Small Business Size Standard: 750 employees. Edwards AFB CA has a requirement for Active Matrix Touchscreen quantity of 2 each. Minimum salient characteristics for a 4 X 8 inch active touch screen display. It shall be used as a remote entry device to control an instrumentation control unit (ICU) which is a computer system used to control the instrumentation system on the B-1B. This unit must be software and hardware compatible, fit, form and function with the existing touch screen display. Active Area: 4 X 8 inches. Resolution: 512 X 256 Pixels, landscape or portrait. Computer Interface: RS-422. Input Power: 28 VDC, 40 Watts maximum. EMI: Must be tested IAW MIL-STD-461. Touch Screen Type: Infrared touch bezel system. Communication: Unit must be able to operate in TERMINAL Mode or COMMAND mode. The control character ESC (1B hex) shall cause the display software to switch from TERMINAL to COMMAND mode. The first byte of data after the ESC will indicate the command to be executed. The data received after the command byte will be the parameters or that command. Following is a minimal list of core commands. They are split into four functional groups: DISPLAY: Clear mode, Complement mode, Jam mode, Set mode, Clear Bitmap, Display idle, Display switch, Screen copy, Scroll down, and Scroll up. UTILITY: Bright/Dim key control, Brightness down, Brightness up, Brightness change, Screen saver control, Serial port control, Status message control, Terminal mode control, Echo string, Test, and Touch panel control.
