CPi-J070WR (7" Embedded Linux Touch Panel PC)

The CPi-J070WR (jPC) is an ARM-based industrial panel PC designed as a modern successor to Windows CE–based CUWIN products.

It preserves the familiar .NET development experience while moving to a more capable embedded Linux platform.

Applications can be developed using modern Microsoft tools such as Visual Studio, C#, .NET, and WinForms, then deployed to the panel PC with minimal code changes.

Because ARM Linux is an officially supported .NET target platform, developers can use the full modern .NET SDK, runtime, and libraries instead of a limited compact framework.

In addition, the CPi-J070WR provides a full-featured operating system with a modern web browser, web server, remote desktop, SSH, and other network services.

Compact, reliable, and easy to program, the CPi-J070WR brings modern Linux capability and .NET productivity to industrial HMI applications.

FAQ

Q: Is jPC a different product line from ComfilePi?

A: Yes.

Although both are industrial panel PCs, they were designed for different purposes.

ComfilePi is based on the Raspberry Pi platform and ecosystem. jPC is based on Comfile Technology's customized Embedded Linux platform and was developed specifically for industrial applications.

Q: Why does jPC use Linux?

A: jPC was developed as the successor to the Windows CE-based CUWIN series.

Windows CE has reached the end of its lifecycle and is no longer suitable for new projects. Linux provides a modern, actively maintained platform with long-term support and a rich software ecosystem.

The goal of jPC is to preserve the familiar .NET development experience while moving to a modern operating system.

Q: Why not simply use ComfilePi?

A: ComfilePi is an excellent solution for many applications. However, it is designed to remain compatible with the Raspberry Pi ecosystem.

jPC takes a different approach. Its Embedded Linux operating system has been customized and optimized by Comfile Technology for industrial environments.

Features include improved resilience against unexpected power loss, support for real-time operation, optimized .NET integration, and long-term platform stability.

Q: Does jPC support .NET development?

A: Yes.

Applications can be developed using Visual Studio, C#, .NET, and WinForms on a Windows PC and then deployed to jPC with minimal code changes.

Because Linux is an officially supported .NET platform, developers can use the same modern .NET SDK, runtime, and libraries on both the development PC and the target device.

Q: Which product should I choose?

A: If you want maximum compatibility with the Raspberry Pi ecosystem, choose ComfilePi.

If you prefer a dedicated industrial platform optimized for long-term deployment and modern .NET application development, choose jPC.
