CHAPTER 2 System Setup This chapter details system setup on the PPC-V106 Panel PC.
Chapter 2 System Setup 2.1 A Quick Tour of the Panel PC Before you start to set up the panel PC, take a moment to become familiar with the locations and purposes of the controls, drives, connectors and ports, which are illustrated in the figures below. When you place the panel PC upright on the desktop, its front panel appears as shown in Figure 2-1 Figure 2.1: Front View of the Panel PC When you look at the right side of the panel PC, you will see the holes for mounting as shown in Fig. 2-2. Figure 2.
When you turn the Panel PC around and look at its rear cover, you will find VESA standard holes and others for mounting. There are no ventilation holes, as shown in Figure 2-3. Figure 2.3: Rear Side View of the Panel PC The I/O section is at the bottom of the panel PC, as shown in Fig. 2-4. 1 2 3 Figure 2.
2.2 Installation Procedures 2.2.1 Connecting the Power Cord There are two kinds of power supplies for the PPC-V106 series, AC and DC. For AC model : The Panel PC can only be powered by an AC electrical outlet (100 ~ 250 volts, 50 ~ 60 Hz). Be sure to always handle the power cords by holding plug ends only. Follow these procedures in order: 1. Connect the female end of the power cord to the AC inlet of the panel PC. 2. Connect the 3-pin male plug of the power cord to an electrical outlet.
2.3 Running the BIOS Setup Program Your panel PC is likely to have been properly set up and configured by your dealer prior to delivery. You may still find it necessary to use the panel PC's BIOS (Basic Input-Output System) setup program to change system configuration information, such as the current date and time or your type of hard drive. The setup program is stored in read-only memory (ROM).
2.4 Installing System Software Recent releases of operating systems from major vendors include setup programs which load automatically and guide you through hard disk preparation and operating system installation. The guidelines below will help you determine the steps necessary to install your operating system on the panel PC hard drive. Note: Some distributors and system integrators may have already pre-installed system software prior to shipment of your panel PC.
2.5 Installing the Drivers After installing your system software, you will be able to set up the Ethernet, SVGA, audio, and touchscreen functions. All the drivers except the CD-ROM drive driver are stored in a CD-ROM disc entitled "Drivers and Utilities." The CD-ROM drive driver is stored in a floppy disk. Both the CD-ROM and the floppy disk can be found in your accessory box.

CHAPTER 3 Hardware and Peripheral Installation This chapter details the installation of the PPC-V106 panel PC hardware. Sections include: • Overview of Hardware Installation and Upgrading • Installing the 2.
Chapter 3 Hardware and Peripheral Installation 3.1 Overview of Hardware Installation and Upgrading The panel PC consists of a PC-based computer that is housed in a ruggedized aluminum enclosure. Any maintenance or hardware upgrades can be completed after removing both panels.. Warning! Do not remove the ruggedized aluminum covers until you have verified that no power is flowing within the panel PC. Power must be switched off and the power cord must be unplugged.
2. Place the HDD inside the HDD bracket and tighten four screws (#1) from both sides of the HDD bracket. HDD (Bottom up) Pin 1 1 3. The HDD cable (1 x 44-pin to 1 x 44-pin) is next to the HDD bracket. Connect the HDD cable to the HDD. Make sure that the red wire corresponds to Pin 1 on the connector, which is labelled on the board. Plug the other end of the cable into the HDD, with Pin 1 on the cable corresponding to Pin 1 on the HDD. 3.
3.4 Installing the Universal Arm 1. Press latches at the same time and then rotate support-1 until you can see both of the screw holes. 2. Rotate support-2 until the angle is the same as support-1. 3. Use four M4x8L screws and attach the U-Arm with the PPC-V106. The 4 stainless screws can be found in the universal arm's box. 4. Use latches adjust the angle of PPC-V106 (every 14.4° on 360°). Note: Support-1 can be on the right or left.
CHAPTER 4 Jumper Settings and Connectors This chapter tells how to set up the panel PC hardware, including instructions on setting jumpers and connecting peripherals, switches and indicators. Be sure to read all the safety precautions before you begin the installation procedures.
Chapter 4 Jumper Settings and Connectors 4.1 Setting Jumpers You can configure your panel PC to match the needs of your application by setting jumpers. A jumper is the simplest kind of electrical switch. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To “close” a jumper, you connect the pins with the clip. To “open” a jumper you remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1, 2, and 3.
4.1.1 Jumpers and Switches The motherboard of the panel PC has a number of jumpers that allow you to configure your system to suit your applications. The table below lists the function of each of the boardís jumpers. Table 4.1: Jumpers and their functions Label Function JP1 CMOS clear for external RTC JP2 LCD power connector JP3 COM1 / COM2/ COM3 pin 9 output type setting JP4 COM1 / COM2/ COM3 pin 9 output type setting JP5 COM2 RS232/422/485 setting SW1 Panel type setting (Reserved) 4.1.
4.1.3 Connectors Onboard connectors link the panel PC to external devices such as hard disk drives or floppy drives. The table below lists the function of each of the board ís connectors. Table 4.
4.1.4 Locating Connectors Figure 4.2: Locating Connectors on the PPC-V106 Motherboard 4.2 CPU Installation The CPU is embedded on the motherboard, so there are no settings for frequency ratio or voltage.
4.3 CMOS Clear for External RTC (JP1) Warning: To avoid damaging the computer, always turn off the power supply before setting “Clear CMOS”. Set the jumper back to “Normal operation” before turning on the power supply. Table 4.3: Clear CMOS / External RTC (JP1) *Normal operation (default) 1 2 Clear CMOS 3 1 2 3 4.4 COM-port Interface The panel PC provides three serial ports: COM1, COM 3 : RS-232 and COM2: RS-232/422/485 (in one COM port connector). 4.4.
The IRQ and the address ranges for COM1, COM2, COM3 and COM4 are fixed. However, if you wish to disable the port or change these parameters later you can do this in the system BIOS setup. The table overleaf shows the default settings for the panel PC’s serial ports. COM1 and COM2 are one set. You can exchange the address range and interrupt IRQ of COM1 for the address range and interrupt IRQ of COM2. After exchanging: COM1's address range is 2F8 ~ 2FF and its request IRQ is IRQ3.
4.4.2 COM1/COM2/COM3/ Pin 9 Output Setting (JP4) Table 4.6: COM1/2/3 Pin 9 Output Setting(JP4) Normal (default) 11 9 7 5 3 1 12 10 8 6 4 2 11 9 7 5 3 1 12 10 8 6 4 2 11 9 7 5 3 1 12 10 8 6 4 2 +5 V output +12 V output NOTE: Pins 1, 3 and 5 are for COM1 Pins 2, 4 and 6 are for COM2 Pins 7, 9 and 11 are for COM3 When enabling this function, you should remove a jumper from JP3 as shown in table 4.7.
Table 4.7: JP3 Setting Normal (default) Remove jumper from pin 1 and 2 to make pin 9 on COM1 a power output. Remove jumper from pin 3 and 4 to make pin 9 on COM2 a power output. Remove jumper from pin 5 and 6 to make pin 9 on COM3 a power output.
4.5 VGA Interface The panel PC's AGP VGA interface can drive conventional CRT displays. It is also capable of driving a wide range of flat panel displays, including electroluminescent (EL), gas plasma, passive LCD and active LCD displays. The board has two connectors to support these displays simultaneously: one for standard CRT VGA monitors, and one for flat panel displays. Pin assignments for the flat panel display connector, backlight connector and other related connectors are shown in Appendix C. 4.5.
