CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
1. 1 OVERVIEW
The fanless panel PCs are all-in-one panel PCs with all the elements of a desktop computer contained in a single, slim package, no bigger than a thick monitor . The fanless panel PCs can be mounted on a desktop monitor stand and save a huge amount of desktop space by including all the computer components behind the screen. All models include a touch screen interface.
The fanless is a self-contained system, with all parts, excluding the power supply , cont ained inside the casing allowing a completely interactive panel PC with only a single power cable. External devices are connected wirelessly through Bluetooth technology and network access is enabled through an 802.1 1b/g/n wireless adapter . Wired options are always available on the rear panel, with two serial ports and USB ports for peripherals and a Gigabit Ethernet jack for networking.
The fanless includes both audio and visual multimedia capabilities. All models have a VGA output for connecting another monitor to the system, and audio outputs for external audio. There is also a built-in 300 K webcam and microphone.

2.7 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. T o 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 motherboardinstalled in the FPC 7160/ FPC 7162. Before the FPC7160/ FPC7162 is installed, the jumpers must be set in accordance with the desired configuration. The jumpers on the FPC7160/ FPC7162 motherboard are listed in Table 2-4.

A. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: The precautions outlined in this chapter should be strictly followed. Failure to follow these precautions
may result in permanent damage to the FPC7160/ FPC7162.
A.1 Safety Precautions
Please follow the safety precautions outlined in the sections that follow:
A.1.1 General Safety Precautions
Please ensure the following safety precautions are adhered to at all times.
-Follow the electrostatic precautions outlined below whenever the FPC7160/ FPC7162 is opened.
-Make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is disconnected whenever the FPC7160/ FPC7162 is being installed, moved or modified.
-Do not apply voltage levels that exceed the specified voltage range.
-Doing so may cause fire and/or an electrical shock.
-Electric shocks can occur if the FPC7160/ FPC7162 chassis is opened when the FPC7160/ FPC7162 is running.
-Do not drop or insert any objects into the ventilation openings of the FPC7160/ FPC7162.
-If considerable amounts of dust, water , or fluids enter the FPC7160/ FPC7162, turn off the power supplyimmediately, unplug the power cord, and contact the FPC7160/ FPC7162 vendor .
-DO NOT : o Drop the FPC7160/ FPC7162 against a hard surface. o Strike or exert excessive force onto the LCD panel. o Touch any of the LCD panels with a sharp object o In a site where the ambient temperature exceeds the rated temperature

A.1.2 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING: Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the FPC7160/ FPC7162 may result in
permanent damage to the FPC7160/ FPC7162 and severe injury to the user . Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including
the FPC7160/ FPC7162. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical that whenever the FPC6084 is opened and any of the electrical components are 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 any electrical component.
-Self-grounding: Before handling any electrical component, touch any grounded conducting material. During the time the electrical component is handled, frequently touch any conducting materials that are connected to the ground.
-Use an anti-static pad: When configuring or working with an electrical component, place it on an antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damage.
-Only handle the edges of the electrical component: When handling the electrical component, hold the electrical component by its edges.

the on-board battery . Dispose of used batteries according to instructions and local regulations.
-Outside the European Union - If you wish to dispose of used electrical and electronic products outside the European Union, please contact your local authority so as to comply with the correct disposal method.
-Within the European Union:
EU-wide legislation, as implemented in each Member State, requires that waste electri cal and electronic products carrying the mark (left) must be disposed of separately from normal household waste. This includes monitors and electrical accessories, such as signal cables or power cords. When you need to dispose of your display products, please follow the guidance of your local authority , or ask the shop where you purchased the product. The mark on electrical and electronic products only applies to the current European Union Member States.
Please follow the national guidelines for electrical and electronic product disposal.
A.2 Maintenance and Cleaning Precautions
When maintaining or cleaning the FPC7160/ FPC7162, please follow the guidelines below .
A.2.1 Maintenance and Cleaning
Prior to cleaning any part or component of the FPC7160/ FPC7162, please read the details below .
-Except for the LCD panel, never spray or squirt liquids directly onto any other components. To
clean the LCD panel, gently wipe it with a piece of soft dry cloth or a slightly moistened cloth.
-The interior of the FPC7160/ FPC7162 does not require cleaning. Keep fluids away from the FPC7160/ FPC7162 interior.
-Be cautious of all small removable components when vacuuming the
