Improved durability due to its 5-wire resistive film touch panel
This product uses a 5-wire resistive film touch panel that has excellent durability, which provides a long
operating lifetime. Compared to our conventional product, the PT-955 Series, the number of operations
has increased from 10 million to 36 million*3.

- 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. It is free from dusts and foreign objects, and the use the parts that degrades over the years
is avoided in most case, resulting in drastic alleviation of the maintenance burden.

- Major types of peripherals are supported with rich interfaces including the two CFast card slots
It has a variety of extended interface such as 1000BASE-T x 2, USB2.0 x 4, serial (RS-232C) x 2.
It has 2 CFast card slots that can use for OS and data. They are very useful because you can use one slot
for system start-up and the other for maintenance, system log, or taking away the collected data.

- Falling-off prevention tools and cable clamps provided to avoid trouble caused by disconnected cable
This product stays trouble-free, being equipped with USB removal prevention fitting and cable clamp for
connectors with no locking mechanism, such as USB cable, and with hardware to properly mount and
avoid falling out of CFast card.

- Safety design required for embedded applications
Retention of CMOS data by EEPROM allows the system to start up even when the battery has run out.

For Windows Embedded Standard installed model, it is possible to use the EWF*3 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.

*1 This is a comparison of actual measured values performed in CONTEC's environment on a Windows Embedded

Standard 7 model with the CrystalMark 2004R3 benchmark software.

*2 This is the median between the power consumption with no load and one with maximum load when using a 12VDC

input power supply.
*3 This value has been tested by mechanical touching under 300g of force at a rate of two presses per second.
*4 EWF (Enhanced Write Filter) is a function specific to Windows Embedded Standard that protects the disk from being

actually written by redirecting the writing to RAM.

PT-955SxX User’s manual

- 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.

- The CFast card connector doesn't support hot plug. The pulling out opening of the CFast card cannot
be done in the state of power supply ON. Please neither pulling out opening of CFast in the state of
power supply ON of this product nor come in contact with CFast. This product may malfunction or
cause a failure.

- Component Life:

(1) Battery---The internal calendar clock and CMOS RAM are backed by a Lithium primary battery.

The backup time at a temperature of 25°C with the power disconnected is 10 years or
more.

(2) CFast ---The OS-installed model uses a CFast card in the OS storage area.

The rewritable limit for the NandFlash is 60,000 times or more.
As a reference value, the rewritable lifetime can be determined by the following
calculating formula:
Rewritable lifetime (number of times) = ((capacity [MB]/management block size [MB])
× 60,000 times)/(number of management blocks rewritten each time)
Example:
If a 4MB file is created on a 4GB CFast card and is rewritten once every 10 seconds:
Rewritable lifetime = ((3,521/2) × 60,000)/2 = 52,815,000 (times)
Operating lifetime = 52,815,000/((60/10) × 60 × 24 × 365) = Approximately 17 (years).

(3) Touch panel--- The operating lifetime of the touch panel is at least 36 million touches

(as tested by mechanical touching under 250g of force at a rate of two presses
per second).

(4) LCD backlight--- Display brightness decreases over time with use.

The operating lifetime of the backlight is 50,000 hours (the time until the
brightness is lowered to 50% of the initial value).

* Replacement of expendables is handled as a repair (there will be a charge).

* Component life is not guaranteed value but only referential value.

Install the appropriate display driver for your OS from the CONTEC’s Web site [IPC-SLIB-01].
(For information on the latest version of IPC-SLIB-01, check the CONTEC's Web site.)

CAUTION

When the analog display is used, Windows MS-DOS may not be properly displayed in full-screen

mode.
This is because the frequency and resolution of Windows and MS-DOS (full-screen display) are the
same due to the screen settings while the display parameters are different.
For display, as only one parameter can be stored for one frequency or resolution, only either of
Windows or MS-DOS screen can be displayed properly.
In this case, change the resolution or display frequency of Windows so that it is not the same as for
the MS-DOS display.

5. BIOS Setup

Introduction

This chapter discusses American Megatrends’s Setup program built into the FLASH ROM BIOS. The
Setup program allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This special information is then
stored in battery-backed RAM so that it retains the Setup information when the power is turned off.

The rest of this chapter is intended to guide you through the process of configuring your system using
Setup.

Starting Setup

The Award BIOS is immediately activated when you first power on the computer. The BIOS reads the
system information contained in the CMOS and begins the process of checking out the system and
configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an operating system on one of the disks and then
launch and turn control over to the operating system.

While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one of two ways:
1 By pressing <Del> or <F2> immediately after switching the system on, or
2 Press <Del> or <F2> when the message "Press <DEL> or <F2> to enter setup." is displayed on the

screen during POST (Power On Self-Test).

Press <DEL> or <F2> to enter setup.

If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system to try
again by turning it OFF then ON. You can also restart the system by pressing <Ctrl>, <Alt>, and
<Delete> at the same time.

Using Setup

In general, you use the arrow keys to highlight items, press <Enter> to select, use the Page Up and Page
Down keys to change entries, press <F1> for help and press <Esc> to quit. The following table provides
more detail about how to navigate in the Setup program using the keyboard.

Getting Help

Press F1 to pop up a small help window that describes the appropriate keys to use and the possible
selections for the highlighted item. To exit the Help Window press <Esc> key again.

In Case of Problems

If you cannot boot the computer after using Setup to change and save system settings, the computer will
have to be repaired. The best advice is to only alter settings which you thoroughly understand. To this end,
we strongly recommend that you avoid making any changes to the chipset defaults. These defaults have
been carefully chosen by both AMI and your systems manufacturer to provide the absolute maximum
performance and reliability. Even a seemingly small change to the chipset setup has the potential for
causing you to use the override.

A Final Note About Setup

The information in this chapter is subject to change without notice.

Baud Rate Settings
A baud rate is set by software by dividing the clock input (1.8432MHz). The baud rate in terms of

hardware can be set to a maximum of 115,200 bps for SERIAL A, B. The baud rates available in practice
depend on the operating environment (cable, software, etc.). The table below lists typical baud rates and
their respective values to be written to the divisor latch register (LSB, MSB).

Watch-Dog-Timer

The watchdog timer serves as a safeguard against possible system lock-up in your industrial computer
system. In most industrial environments, there are heavy equipment, generators, high-voltage power lines,
or power drops that have adverse effects on your computer system. For instance, when a power drop
occurs, it could cause the CPU to come to a halt state or enter into an infinite loop, resulting in a system
lock-up.

The application software created by user with the watchdog timer enabled, a RESET automatically
generated unless the software periodically triggers the timer within the setting time-out interval. That is,

while the system gets hung up, the running program can’t trigger the timer periodically. The timer will

generate a reset signal to reboot the system. This feature allows a running program to restart in an orderly
way when a power glitch or any abnormal condition occurs.

The watchdog timer comes with 255-level time-out interval, 1 - 255 seconds per interval, which can be
adjusted by software setting. There is a tolerance of 2 second for this time-out interval. For example, if
the time-out interval has been set to 32 seconds, your program should trigger the watchdog timer before
28 seconds are escaped. Otherwise, after 28 - 32 seconds are escaped, the system will automatically
reboot. To keep the system running normally, your program should trigger the watchdog timer every 28
seconds.

The I/O port is defined at address 2e/2fH. You can trigger enable / disable the timer by writing address
2e/2fH.

Here is an example for flow chart and programming how to use the watch-dog-timer.

If [WDT Stop] is not performed within the limit time set up
by [WDT Start], system reset occurs.

}

When performing the re-start of WDT, it repeats [WDT Start] and [WDT Stop].

* It is also possible not to perform [WDT Stop] instead of performing [WDT Stop] to [WDT Start], but to perform [WDT

Start] continuously at the time of a re-start.
