Overview
VIA ARTiGO A1300 Small Form Factor PC
The VIA ARTiGO A1300 is a robust ultra-compact fanless quad-core system with rich connectivity and networking features designed for a wide range of mission-critical signage, kiosk, menu board, HMI, and other IoT applications.
Hardware
The VIA ARTiGO A1300 leverages the advanced performance and rich multimedia capabilities of the 1.0GHz VIA QuadCore E-Series processor and VIA VX11PH media system processor to create stunning visual effects for single and dual-screen signage displays. In addition to being able to play two 1080p videos or four 720p videos at the same time, the system integrates the VIA C-640 graphics processor to support Full HD DirectX 11 graphics resolutions through its two HDMI ports. Each HDMI display can operate independently, enabling multimedia content to be displayed at different resolutions, pixel depths, and refresh rates.
The system integrates a rich set of I/O features, including two USB 3.0 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, two HDMI ports, one Gigabit Ethernet port, one DIO port for 8-bit GPIO connections, and one COM port. Onboard I/O includes one mSATA connector, one SATA connector, one SIM card slot, and one miniPCIe slot supporting a choice of optional mobile broadband modules for high-speed wireless networking capabilities.
Software
The VIA ARTiGO A1300 is fully compatible with Microsoft® Windows 8, Windows® 7, Windows® Embedded 7, and popular Linux distributions. Customers can take advantage of VIA’s industry leading hardware and software support, including our software solution packs and the VIA Smart ETK (Embedded Tool Kit) to create customized designs with a quick time to market.
The VIA Smart ETK provides an application programming interface (API) that makes it easy for system developers using VIA Embedded platforms to control and monitor GPIO, Watchdog Timer, Hardware Management, Flash, and other functions.
Wake On LAN (WOL) and pre-boot execution environment (PXE) are also supported, allowing the creation of a host of remotely managed IoT devices for almost any environment.
Applications
With its rich multimedia capabilities in a compact fanless design, the VIA ARTiGO A1300 is an ideal professional-grade media player for dual-display signage applications which require 24/7 operation. Customers have the option of bundling VIA MagicView®, a powerful and flexible content management platform for designing, distributing and displaying digital signage content, for specific projects. With its advanced functions such as schedule management, client monitoring, reporting and secure network, VIA MagicView® makes it easy to freely arrange content across the system’s screens to deliver the maximum impact in a diverse range of environments such as hospitality, retail, entertainment, restaurants, and a host of other public spaces.
