1.1 Introduction

The TPC-1260 touch panel computer is a revolutionary product of HMI (Human Machine Interface). This 12.1” display operator interface is a x86-based platform with these key features:
--All in on platform: the CPU, DRAM or even Windows CE are integrated. It is a plug-and-play machine compared with those so­called panel PCs.
- Slim but robust: the TPC-1260 is very thin (50mm thickness); nevertheless its Mg-Al bezel provides amazing structural strength and EMI reduction.
- Excellent display: the high brightness TFT LCD display fits the industrial demand well.
- Fan-less and modular CPU board: the introduction of low power processor prevents this system from unreliable fans. In addition, the modular design facilitates the maintenance or possible upgrade on the CPU board.
- Powerful communication capability: the TPC-1260 provides serial ports, parallel port, Ethernet, USB and PC/104 plus expansion slot. Almost all communications devices can access to this system.
- Windows CE support: in addition to DOS and W indows 9x series, Advantech also offers platform support for Windows CE. The optional Windows CE operating system specifically for the TPC-1260 is available for Windows CE application program builders.

1.7 Mounting

1.7.1 Panel mounting
1.There is a piece of adhesive waterproof gasket on the Mg-Al front bezel. Make sure the waterproof gasket is in position before install the TPC-1260 to the panel opening.
2 .Install the TPC-1260 to the panel opening.
3.Find out the eight clampers and eight long screws in the accessory pack. Hook those clampers to those holes around the four sides of the bezel. Insert the screws to every clamper and fasten them. These screws will then push on the mounting panel and fix the unit.
4.The mounting panel thickness is suggested to be less than 6mm (0.236 inch).
<6mm

System Quick Starting
This chapter provides a brief explanation for operating the TPC-1260. With these step-by-step guidelines it's easy to make the TPC-1260 start working.
Step 1: Unpack the TPC-1260 package. Please check the packing list at the beginning of this manual.

(P/N: 2130201590)
Accesory Box (P/N: 2110002150)
Gift Box (P/N: 2110002430)

Figure 2-1 Unpack the package

Step 2a: Install a 2.5" HDD containing certain operating system (and even application programs) on the TPC-1260. Please refer to section
1.2.3 for the boot-up sequence.
As shown in the Figure 2-2, align the 2.5” HDD so that its four screw holes are upward. Usually this would make the HDD PCBA side upward too. Put the insulating sheet on the HDD. Carefully install the four vibration-absorbing cushions on the HDD cover. Fasten these parts together.
Now the HDD subassembly is done. It is self-aligned that the internal IDE cable can only be connected in correct direction. Connect the IDE cable to this subassembly and fasten the subassembly to the rear case of the system.

Warning: Do not turn on the system power before the HDD is
correctly fasten to the HDD cover and installed on the system.
