Chapter 1 General Information
1.1 Introduction
The TPC-66 series of touch panel computers consist of state-of-the-art
HMI (Human Machine Interfaces). The 5.7"/ 5.6" operator interface combined with a RISC-based computing platform offers these key features:
• Bright Display:
The high-brightness LCD display provides a clear interface.
• Fanless:
By using a low power processor, the system does not have to rely on
fans, which often are unreliable, and attracts dust.
• Powerful Communication Capability:
The TPC-66 series provides a powerful I/O interface for easy
communication with other devices. The I/O interface includes serial
ports, RS-485 port, Ethernet and USB.
• Windows CE Support:
Advantech offers platform support for Windows CE. The optional
Windows CE operating system specifically for the TPC-66 is available
for Windows CE application program builders.
• JVM Support:
TPC-66 is powered by JVM that is compatible with Personal Java 1.2.

• 3 serial ports: two RS-232 (COM1, COM2); one RS-485 (COM4) or
one RS-232(COM3)
Note TPS-66 provides three serial ports. The third one can
be set as COM3 for RS-232 or COM4 for RS-485.
Note: It is suggested to use hardware flow control in order
to avoid data loss.
• 1 RJ-45 Ethernet port
• 2 USB ports compliant with USB 1.1: one USB Host (Type A) and one
USB Client (Type B)

1.7 Panel Mounting
There is an adhesive waterproof gasket on the Al-Mg front bezel. Make
sure the waterproof gasket is in position before installing a TPC-66 panel
computer into the panel opening.
1. Install the panel computer into the panel opening.
2. Find the eight clampers and eight long screws in the accessory
pack. Hook these clampers to the holes around the four sides of the
bezel. Insert the screws into every clamper and fasten them. These
screws will then push the mounting panel and fix the unit. The
mounting panel thickness is suggested to be less than 6 mm (0.236
inch).
