Color Active-Matrix LCD Mini-Touch Panels Introduction 1

Introduction

Overview

The color active-matrix mini-touch panels contain a dedicated 256-color, 320 x 240

(HV) pixel, liquid crystal display (LCD). The mini-touch panels are self-contained

enclosures that use a microprocessor to control a wide range of audiovisual

products. Special mini-touch panel options include a video input port that is PAL-

and NTSC-compatible, and 12 pushbuttons (6 pushbuttons on each side) that can be

programmed to perform specific control operations. With the mini-touch panel

operating system, you can create custom pages with buttons, icons, sliders,

bargraphs, and imported logos and drawings. You can also use the TPDOC or

TPDesign custom touch panel design programs AMX offers to enhance your mini-

touch panel designs. Figure 1shows an AXU-MCA UniMount mini-touch panel.

Figure 2lists the mini-touch panel types and product names described in this

manual.
