This product is a fanless computer for embedded applications. It features an Intel Atom processor E3845
chipset. Thanks to a quad-core CPU, simultaneous stable high-speed processing for four applications is
possible with four cores. This CPU also allows for computing power almost four times that of
conventional products in addition to three times the graphics performance, a significant improvement.
Moreover, power consumption has been significantly reduced, resulting in nearly double the power
efficiency compared w it h t he previous ge neration's architecture.It combines sufficient performance and
low power consumption in a space-saving de s ign that can be ins talled in spaces only 50-mm thick with
roughly the same area as a paperback book. This "resource-saving PC" helps you design more compact,
energy efficient equipment to reduce running costs and promote energy efficiency.
It has extension interfaces such as DVI-I, Display Port, 1000BASE-T, USB 3.0, and serial. It employs a
CFast card for storage and is fanless to ensure a totally spindleless design that simplifi es maintenance.
In addition, this product is equipped with a proprietary extended RAS*1 function independent of the main
computer functions. This feature provides various functions to increase system reliability by
automatically restarting the system when detecting errors such as frozen programs, operating system
startup faults, and a rise in internal temperature, and by saving detailed logs of the occurrence of errors,
which can be useful in failure analysis.
Embedded-type CPU have been adopted. The use of readily ava ilable parts ensures the ease o f the use of
the product . In addition, the use of Contec-customized BIOS allows support to be provided at the BIOS
level.
This product is av a ilable in the f ol l owing 5 models:
- Base model with Intel Atom Processor E3845 1.91GHz
BX-220D-DC700000 (Memory 4GB, ECC, without OS, withou t CFast)

1. Introduction
Features
- Contributing to redu ction of running cost and promotion of energy efficiency
It adopts the low-power platform with Intel
consumption while ensuring sufficient performance.
- Contributing to c omp ac t device design. Ultra-small PC is roughly the same area as a paperback book
It is the smallest [178 (W) x 115 (D) x 29 (H)] and lightest [800 g] PC in the series, and can be installed
almost anywh ere.
Can be installed in spaces only 50-mm thick with roughly the same area as a paperback book. It largely
serves downsizing of your equipment, fits any area with the aestheticness kept.
- Slitless/fanless design that reduces maintenance work
This product's spindleless design eliminates the heat dissipating slit and CPU fan and adopts CFast card
for the storage. There is no need to worry about the intrusion of dust or foreign objects , and the use of
parts that degrade over time is minimized to facilitate maintenance.
- Remote power managemen t function to reduce operation tasks
Supports system startup by external device over network (Wake-on-LAN), by general purpose input
(power on by GPI), and by modem reception (power on by ring). It encourages significant labor saving in
operation.
- Major types of peripherals are supported with rich interfaces including the two CFast card slots
It has a variety of extended i nterface such as DVI-I x 1, Display Port x 1, 1000BASE-T x 2, USB3.0 x 1,
serial (RS-232C) x 2.
It has two CFast card slots (one built into main unit), providing the ability to separate data from the
operating system, as well as the convenience of being able to use one slot for system star tup and the oth er
for maintenance or for taking home system logs or collected data.
- Built-in monitoring function for improved reliability of industrial equipment
The built-in sub-CPU for monitoring offers the ability to save failure logs documenting such information
as start-up failures, abnormal temperatures, abnormal OS operation, and reco r ding media swapped while
powered up, as well as the ability to restart the OS or the device. Recording the power-on time and the
operation time allows for proactive predictions of malfunctions due to parts having reached thei r service
life. This ability makes it possible to construct stable and highly reliable industrial systems.
- Falling-off prevention tools and fixing clamps pr ovided to avoid trouble caused by disconnected cable
This product stays trouble-free, being equipped with USB removal prevention fitting and cable clam p for
connectors with no loc king mechanism, such as USB cable, and with hardware to properly mount and
avoid falling out of CFast card.

1. Introduction
- Safety design required for embedded applications
For Windows Embedded Standard installed model, it is possible to use the EWF*2 function of OS. It is
designed for safety required for embedding purpose, for example, prohibiting unwanted writing to the CF
card with EWF function will relieve the concern about the writing limits to the CF card and prevent an
unintentional system alteration.
*2 EWF (E nhanced Write Filter) is a func tion specific to Windows E mbedded Standard that protects the disk from being actually written
by
redirecting the writing to RAM.
- A wide range of power supplies (10.8 - 31.2VDC) supported
As the product supports a wide range of power (10.8 - 31.2VDC), it can be used in a variety of power
environments. The separately available AC adapter adds support for 100VAC power.
Supported OS
