Features

ARM based System
With Arm Cortex®-A72 + Cortex®-A53 platform is a powerful Android/ Linux-based solution, offering high performance processing optimized for the lowest power consumption.

Panel Display
Provides optional 13.3 / 15.6 / 21.5 inch panel, each one has resolution 1920×1080 with optional PCAP Touch 10-Point multi-touch.

The Operating Temperature
FESxxxE2-R39 Provide a wide range from 0°C up to 70°C for Commercial environment, FESxxxE2-K39 Provide a wide range from -20°C up to 80°C for Industrial environment, suitable for critical environment applications.
**Note: The Operating Temperature is a result of the test performed in experimental chamber. It is highly suggested to execute a solid testing under actually application environment.

Storage Expansion
The Micro SD/SDHC card slot enables the FESxxx-RK39 to have a flexible storage up to 32GB size.
**Note: More frequent and larger data access on eMMC memory makes the eMMC lifespan shorter. Therefore, it is highly recommended to use a Micro SD card for large data access.

Networking Option
The FESxxx-RK39 equips with RJ-45 port that supports high-speed Gigabit Ethernet. And a 2.4G/5Ghz, Wifi(WLAN): IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac 2×2 MIMO standard with SDIO interface on board.

Power over Ethernet option
The optional 802.3at PoE+ module is Powered Device (PD) controller and switching regulator for high power IEEE 802.3at and 802.3af applications. The PoE+ module can output 25W of power. The FESxxx-RK39 can be operated using either PoE+ or external adaptors (12V).

Android Programming Guide

ADB installation
Originally, the USB3.0 was defaulted as host mode. Before use function ADB, the USB 3.0 Port have to be set to device mode by following steps.

Step1. Scroll to “Settings > About Tablet”

Step2. From “Settings” select “About tablet” to enter the dialog, and then click  “Build number” in the dialog as shown. Android will pop up a countdown message. Keep clicking it until zero for Android to authorize the user to be a Developer.  ****

Step3. After finished above action, a new item “Developer Options” will appear in the system block. Step4. Get into the new item “Developer Options” and turn on the USB  debugging function.  Note: Please do not change the others that you do not understand what it does.

Step5. Scroll to “Settings > USB”

  • Then Scroll to “USB > ADB/HOST”

  • Set USB3.0 as ADB
