Wallaby Pro Self-Service Stands

What the Wallaby Pro stand does for a self-service point

The Elo Wallaby Pro is a stand system for self-service kiosks rather than a screen on its own. It holds a 22-inch, 24-inch or 27-inch touchscreen in portrait orientation and provides a housing for the compute device, so a check-in desk, ordering point or information kiosk can be built from one matching unit. Displays and compute devices are sold separately, while the power strip and power bricks come with the stand.

The hardware choice stays with the buyer. You can use the 22-inch I-Series all-in-one with Android or Windows, or pair a 2402L, 2702L, or medical-grade 2403LM or 2703LM monitor with a compute device such as the Backpack 4, the ECMG4, an Intel NUC or a third-party PC within the listed size limits.

Choosing a configuration for the space

Four configurations cover most layouts. The countertop stand (E989127) measures 738 mm x 300 mm x 277 mm and weighs 18.50 kg unpackaged, which suits a pharmacy counter, till point or reception desk. The floor stand, built from a floor stand top (E989314) and base (E989512), measures 1448 mm x 480 mm x 450 mm and weighs 42.90 kg, so it suits a lobby or queue area. A double-sided floor stand adds a second screen face for customers approaching from two directions. The wall-mounted version pairs the countertop stand with the wall mount kit (E990079) to free up counter space.

Connecting accessories and printers

• EMV card terminal cradles for Verifone, Ingenico, MagTek and Square devices
• Edge Connect barcode scanner, magnetic stripe reader, status light, camera, fingerprint scanner and RFID options
• Thermal printers from Epson, Star and Bixolon, with four paper chutes in the box

Where it fits in Qatar

In a shopping mall in West Bay, a floor stand in the entrance lobby can run a store finder or queue display, with the screen kept out of direct sun from glazed frontages. In a clinic in Al Sadd, a countertop unit at reception can handle patient check-in, and the 2403LM and 2703LM medical-grade monitors are listed as compatible options. At a university in Education City, a double-sided floor stand can guide visitors and students who arrive from two approaches. Set the interface language for English and Arabic users before the stand goes live.

Planning the installation and the heat

The operating range is 0°C to 40°C with 20% to 80% humidity, and the ECMG4 compute device narrows the range to 0°C to 35°C. Summer temperatures outside in Doha can exceed 45°C, so place the stand in air-conditioned indoor space away from direct sun. Measure the floor stand footprint and ceiling height before ordering, and check the 3303 mm ceiling pole kit if it is used. The countertop unit weighs 18.50 kg and the floor stand 42.90 kg, so plan for two people to lift and position them. The backer board kits measure 1250 mm x 300 mm.

Send your floor plan, chosen display and compute device to the SmartRooms Qatar team and request a quote. A free site survey can confirm the footprint, power points and fixing method before installation in any of Qatar's eight municipalities. The stand carries the manufacturer's 2-year warranty.
