2.2.2. The Touchscreen Tablet
The Intel® based Windows® touchscreen tablet has an 8.3-inch screen with a resolution
of 1920 X 1200 pixels. It is directly mounted on the remote control unit of the Intel®
Cockpit Controller (CTR) and cannot be removed.
The tablet is powered by the battery of the CTR and must be switched ON before the
CTR is powered ON.
The touchscreen tablet serves as a video monitor, displays flight information and gives
access to extended functionality (see “THE TOUCHSCREEN TABLET” on page 99).
2.3. THE INDEPENDENT CAMERA CONTROL (ICC)
The Independent Camera Control (ICC) is an optional part of the Inspection Package
(see “SOFTWARE FEATURE PACKAGES” on page 87). Thanks to the ICC, a camera
operator can control the main camera functions from a gamepad, which is connected
to the CTR via a USB port (USB port 2 – 4). The USB ports are in the back of the CTR in
the upper left corner (see “Intel® Cockpit Controller (CTR) Overview” on page 24).
