The FPC6120 is an industrial flat panel PC. The FPC6120 can be used for machine control, production lines, kiosks and information stations. The FPC6120 is preinstalled with an Intel® Atom™ CPU for
applications where more computing power is needed.
The FPC6120 supports a second monitor for presenting information to customers or extending the
display area. The second monitor can show different information to the main screen, or duplicate the
main screen content.
The FPC6120 can be installed in a rack, on a VESA clamp or in a custom enclosure with a hole of the
correct size.
The FPC6120 supports one 2.5" hard drive and a CompactFlash® disk for data and application
storage. CompactFlash® is most often used for thin-client applications, where only basic functions are
performed. A hard drive offers more storage space and is the better choice for a general use computer.

WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the maintenance of the FPC6120may
resultinpermanent damagetothe FPC6120 and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic compo-
nents, including the FPC6120. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It
is therefore critical that whenever the FPC6120 is accessed internally, or any other
electrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered
to.
-Wear an anti-static wristband: - Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can help to
prevent ESD from damaging the board.
-Self-grounding: - Before handling the board touch any grounded conducting ma
terial. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any conducting mate
rials that are connected to the ground.
-Use an anti-static pad: - When configuring the FPC6120, place it on an
antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the
FPC6120.
-Only handle the edges of the PCB: - When handling the PCB, hold the PCB
by the edges.
4.2 INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
When installing the flat panel PC, please follow the precautions listed below:
-Power turned off: When installing the flat panel PC, make sure the power is off.
Failing to turn off the power may cause severe injury to the body and/or damage
to the system.
-Certified Engineers: Only certified engineers should install and modify onboard
functionalities.
-Anti-static Discharge: If a user open the rear panel of the flat panel PC, to
configure the jumpers or plug in added peripheral devices, ground themselves
first and wear and anti-static wristband.

4.10 Jumper Settings
NOTE:
A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an electrical circuit. It consists of two or
three metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides
over the pins to connect them. To CLOSE/SHORT a jumper means connecting
the pins of the jumper with the plastic clip and to OPEN a jumper means removing the
plastic clip from a jumper.
The following jumpers can be found on the motherboard installed in the FPC6120.
Before the FPC6120 is installed, the jumpers must be set in accordance with the desired configuration. The jumpers on the FPC6120 motherboard are listed in Table 4-1.

WARNING!
When mounting the flat panel PC onto an arm, onto the wall or onto a panel, it is better
to have more than one person to help with the installation to make sure the flat panel
PC does not fall down and get damaged.
The four methods of mounting the flat panel PC are listed below.
Wall mounting
Panel mounting
Arm mounting
Rack mounting
The four mounting methods are described below.
4.10.1 Wall Mounting
To mount the FPC6120 flat panel PC onto a wall, please follow the steps below.
Step 1: Select the location on the wall for the wall-mounting bracket.
Step 2: Carefully mark the locations of the four bracket screw holes on the wall.
Step 3: Drill four pilot holes at the marked locations on the wall for the bracket reten-
tion screws.
Step 4: Align the wall-mounting bracket screw holes with the pilot holes.
Step 5: Secure the mounting-bracket to the wall by inserting the retention screws into
the four pilot holes and tightening them (Figure 4-20).
Step 6: Insert the four monitor mounting screws provided in the wall mounting kit into
the four screw holes on the real panel of the monitor and tighten until the screw shank
is secured against the rear panel (Figure 4-21).
661 Brea Canyon Rd., Suite 3

tel: 909.598.7388, fax: 909.598.0218
Step 1: Align the mounting screws on the monitor rear panel with the mounting holes
on the bracket.
Step 2: Carefully insert the screws through the holes and gently pull the monitor downwards until the monitor rests securely in the slotted holes (Figure 4-21). Ensure that all
four of the mounting screws fit snuggly into their respective slotted holes.
NOTE:
In the diagram below the bracket is already installed on the wall.
Step 3: Secure the panel PC with the wall-mounting kit. To do this, stick the protective
cushion to the wall-mounting kit first. Then, put the wall-mounting kit on the top panel of
the panel PC. Carefully mark the location of the wall-mounting kit screw holes on the
wall. Drill a pilot hole at the marked location on the wall. Secure the wall-mounting kit to
the wall by inserting a retention screw into the pilot hole on the wall (Figure 4-22). This
step is to avoid the panel PC being pushed apart from the wall-mounting bracket accidentally.

To mount the FPC6120 flat panel PC into a panel, please follow the steps below.
Step 1: Install the panel mounting kit onto the real panel (Figure 4-26).
Step 2: Select the position in the panel to mount the FPC6120.
Step 3: Cut out a section from the panel that corresponds to the dimensions of the flat
panel PC chassis. The panel section that is cut out must be smaller than the size of the
aluminum frame that surrounds the 12.1" TFT LCD panel but just large enough for the
chassis to fit through (Figure 4-27).
661 Brea Canyon Rd., Suite 3

tel: 909.598.7388, fax: 909.598.0218
Step 4: Slide the panel PC through the hole until the aluminum frame is flush against
the panel.
Step 5: Insert the panel mounting clamps into the pre-formed holes along the edges of
the chassis, behind the aluminum frame. There are a total of 8 panel mounting clamps.
Step 6: Tighten the screws that pass through the panel mounting clamps until the plastic caps at the front of all the screws are firmly secured to the panel (Figure 4-28).
4.10.3 Arm Mounting
The flat panel PC is VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) compliant and
can be mounted on an arm with a 100 mm interface pad. To mount the flat panel PC on
an arm, please follow the steps below.
Step 1: The arm is a separately purchased item. Please correctly mount the arm onto
the surface it uses as a base. To do this, refer to the installation documentation that
came with the mounting arm.
661 Brea Canyon Rd., Suite 3
Walnut, CA 91789
tel: 909.598.7388, fax: 909.598.0218
NOTE:
When purchasing the arm please ensure that it is VESA compliant and that the arm has
a 100 mm interface pad. If the mounting arm is not VESA compliant it cannot be used to
support the flat panel PC.
Step 2: Once the mounting arm has been firmly attached to the surface, lift the flat
panel PC onto the interface pad of the mounting arm.
Step 3: Align the retention screw holes on the mounting arm interface with those in the
flat panel PC. The flat panel PC arm mount retention screw holes are shown in Figure 4-
29.
Step 4: Secure the flat panel PC to the interface pad by inserting four retention screws
through the bottom of the mounting arm interface pad and into the
flat panel PC.
4.10.4 Cabinet and Rack Installation
The FPC6120 flat panel PC can be installed into a cabinet or rack. To do this, please
follow the steps below.
661 Brea Canyon Rd., Suite 3
Walnut, CA 91789
tel: 909.598.7388, fax: 909.598.0218
Step 1: The back of the aluminum frame surrounding the LCD screen has retention
screw holes (FPC6120 has 10 holes) for a cabinet/rack installation bracket.
NOTE:
When purchasing the cabinet/rack installation bracket make sure it is compatible with
both the flat panel PC and the rack/cabinet into which the panel PC is installed.
Step 2: Slide the rear chassis through the rack/cabinet bracket until the rear side of the
LCD screen frame is flush against the front of the bracket.
Step 3: Make sure the retention screw holes at the rear of the LCD screen are aligned
with the retention screw holes in the rack/cabinet bracket.
Step 4: Secure the rack/cabinet bracket to the FPC6120 flat panel PC by inserting the
