TOUCHSTAR INFORMATION SYSTEMS OVERVIEW
Citadel’s TouchStar Information Systems are PC-compatible
computers ruggedized to withstand the physical shock, vibra-
tion and temperature extremes of harsh industrial or commer-
cial environments. All TouchStar systems provide a touchscreen,
10.4" display (either electroluminescent or LCD) multiple
network options and full I/O capability. Each TouchStar system

TS9000
The TS9000 is designed for fixed-mount applications. It is
powered by a standard 110VAC outlet via a plug-in power
supply. It is hard-wired into the local area network (LAN).
Standard Ethernet or Token Ring hard-wired LAN connections
are supported. The TS9000 can also be equipped with wireless
(RF) network communications and used in fixed-mount applica-
tions where the installation of a hard-wired LAN is not practical
or cost-effective.
