HYPERACTIVE TECHNOLOGIES® ACHIEVES RETLIF CERTIFICATION,
SETS INDUSTRY PERFORMANCE STANDARD FOR OCD WITH HYPERVIEW® PE
Proves Power over Ethernet Technology Ideal for Temperature, Weather Extremes
PITTSBURGH – May 7, 2013 — HyperActive Technologies,® the world’s leading technology company for
the Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) industry, today announces its HyperView® PE order confirmation
display (OCD) using Power over Ethernet technology received certification from Retlif Testing
Laboratories for operation in extreme temperature ranges and harsh climates.
Retlif is one of the world’s leading independent testing laboratories and is fully accredited to ISOSTD-17025. The firm maintains such listings as, “FCC recognized,” “VCCI listed,” and “EU CAB
designated,” all to insure global acceptance of test data.
According to Retlif (Report Number R-14693), HyperView PE successfully complied with all
specifications when subjected to extreme temperature testing, including:
 Operating flawlessly from a -40F cold start (power “off”)
 All systems continued to be stable and operational over the temperature range of -40ºF to
+185ºF after application of power
 Clear and undistorted display for all test images over the entire temperature range of -40 ºF
to +185 ºF
HyperView PE supplies power, video and data over a single CAT5e cable, saving operators money by
reducing electrical installation costs and extending the lifetime of the OCD by eliminating common
breakpoints in the unit. HyperView PE also features the industry’s lowest cost of ownership.

Reshaping the Drive-Thru Experience. Again
HyperView PE represents another industry innovation from HyperActive Technologies that is rapidly
reshaping the way restaurant brands improve the drive-thru experience for customers.
“The leading quick-service restaurants in the country look to us because we continue to set the bar
on technological solutions that improve operational excellence,” said Joe Porfeli, CEO, HyperActive
Technologies. “Our rapid growth is a testament to the confidence brands and franchisees have in our
commitment to helping them achieve higher throughput and enhanced profitability.”
In addition to its excellent extreme weather durability, HyperView PE’s bonded cover glass provides
superior visual quality by dramatically increasing contrast in high ambient light situations. Bonding the
cover glass to the LCD removes the internal reflections from the inside surface of the cover glass and the
surface of the LCD. In addition, the cover glass is also chemically treated to reduce reflection, further
enhancing visual quality during hours of direct sunlight. This combination of extreme environmental
durability and unmatched visual quality delivers best of breed solution for order confirmation displays
today.
HyperView PE’s technological advancements include:
 Power over Ethernet via a single CAT5e cable – further eliminating heat, extending unit
life, and ultimately delivering the lowest cost of ownership on the market
 Reduction or elimination of electrical installation costs because there is no need to run
120v power to the OCD post
 Video and diagnostic information is also transmitted over the same cable
 Providing an advanced technology that has eluded many OCD manufacturers: the use of
LED lighting, which minimizes output and heat
 Unit backlight rated at 100,000 hours of consistent performance
 Optically bonded cover glass provides superior visual quality – reducing glare and
reflection to further enhance viewing during hours of direct sunlight
Setting a New Mark
In addition to HyperView® PE, which launched in 2012, HyperActive Technologies also recently
deployed DriveTime Cloud®, the industry’s most advanced drive-thru management system, which
provides and stores data via cloud computing for less than half the price compared to other drive-thru
technologies. The original HyperView® OCD and the QTimer® drive-thru management system round out
the company’s technologies for QSRs.
The company’s products helped HyperActive Technologies mark a 57 percent growth in orders for
the first quarter 2013 over first quarter 2012, primarily propelled by the rapid use of the HyperView® PE
OCD, and DriveTime® Cloud drive-thru management system.

The DriveTime Cloud drive-thru management system is helping operators achieve success through a
variety of technological benefits:
 Leverages computing power and data storage from the Internet (i.e., cloud computing
technology), instead of relying on on-site CPU power
 Operators can access application software and data stored at remote locations
 Provides improved manageability and requires less hardware maintenance
 Gives IT managers at the QSR corporate or franchise level the ability to rapidly meet
fluctuating drive-thru demand
 Provides both single store and enterprise-wide reports, making it the industry’s most
affordable drive-thru management system
“By using HyperView PE and DriveTime Cloud, restaurateurs understand how our products can
positively impact customer service, guest loyalty and profitability at the drive-thru window,” said Dan
Villas, Vice President, Sales, HyperActive Technologies. “With the Retlif announcement, operators that
have already installed HyperView PE are getting further validation that their decision to do so was
correct.”
According to Villas, HyperActive Technologies provides the industry’s leading five-year extended
warranty with advanced exchange. If the need arises, parts and replacement products are available
within a few days. Comprehensive product advancements are provided as part of an annual support and
maintenance program, and equipment leasing and special financing options are also available.
“Our technology solutions are changing the face of the industry by giving brands and franchisees
the tools they need to be successful in today’s market at an investment level that helps them achieve
their goals,” said Porfeli.
