AIS Unveils a 12.1' ISOBUS Virtual Terminal Display Compliant with ISO 11783 and SAE J1939 Protocols for OEM and ODM Farming and Agricultural Machinery Applications



IRVINE, CA - American Industrial Systems Inc. (AIS), introduces a 12.1" ISOBUS Virtual Terminal designed for Farming, Automotive, and Agricultural Machinery, Diagnostic Equipment, and monitoring. The AIS ISOBUS Panel PC is completely sealed to IP67 / NEMA 6 rated standards for water and dust protection, capable of operating in the harshest environments including water submersion. In additional to sealing the display is complaint with MIL-STD-810F rating for vibration, shock, and drop for in vehicle applications. A touchscreen HMI interface is built-in for ease user interface for monitoring and control of CAN-bus (controller-area network) peripherals. The entry level CAN-bus Terminal is pre-designed and engineered for quick deployment and integration to new and existing farming and agricultural applications.

Powering the ISOBUS system is a high performance fanless 1.6 Ghz Intel® Atom(TM) processor, designed for long product life cycle and reliable operation in industrial conditions. A high brightness 1000 nit sunlight readable LCD panel is standard, providing sharp crisp images in outdoor environments. Staying connected is simple with built-in 802.11b/g wireless support, CAN-bus connectivity, and optional GPS support for location and tracking. AIS' PC-based ISOBUS Virtual Terminal (Isobus-VT) complies with the latest ISO 11783 and SAE J1939 protocols, allowing manufacturers easy deployment into field machinery, increasing productivity, and reducing time to market.

A rugged corrosion resistant aluminum alloy housing protects the internal components; meeting Military Standard 810F specs for anti-shock and vibration requirements. Military standard M12 connectors are used for input output connections, which are all rated to IP67 standards, maintaining the sealing integrity of the system. The ruggedized system is capable of withstanding -10 to 50 degrees Celsius operating temperatures and compliant with Military 810F standards for anti-shock, vibration, and drop; providing a robust vehicle mounted system in extreme environments. AIS' commercially available touchscreen ISOBUS system provides a cost effective, long life cycle system for logistics, farming, automotive, transportation, marine, and agricultural industries where performance and reliability are paramount.
