Slate mode

In Slate mode, the all-in-one is a commercial Android device with access to over 700,000 apps, cloud computing, and Internet access.

Slate mode requires only a power connection. For Internet or network access, you must also have a wired (Ethernet) or wireless (Wi-Fi) connection (Refer to more information).

HDMI mode

In HDMI mode, the all-in-one is a standard monitor when connected to an HDMI device such as a PC, camera, or DVD player.

HDMI mode requires a power connection and an HDMI device connection. If the all-in-one is connected to a PC, you must also have a USB upstream cable (included) connected between the USB upstream port on the all-in-one and a USB downstream port on the PC for touch functionality.

Switching between Slate and HDMI modes

To switch between modes, press the Source button on the front panel. After pressing the Source button, a Mode Switch Request screen will pop up. To continue the mode switch, press the Source button again before the Mode Switch Request screen times out. If you want to cancel the mode switch, press the Volume down button. If you do not press one of the two buttons, the mode switch is automatically cancelled when the Mode Switch Request screen times out.

or data transfer currently in progress before switching modes. If you have a storage device such as a flash drive or external hard drive connected to one of the rear USB ports on the all-in-one, you must complete any data transfer and save and close any open data files on the storage device before switching modes. Otherwise, the switch will result in data loss and/or corrupted data files.

2 Setting up the hardware

You can install the all-in-one on a desktop or mount it to a mounting fixture such as a wall mount or swing arm. Be sure to place the all-in-one in a convenient, well-ventilated location. Connect the cables after you have installed the all-in-one to a mounting fixture.

To set up the all-in-one, ensure that the power is turned off to the all-in-one and all attached accessories, and then follow the instructions below for your configuration.

Preparing for desk use

To assemble the all-in-one for desktop use:

1. Set the all-in-one face down on a table or desk covered by a clean, dry cloth.

2. Pull the stand outward.

3. Lift the all-in-one to an upright position and place on a flat, stable surface.

Preparing for wall mounting

NOTE: This all-in-one is intended to be supported by UL or CSA Listed wall mount bracket.

To attach the all-in-one to a mounting fixture:

1. Set the all-in-one face down on a flat, soft, protected table or desk surface.

and then insert four 10 mm screws (not provided) through the holes on the mounting fixture and into the mounting holes on the all-in-one.

CAUTION: This all-in-one supports the VESA industry standard 100 mm mounting holes. To

attach a third-party mounting solution to the all-in-one, four 4 mm, 0.7 pitch, and 10 mm long screws are required. Longer screws must not be used because they may damage the all-in-one. It is important to verify that the manufacturer’s mounting solution is compliant with the VESA standard and is rated to support the weight of the all-in-one. For best performance, it is important to use the power and video cables provided with the all-in-one.
