Description
Overview
The Böning AHD 1215 M is a 15-inch panel PC with a matte glass front and touchscreen for vessel visualisation. Its integrated computer combines the viewing and operating functions in one unit.
Display and visibility
Automatic dimming adapts the screen to changing ambient light and reduces glare at night. Display brightness is up to 1600 cd/m². The display arrangement is intended to maintain readable vessel information in bright bridge conditions. Increased brightness and contrast support the described readability improvement. Capacitive touch operation avoids the visible sensor-thread pattern described for other touch technologies. The matte glass surface reduces reflections.
Marine installation
Automotive-grade components support the wider operating-temperature range described for this model series. Passive cooling and the absence of moving fans or mechanical drives support shock-resistant marine operation. The unit is intended for a 24 V DC vessel supply. Its all-in-one construction reduces installation space and effort, with integration into existing systems supported by the intended configuration.
Key features
- Dedicated brightness controls.
- Front keys for alarm acknowledgement.
- Self-contained visualisation on a closed operating system, designed to prevent accidental configuration changes.

Cybersecurity and system architecture
The self-contained visualisation runs on a closed operating system. In this Böning system configuration, no additional firewall or antivirus software is required, and the configuration cannot be changed accidentally.
