Dedicated HMI or Windows CE

The standard EZAutomation Touch Panel has a dedicated processor, as opposed to running on a computer platform system......

The benefits of a dedicated Touch Panel:

A much faster response time for touch inputs, typically 0.75 seconds instead of slightly more than a second in a Windows CE environment.
A Windows® device is inherently slower in response time because it has a lot of overhead to cover during start-up and operation.
A dedicated processor uses less memory, does not require a boot-up, requires only 2MB to trend data, and is not subject to hardware tampering.
Nor can it be infected with a virus from the Internet.

The benefits of a Windows CE system:

Has the advantage of running user selected software in applications such as Word, Excel, Adobe Acrobat, PDF, and MPEG(Video).
Many users desire to run a program to show machine operation or key maintenance issues.
Others want to embed the Operating or Maintenance Manual as a PDF file. There are as many unique applications as memory available to run them.
