here are features of Embedded Automation Controllers:

Fanless, Low Power CPU with Versatile Functions

The EAC with Intel Core-i7 3655LE / QM67 Chipset that delivers the most performance per watt available in embedded computing systems. It’s a

PC-based system with DDR3 RAM, HDMI port, multi-COM port interface, and on-board 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet, USB port. It is a compact design to meet the demanding performance requirements of most applications.

Wide Voltage Input Range and Isolated Power Input

For marine and transportation power source characteristic, our displays use wide voltage range from 9 to 36V input acceptable with isolation resistance at

1.5KV DC. 12V and 24V DC input are also available.

55

°°°°C

-15

Wide Range Operating Temperature

With excellent design on heat dissipation, the EAC could bear more critical environment condition in temperature. This range is from 55°C to -15°C. Based on this feature, the EAC could meet most of the requirement of marine time applications.

EAC BOX

Anti-Shock and Vibration

With anti-vibration and shock mechanical design makes our EAC solution enhanced shock and vibration resistance.

PCMCIA Connector

The EAC reserved PCMCIA for extension function use.

Isolated Serial Ports with RS232////422////485

For mostly used connection of peripheral devices, the EAC provides rich serial ports for NEMA compliance device, like GPS, ARPA, Gyro…etc. And for protecting these devices from been surge voltage, isolated serial ports provide

2.5K DC protection by Auto-isolator technology to protect expensive devices.

Customize your products

Base on our well-experience modulated competence, we can do very flexible and tailor-made design fulfilling any of customer’s solution. For different panel characteristics, mechanical design, and electronic component, we can make it for you.

Approved EAC

Winmate EAC designs are all followed IEC-60945 Maritime Navigation and

Radio- communication Equipment and Systems requirements.

The EAC series consist in different platform of industrial computing. By testing for usability in a ship’s wheelhouse during different ambient conditions. All these models can fulfill most of the demands in maritime applications especially for navigation, ship automation and maritime surveillance.

Chapter 2 Installation

2.1 General installation

The EAC can be applied for several different installation methods, Including desktop, wall mount, 100x100 VESA mount with screws only; 75x75 VEAS or

DIN Rail with bracket. For DIN Rail mount is normally for the industrial fields use, it’s easy to follow few steps to fix the display product in customer’s fixture.

Check the mechanical and mounting concept as below first. The fixture dimension and mounting holes based on drawing.

EAC BOX

1. Align the EAC to the fixture on the back, and screw by four M4 x 8 mm above bolts with nuts.

EAC BOX

2. VESA mount with mounting kit using screw by four M4 x 8 mm above bolts with nuts by special request. (Non-DNV approved)

3.(Optional) Use two M4x 8mm bolts to drill through the DIN Rail mounting bracket into the mounting holes on the rear side of EAC

100x100 VEAS.

(Non-DNV approved)
