The FEC AM-1017 Aer Monitor is a 17-inch bezel-free display designed for Point-of-Sale (POS) applications. It is characterized by its slim, compact, and robust design, making it suitable for various environments. The monitor is a compatible component of the FEC AerPOS Terminal Series, allowing for easy removal and installation.

Function Description:

The Aer Monitor AM-1017 serves as a primary display unit for POS systems, offering both projective capacitive touch (P-Capacitive) and resistive touch options. It integrates various peripheral devices and supports customer displays, including VFD/LCM and a second 15-inch LCD pole display. The monitor features easy-to-access On-Screen Display (OSD) controls for adjusting brightness and other display parameters.

IP Rating: IP65 front panel compliant (for both resistive and projective capacitive touch options)

Usage Features:

Bezel-Free Design: Offers a sleek appearance and easier cleaning.
Touch Technology: Available with either reliable tempered glass on projective capacitive touch or high-quality resistive touch, both ensuring durability and IP65 front panel compliance.
Space Efficiency: Compact size suitable for various POS applications.
Peripheral Support: Supports a range of peripheral devices, including MSR, Finger Print Receiver, RFID, and i-Button.
Customer Display Integration: Can be integrated with VFD/LCM customer displays and a second 15-inch LCD pole display.
OSD Controls: Intuitive OSD buttons (Power Switch/Status, Menu Up/Increase/Auto Tune, Menu Down/Decrease, Display OSD Menu/Next Page) are invisible until touched and automatically disappear after 5 seconds of inactivity.
Installation Flexibility: The display module can be easily disassembled and reassembled from the main unit of the terminal, and it supports a pole-type installation for a second screen.
Driver Support: Comes with a variety of drivers for different operating systems (Windows XP, POS Ready 2009, Win7, POS Ready7), available for download from the FEC website.
Touch Calibration: For resistive touch, the EETI TouchKit Tools allow for 4-point or 9-point linearization for better touchscreen linearity and accuracy. Projective capacitive touch typically does not require 4-point calibration.

Maintenance Features:

Cleaning: Disconnect from AC outlet before cleaning. Use a damp cloth; avoid liquid or spray detergents.
Environmental Protection: Keep away from humidity. Protect from overheating by not covering air convection openings.
Power Management: Disconnect from power source if not used for a long time to prevent damage from transient over-voltage.
Troubleshooting Guide: Provides guidance for common issues such as touch panel malfunction (checking connections, HID USB detection, driver installation, cabling, and calibration) and OSD panel unresponsiveness (ensuring single, sustained touches).
Professional Service: In case of damage (power cord/plug, liquid penetration, moisture exposure, malfunction, physical damage), the equipment should be checked by qualified service personnel.
Storage Temperature: Avoid storage in environments below -20°C (-4°F) or above 60°C (140°F) to prevent damage.
