AXEL 3000-55 PLATINE TERMINAL
1 INTRODUCTION
This
is to introduce the Axel 3000-55 Platine Terminal.
2 DESCRIPTION
2.1 When put with a monitor and
keyboard it becomes a very versatile unit with the general
functionality of;
a dumb terminal (VDU)
a networked terminal (PC)
a networked Serial Printer Server.
Whilst it does not have the full functionality of a PC, (no internal OS, Applications,
memory or
games) it would be ideal in a situation where this full functionality is not required.
This would
especially
be suitable for small remote sites.
2.2 The 3000-55, with Monitor and Keyboard together are know by EDP as a Netterm.
2.3 The 3000-55 can support two other serial
devices and/or a printer. It is possible for it to act as a
small terminal
server, or print server, though device numbers are very limited.
2.4 The appearance is of a small beige box
(pizza box), approx 11.5 inches square and approx 1.25
inches
high. Basically it is a platform for the monitor to sit on.
2.5 A web browser version will be available at a later date.
3 SPECIFICATIONS

3.2 The power consumption is 10 watts without

There is a single
