The Artista M4 features an in-house developed baseboard along with the Raspberry Pi Compute Module CM4, that comes equipped with a 64-bit quad processor and fast LPDDR4 memory making it suitable for info terminals and 4K applications in medical technology or building management.
The Artista M4 can be connected to almost any TFT display using a V-by-One interface and PCAP touchscreens. For rapid data transfer to the network, Gigabit Ethernet is integrated as standard. In addition, radio modules can be connected via a convenient M.2 interface for wireless data transmission - dual band WLAN 5, Bluetooth 5.0 are available options here along with either internal or external antennae configurations.
External sources, such as an X86 PC, can be, connected via HDMI-in, so that either the content of the integrated Raspberry Pi or that of the external source can be shown on the connected display.
The Audio and Camera Interface (CSI) is intended for conference rooms, allowing sound and image transmission. Soon to be released, the Artista IO module will provide an expansion board that offers CAN and RS232 or RS485 in addition to freely programmable digital inputs and outputs - making it simpler to implement PLC applications with CODESYS.
Raspberry Pi OS comes pre-installed, allowing users to customise their own applications. DISTEC additionally provides a variety of operating systems and software tailored for optimal usage in various scenarios such as human-machine interfaces, conference rooms, info monitors at public areas or large websites on full display mode.
With a guarantee of long-term availability for at least 6 years, the Artista M4 will be able to provide project-specific adaptations and system solutions efficiently - an eDP display version is currently at the development stage.
