LONG BEACH, Miss. -- In anticipation of stricter ADA regulations, Triton configured its newest ATM, the 9700 Series, with an optional audio port for the visually impaired and the ability to perform private audio transactions using text-to-speech synthesis.
The machine, which will be introduced this week at Thomson Financial's 6th Annual ATM Conference in New Orleans, was developed in consultation with members of the disabled community and is compliant with existing and proposed Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) regulations.
Compared to the previous generation products, the Triton 9700 also features a shorter cabinet, a brighter LCD transaction screen with a wider viewing angle and a redesigned keypad for easier use.
According to a Triton news release, the 9700 Series is Triton Connect compatible to allow remote terminal monitoring, as well as downloading of graphics for transaction screen advertising and receipt printing. It also incorporates as standard many features available only as options on previous generation ATMs, including four extra built-in serial ports for easy in-the-field expansion, two megabyte memory expansion module and a 256-color transaction screen that supports both text and graphics.
The product is positioned to be similar in price to Triton's 9600 Series of machines.
