AMT to Introduce New PCI Setting Management Method

10/18/2017 | Bulletin No. : AMTNE17012

AMT continues to be the best touch solution partner for the industrial, medical, and commercial fields.  Our projected capacitive (PCAP or PCI) touch panels are proven to meet the most demanding requirements with powerful technology and a time-tested development process.  With AMT PCI products, customers need not sacrifice functionality, compromise on features, or accept less-than-impressive performance.  Best of all, AMT PCI touch panels enhance efficacy with flexibility.  Our PCI touch operation parameters are intuitive and easy to adjust and this flexibility allows our total touch solutions to excel in any application no matter the environment.

Since AMT PCI touch solutions are utilized in a myriad of environments and applications, a profusion of parameter configurations exist.  Parameters such as cover lens thickness, size of PCI touch panel, sensitivity, orientation, and many more all contribute to unique configurations that meet specific application or environmental requests.  A single system integrator may have multiple parameter configurations across several product lines.  In the past, AMT and our distributors have expended considerable effort setting these numerous and disparate customer parameter configurations into our firmware.  The number of parameter configurations also necessitates the creation of several OEM firmware versions in addition to the standard versions available to customers.  AMT is constantly improving its processes and developing new ways to streamline complicated systems.

Thus, in order to manage firmware and facilitate customer operations, AMT will separate the PCI firmware and parameter setting feature, and will be introducing cyclic redundancy check (CRC) codes to our products at the end of November.  “Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) is an error-detecting code commonly used in storage devices to detect accidental changes to raw data.”  AMT will use the CRC code to verify parameter settings before shipment and these codes will appear on the Control Board or COF tail product label.  This also means our firmware will not update as frequently nor will we create as many OEM firmware versions due to parameter differences.  From the generated CRC code, customers will also be able to quickly and easily ensure the correct parameter settings for the PCI products they receive.

AMT constantly improves its products, processes, oversight, and services in an effort to maximize the value of customer projects.  When you choose an AMT total touch solution, you receive a powerful product that performs beyond your specifications in the environments dictated by your applications.  The depth of our features is uncompromising and AMT service support facilitates design, integration, and troubleshooting.  To learn more about new AMT products and services, please contact your sales representative.
