1. Introduction
1. Introduction
This product is a panel mount computer based on the SH-4 CPU, integrating a TFT color LCD display
with a touch screen. As the unit has assorted interfaces including the USB, PC Card, 100BASE-TX,
and RS-232C connectors, it can be used widely as a general-purpose terminal for embedded applications.
Under Windows CE .NET loaded from Flash ROM along with user programs, the unit is implemented
as diskless hardware without the need for a shutdown procedure.
A full line of models is available to support any power supply environment.
The product employs an aluminum front panel, resulting in shorter outside dimensions and lighter
weight than the conventional model. It also employs a simplified structure that makes installation
easier than the conventional model.
Features
- Slim, compact design with a lightweight aluminum front panel (Embedded portion 46/49 mm)
- Rear fitting to easily fix the unit in the installation hole
- LCD arm (VESA compliant 75 mm type) available for installation
- 128MB(SDRAM) system memory standard
- 32 MB of internal, erasable programmable Flash ROM available as a user area, allowing user
programs to be added and deleted.
- Standard with two channels of serial port (one of which can be set for the RS-422A/485)
- Standard with a USB port, PC Card slot, 100BASE-TX LAN connector, and general-purpose
isolated digital I/O ports (three for each)
- Standard with stereo sound subsystem (external speaker output)
- IP65/NEMA4 compliant front panel.
- Expansion unit [IPC-PAC(PCI)-C1] available as an option to add one short-size PCI bo ard

Liability
The obligation of the warrantor is solely to repair or replace the product. In no event will the warrantor be
liable for any incidental or consequential damages due to such defect or consequences that arise from
inexperienced usage, misuse , or mal functi on of this device.
Warning
Indicates dos and don'ts that are assumed to result in possible death or serious injury if they are
inappropriately handled ignoring this icon.
- Do not use this product in the presence of flammable or corrosive gases. This may lead to explosion,
fire, or damage to equipment.
- In the event of smoke, or abnormal smells or sounds, immediately turn OFF the power to this
device, disconnect the plug from the power outlet, and contact the manufacturer. Continued use
could lead to fire or electrical shock.
- Because of the danger of electrical shock or fire, do not contact this device(Other than the front
touch panel) while electrical current is present.
- Never touch this device or connectors with wet hands. This can cause electrical shock.
- Do not allow this device to come into contact with foreign substances (metal particles, flammable
substances, liquids, etc.) This can cause fire or electrical shock.
- Do not place this device in an unstable location or use incomplete mountings. This may cause the
device to fall.
- This device must be operated at the specified voltage. Use of any other voltage level may cause fire
or electrical shock.
- This device must be properly grounded.
- When attaching or removing expansion units, always be sure to unplug the power cable from the
electrical outlet.
- Users should never disassemble or modify this device, or exchange components. This can cause fire
or electrical shock. In addition, the manufacturer is unable to repair products that have been
modified by the user.
- Procedures that could result in serious injury or loss of human life should never be performed from
a touch panel. Use system design methods that can guard against input errors.
Take the following precautions when handling this product.
- Do not use or store the product in a location such as extremely high or low temperature, rapid
temperature changes, and the place which receives a strong ultraviolet ray.
Example: - Exposure to direct sun
- In the vicinity of a heat source
- Do not use the product in extremely humid or dusty locations.
It is extremely dangerous to use the product with its interior penetrated by water or any other fluid
or conductive dust. If the product must be used in such an environment, install it on a dust-proof
control panel, for example.
- Avoid using or storing the device in locations subject to shock or vibration.
- Do not use the product in the vicinity of devices that generate strong magnetic force or noise.
Such devices will cause this device to malfunction.
- Do not use or store the product in the presence of chemicals.
- To clean the PANECON-PC, wipe it gently with a soft cloth dampened with either water or mild
detergent. Do not use chemicals or a volatile solvent, such as benzene or thinner, to prevent
pealing or discoloration of the paint.
- Do not use any sharp-pointed object such as a mechanical pencil to touch the touch panel. Doing
so may scratch the touch panel, resulting in malfunctions.
- Do not subject the touch panel to shock as doing so may break it.
- When the surface or frame of the touch panel has become dirty, wipe it with neutral detergent. Do
not wipe the touch panel with thinner, alcohol, ammonia, or a strong chlorinated solvent. Use a
protective sheet (available as an option) if the touch panel is used where it can easily collect dust
and dirt.
- Burn-in on TFT Display
"Burn-in" may occur if the same display is retained for a long time. Avoid this by periodically
switching the display so that the same display is not maintained for a long time.
* Burn-In: Phenomenon characterized by a TFT display as a result of long-time display of the
same screen where a shadow-like trace persists because electric charge remains in the
LCD element even after the patterns are changed.
- It is a characteristic of analog touch panels that their resistance may vary with changes to the
ambient environment (temperature and humidity) and with their own aging, resulting in the
deviation of the detection point. If this is the case, calibrate the touch panel again to re-set
calibration data.
- Life expectancy of components
(1)Battery: A lithium-ion primary battery is used to back up the internal
clock/calendar and CMOS RAM. The non-energized backup time at
25°C is 10 years or more.
(2)LCD backlight: Display brightness decreases over time with use.
The operating lifetime of the backlight is as follows (the time until the
brightness is lowered to 50% of the initial value):
- IPC-PT/MV10, IPC-PT/LS10, HPC-HMV10, and HPC-HLS10
: 50,000 ho u r s
(3)Touch panel: The operating lifetime of the touch panel is at least 1 million touches
(as tested by mechanical touching under 300 g of force at a rate of
two presses per second).
(4)AC power supply: The life expectancy of the AC power supply is about six years for
continuous operation of the unit (installed vertically) at 40 degrees
centigrade. Note, however, that it is shortened depending on the
operating temperature (when used at high temperatures).
(5)24VDC power supply : The life expectancy of the 24VDC power supply is about six years for
continuous operation of the unit (installed vertically) at 40 degrees
centigrade. Note, however, that it is shortened depending on the
operating temperature (when used at high temperatures).
(6) Flash memory (NFDISK): The number of times of rewriting has restriction that is 300,000.
Since CF-CARD is used for Flash memory (NFDISK), When use is
carried out for the use that rewrites frequently, be careful of the
number of times of rewriting.
* CONTEC accepts your request for replacing each consumable in the PANECON-PC as a request
for repair (at an additional cost).
- If installed horizontally (with the LCD panel face up), the unit should be used at an ambient
operating temperature of not greater than 30 degrees centigrade.
- Be sure to turn off the power before plugging or unplugging any expansion board or connector.
- CONTEC reserves the right to refuse to service a product modified by the user.
- In the event of failure or abnormality (foul smells or excessive heat generation), unplug the power
cord immediately and contact the sales representative you purchased the product from or the
CONTEC Information Center.
- Use an AC cable that is compatible with both the rated supply voltage and the receptacle.
- This product contains a lithium battery as the primary cell and a cold cathode tube for the backlight.
When disposing of the product, therefore, treat it in accordance with the disposal regulations
stipulated by your local government.
