Optical Bonding Services
In 2008, Insync developed the optical bonding technology based on our own proprietary formula. Since
then we have delivered bonded monitors to U.S. Navy and industrial marine and kiosk display products.
Subsequently during 2008, we have delivered over 15,000 units of 19” optically bonded monitors for
gasoline pumps in the U.S. and overseas and with negligible field returns. We are proud of our product
reliability. We are continuing providing this service to our customers. Usually, we provide the antireflective (AR) glass or touch screen and do the optical bonding and the customers provide the LCD
panels. Display sizes are ranging from 3.5” to 55”. Standard turn-around time is one week.

Product Features:
1. Sunlight Readable 19” Monitor with RS-232 for Remote Control, Diagnostic and
System Reboot via internet specifically designed for gasoline station, kiosk or
related applications
Insync has recently developed a new model 19” sunlight readable monitor, specifically designed for
gasoline station with RS-232 for remote control, diagnostic and system reboot remotely via internet.
This remote control, diagnostic and system reboot features will drastically reduce display
management cost for state wide and global site operation while control the displays in your home
office. Here are the parameters.
● 19” wide screen 1440 x 900 resolution
● Brightness: 850 nits with optical bonding for sunlight readability
● LED backlight for long life (can extend up to 11 years)
● +12V/+5V computer Input power LED backlight driver
(optional +120VAC input)
● Video Board with RS-232
● Perform OSD function, diagnostic function and system reboot when freezes remotely.
a. OSD Function: This means you can turn the backlight on and off
and do dimming remotely.
b. Monitor Diagnostic: Monitor diagnostic consists of detection of
Vsync signal and LED backlight lamp current remotely.
c. Via watchdog function to detect system when freezes by rebooting the system remotely.
Summary: Using RS-232 features, you can control your monitor remotely via internet whether the
monitor is in Melbourne or New York. You can dim the backlight when the sun goes down and turn off
the backlight at midnight to extend life of the backlight. If you can shut off the backlight 8 hours and dim
the backlight for another 8 hours, you can nearly double the backlight life to 11 years, WOW!
The diagnostic function can detect whether the display images are on or off by knowing the presence of
the video Vsync signal and the display brightness of 850 nits by making sure the backlight current is
flowing. Detect system freezes and reboot it remotely.
We think these features will greatly reduce display management cost, especially when gasoline station
goes state wide and global.

Assign monitor ID automatically by default as a function of monitor
location. Whichever the monitor gets the RS-232 (D-sub) is Monitor #1
or ID01; the one gets the telephone line is Monitor #2 or ID 02
automatically.
Set COMMAND to ID 00 will broadcast to two monitors, Monitor #1 and
monitor #2.
Broadcast Command, ID00 can do Auto Control to control both monitors
(ID01 and ID02) using RS232 command set.
For Auto OSD function, make Auto phase adj, Auto Clock adj, Auto Color
Temperature adj, Brightness adj, Contrast adj to default values
(customer pre-set or factory pre-set). Auto shouldn’t adapt to video
content.
Broadcast Command, ID00 can do all OSD functions including Brightness
Control, Contrast Control, Backlight Power and others for both monitors
as well.
To control individual monitor, one has to use Command ID01 or ID02
using RS232.
Watchdog Reset pulse is to reboot the PC if PC freezes and monitor 01
or monitor 2 does not receive acknowledgement signal from the PC.
The watchdog feature will be terminated after three reset pulses send
to PC reboot the system unsuccessfully.
MONITOR #2

RS-232 BENEFITS:

4.
All monitors become interchangeable.
Eliminate to assign ID to all monitors in
production. We can make all of them
ID01, then the automatic ID assignment
feature will make a monitor either ID01
or ID02 depends on connection.
Same monitor uses in all locations, ease
installation and field services issues of
ID identification problem. No need to
identify ID 01 or ID 02
During production to set display
parameters, such as brightness, use
broadcast feature of a single Command
to set all operation parameters.
Sunlight readable 8.4” Touch monitor/PC system with contactless
card reader for gasoline stations.
2.
This sunlight readable 8.4” touch monitor/PC will be rugged display to be retrofitted in dispenser of
gasoline stations, such as models like Advantage and Encore.
In a gasoline station island, there will be two 8.4” touch monitors. Because they are used in Self Service
operation, it is preferred to have two separate computers instead of a single computer to drive two
separate monitors to reduce software complexity. This way it becomes two separate systems, each
computer will be interfaced with one touch monitor and its controller via USB port. This is shown in the
Figure #1 Block Diagram below labeled as #1 and set #2, each set consists of one computer, one card
reader and one 8.4” touch monitor, and two stereo speakers. See respective component specifications
below for detail.
In addition for reference, shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, are the front view and rear view of an Encore
500 model. In the photos, they show how the positioning of each of the components. It also shows the
touch monitor and card reader requiring front surface waterproof. The computer does not require,
however.

OPTION #1
The cost is based on the following assumptions.
1. Only front surface of touch monitor and card reader require front surface water proof.
2. The components may not require ALEX since they are 4 feet above ground.
3. Complete and approval of two prototype systems, prior to volume production.
One set consists of one computer, one card reader and on 8.4” touch monitor and two speakers.
OPTION #2
Insync can design a waterproof front bezel IP/65 installed with all the components. This makes a
standalone unit for ease pump installation. See drawing Figure #2. This requires detail dimensions from
the client.
