Compatible programming software
Full HD on 15.6 inches at the entry price of the large-format class: the Kinco F2156E delivers 1920 × 1080 pixels in a metal housing just 26 mm deep — for plants that need to show a lot of information at once and manage with one network port.
🏭 Typical applications
Control station with high information demand: Full HD shows the overview, alarm list and trend chart in parallel — the operator does not have to jump between views.
Glove operation in large format: resistive touch at 15.6 inches — a combination that does not exist with capacitive panels.
Shallow installation: 26 mm mounting depth is the shallowest figure in the whole F2 series. It fits doors where a 49 mm device would not.
Price entry into 15.6 inches: the most affordable Full HD device in the series — if you do not need network separation, this is the lowest cost per pixel.
🖥️ Display and performance
1920 × 1080 pixels is 2.07 megapixels — more than three times an 1024 × 600 panel. On 15.6 inches that means several process windows, an alarm list and a trend curve visible at the same time, without switching. Viewing angle stability is 89° horizontally and 85° vertically. At 250 cd/m² the panel is designed for indoor use.
Resolution: 1920 × 1080 pixels (Full HD, 16:9)
Brightness: 250 cd/m² | Contrast: 800:1 | Viewing angle: 89° / 89° / 85° / 85°
Touch: 4-wire resistive, 4H surface hardness
CPU: Quad-Core ARM 1,8 GHz
Memory: 1 GB RAM + 8 GB eMMC flash
Real-time clock: built in, NTP-synchronisable
🧤 Resistive touch: for gloves and damp environments
The 4-wire resistive touch responds to mechanical pressure. It works with safety gloves, with wet fingers and with any stylus — exactly where capacitive panels give up.
💡 No multi-touch, no swipe gestures. If you need pinch-to-zoom in trend charts, choose Kinco F2156E2-PX (kapazitiv, 2 × Ethernet).
🔌 Interfaces and connectivity
Ethernet: 1 × 10/100 Mbit/s, RJ45
