The kits includes AMOS-3005 system, a 12V/5A AC-to-DC adapter with a 2-pole phoenix plug to DC jack, screw packs for mounting and Mini PCI-e card, washer rubbers pack, thermal pad for the mSATA module, and a syringe with thermal grease. The computer also supports Wall/DIN rail/VESA mounting system. Memory and storage are not included, which means you’ll also need to install your own operating systems, which can be Windows 10/8.1/8/7, WES 7, or Linux distributions.
The computer targets industrial automation, remote terminal and data collection, as well as in-vehicle computing applications. The barebone system is not quite cheap, but it’s expected for an industrial & automotive PC, as it sells without storage nor memory for $539 on VIA Embedded Store. More details, including the user’s manual and Windows drivers, can be found on AMOS-3005 product page.
