Multiple Monitor Configurations to Suit Multiple Applications
No matter what configuration you’re looking for in an LCD monitor, chances are good that we’ve got you covered. From a simple panel mount display to an all-in-one package of LCD, keyboard and pointing device, General Digital will accommodate your commercial and light industrial needs. Contact us to discuss how we may accommodate your monitor needs.
Select a commercial-grade monitor below that will best suit your needs. Mousing over the product name provides a brief description, and clicking on the link takes you down the page for detailed information.

Economical low profile rack mount flip-up LCD monitor with integral keyboard and pointing device

Economical low profile rack mount flip-up LCD monitor with an aluminum mounting frame and bezel
Lightweight Yet Durable Construction
Sometimes, your needs or your budget dictate a simpler approach. Though our commercial-grade LCD monitors are low priced, you can rest assured that quality is not compromised. The Stowaway, RackMate and PanelPal use lightweight high-grade plastic enclosures with aluminum mounting frames and bezels. The SlimLine Commercial uses aluminum only (17.3″ model) or a combination of aluminum and steel (all other models) in their 1U and 2U high enclosures.
High Performance Flat Screens and Components
Even though these monitors are commercial grade, General Digital insists on using the latest designs in LCD display technology, with sizes ranging from 15″ to 20″. We also incorporate high-grade LCD controllers for optimum performance.
Options and Accessories for Commercial-Grade LCD Monitors
Seeing as how these monitors were designed for mass production and low cost, we offer a limited, yet useful, selection of options and accessories.
SLIMLINE COMMERCIAL
The SlimLine Commercial Series LCD monitor, keyboard, pointing device (touch pad or trackball) is the budget-conscious complement to General Digital’s other innovative, rack mount flip-up display-keyboard products.
Optimized for its ultra-low profile, the SlimLine Commercial is designed to save valuable rack space and expense by providing a reliable and user-friendly operator interface. The monitor’s compact design and industrial durability make it the ideal rack mount solution for network administration, telecommunications, mobile applications (transit case), and more.

Optical Characterization Services (2:16)
Unlike your phone, a display’s position cannot easily be adjusted to increase readability in direct sunlight. General Digital’s Optical Characterization Services take the guesswork out of quantifying how your display will perform under sunlight conditions. The following video explains the process in detail.

Overview
Key Features
- Vibrant LCD screens in 15.0″ and 19.0″ sizes
- Support for high resolutions up to 1280 x 1024 pixels
- Display head is factory configured to flip up or flip down
- Economical plastic enclosure and metal rack mount mounting kit
- Optional support for DVI-A, DVI-D and DVI-I analog, digital and integrated video
- Ideal for commercial and light industrial 19″ rack applications
Durable Monitors for an Active Workforce
AM-TFT LCD Screens
General Digital integrates the latest advances in LCD display technology including 15″ and 19″ (diagonal viewing area) panels. The active matrix TFT LCD screens offer up to 16.7 million colors, wide viewing angles and fast response times (suitable for live video).
High Performance Video Controller
All standard Stowaway rack mount LCD monitors support non-interlaced analog video (Separate sync).
Features include Auto Setup, Horizontal/Vertical Positioning, Phase and Fine Tune Adjustments, Color Control, Multiple Languages, and Image Expansion (not all models).
Metal/Plastic Construction
The unique design of the Stowaway flip-up/flip-down rack drawer LCD monitor results in an enclosure that occupies only two vertical rack units (3.50″) when stowed.
When deployed and set in operating position, the monitor extends only 4.375″ to 6.375″ from the rack mount chassis. This feature increases operator workspace, especially important in space-constrained environments. The slide can be factory configured for the desired extension distance.
All of the interfaces (video, power) utilize locking connectors that are located on the bottom of the enclosure. A strain relief ensures that cables do not bind as the monitor is stowed or deployed.
The Stowaway’s display and electronics are housed in a durable, black plastic enclosure ideal for commercial and light industrial applications. You benefit from a reduced cost of materials and lead time.
The mounting bracket and bezel are constructed from lightweight aluminum, providing a durable assembly. The standard bezel is finished with a resilient black powder coat, although other colors may be available on a custom basis.
Hinged Slides
Custom designed slides allow the Stowaway to conveniently slide in and out of a 19″ RETMA rack while occupying only 2U of rack space. The slides also allow the display head to pivot up 90 degrees for optimal operation.
The Stowaway requires no assembly or disassembly to operate – simply slide the drawer out of the rack, pivot 90° on the robust hinges and commence operation.
Keyboards and Ergonomics
The low profile enclosure occupies minimal vertical rack space, and pivots 90° for operation (factory configured to flip up or flip down). This allows the device to be easily located at eye level within your 19″ RETMA rack to optimize ergonomics.
General Digital also supports a diverse product offering of commercial-, industrial- and military-grade rack mount drawer keyboard/pointing devices (KPDs) to complement the Stowaway. These KPDs can also be located within the rack to optimize ergonomics. Additionally, the KPD can be stowed out of the operator’s way while the monitor is still deployed.
Options & Accessories
The Stowaway has been optimized for mass production and cost efficiency. As a consequence, the design does not offer the same level of flexibility as its sister products, the Rack Mount Hinge and SlimLine Micro. However, General Digital can still offer some limited customization to the design. Please speak with a Sales Engineer for additional information.

Build & Configure
In order to reduce both cost and lead time, General Digital modifies high volume LCD monitors intended for the desktop market and integrates the assembly into our final product configuration. Unlike the Rack Mount Hinge and SlimLine Micro (whose components have multiple sources of supply), the Stowaway is affected by the life cycle of a single commodity product, which is typically 18–30 months. Although it is possible that the commodity monitor will be replaced with a “like or equivalent” model, it is completely subject to market availability and popularity.
