Aug. 24, 2017

Fairport, NY. Saelig Co. Inc. announced it is offering the ComfilePi, an industrial Raspberry Pi-based touch-panel PC. Leveraging the compact, ubiquitous Raspberry Pi 3 board, the ComfilePi inherits the Raspberry Pi 3’s 1.2-GHz 64-bit quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 processor, a Broadcom VideoCore IV GPU, and 1 GB of RAM. It comes in two screen sizes—7″ (CPi-A070WR) and 10.2″ (CPi-A102WR)—with both providing identical capabilities.

The displays are 24-bit color LCDs with a resistive touchscreen, and the units provide 22 ESD-protected GPIO lines, three USB 2.0 host ports, one RJ-45 Ethernet port, one I²C port, and two RS-232C ports. It also features stereo audio output as well as a piezo buzzer. Wi-Fi is also possible using an external USB dongle. Powered by a 12- to 24-VDC input, the ComfilePi’s primary storage is a microSD card.

The CPi-A070WR and CPi-A102WR are housed in flame-retardant ABS enclosures with an IP65 water-resistant front panel and offer an operating temperature range of 0 to 70°C.

The ComfilePi can be programmed in almost any language, including C, C++, Java, JavaFX, Javascript, python, C#, vb.net, and even emerging languages such as Rust, D, and Nim; it also supports .Net Core 2.0 applications. Due to the built-in Broadcomm VideoCore IV GPU, the ComfilePi can even render real-time 3D graphics.

Made in South Korea by Comfile Technology, an HMI controller manufacturer, ComfilePi products are available now from Saelig Co. Inc.,
