This two-line serial port pole display from Logic Controls is the original and still very popular. Some customers want to stick with this unit because of its reliability. The latest pole display model manufactured by Logic Controls is the LD9000 series. If this is the first pole display you are buying, you should buy the
LD9000. TouchPOS still offers the PD3000 because of its popularity with established vendors who may not want to change something that has worked in the past. The 20 character per row, 9.5mm character height, two row dot matrix display has a 300,000 hour MTBF. The unit comes with user-definable characters, and a built-in real-time clock. Like all Logic Controls units, the PD3000 comes with a wide variety of interfaces, can emulate many popular command sets, and has better visibility due to an optically matched lens and wider character pitch. Priced starting at under $170, including serial cable, this free-standing pole comes in two colors and can also be purchased with USB, parallel, or pass through cabling. Supports OPOS and can be adapted to other communication protocols.
Note: if your business needs a larger display, for instance, a bar setting where the pole display is located further from the customer, you may want to purchase the
PD6000 instead.
