Panasonic is introducing the newest addition to their line of POS workstations, the Lite-ray POS workstation. It offers performance and reliability with an open platform that provides the flexibility to accommodate virtually any POS software application. Its compact size and all-in-one design deliver an array of functionality usually only found in higher priced systems at an affordable price.
 
With a design based on Panasonic’s Stingray workstation, Lite-ray is purpose-built with a fanless design featuring fewer moving parts. Its Intel Atom Processor is power-optimized to deliver more robust performance per watt and the open architecture supports Microsoft Windows including both standard and embedded platforms, along with Linux.
 
Lite-ray comes equipped with a 15” dual backlight, high resolution/high contrast anti-glare LCD, which can be adjusted to accommodate for various lighting conditions or employee heights. Its Resistive Touch Panel can even accommodate users when they must wear gloves.  The rear or customer-facing LCD enables dynamic POP (Point of Purchase) selling to help increase profits while saving counter space.
 
Backed by a three-year warranty, the new Lite-ray POS workstation is durable and reliable even in severe environments to withstand spills, static, dust, dirt, shock, grease, extreme temperatures and humidity.
 
Additionally any of the following options can further customize the POS solution:Optional second HDD with RAID 0, 1 support provides data protection and backup

And with the ability to purchase from almost any reseller, it’s easy to get up and running.”
