Mounting options
The mounting options for the IBM AnyPlace Kiosk are as follows:
VESA-standard mounting holes
Wall mount
Tabletop mount
Introducing the IBM AnyPlace Kiosk
The system has 100 mm VESA mounting points for use with standard,
third party VESA mounting options.
This mount minimizes protrusion from the wall, but does not have any tilt
or swivel capability.
This mount tilts the monitor forward and back and rests on a tabletop. For
security, a Kensington security slot is provided (A in Figure 2). Also, a
round 5.5 mm (0.217 in.) hole enables the mount to be secured (B in
Figure 2) with an M5 or 10-24 pan head screw.

Installation steps
Follow these steps to install the IBM AnyPlace Kiosk:
1. Install your options. See “Installing the options” on page 14.
2. Route, connect, and retain the cables. See “Retaining the cables” on page 13.
Note: Be sure to route the cables through the tabletop mount before connecting
to the unit.
3. Install the IBM 4838 on your mounting option: tabletop (see “Tabletop mount”
on page 21) or wall (see “Wall mount” on page 23) or the third-party VESA
mount instructions.
4. Power On the IBM 4838. See “Powering on” on page 23.
Opening the cable covers
The cable covers provide security and protection to the IBM 4838 cable and
connections.
Note: The MSR/USB cable cover can be opened independently of the main cover.
P
Figure 5. Close-up view of quarter-turn latch
Follow these steps to open the cable covers:
1. Flip up the metal handle (P).
2. Rotate the quarter-turn latches to the unlocked position.
3. Open the MSR/USB cable cover before opening the main cable cover.
12
IBM AnyPlace Kiosk 4838
Retaining the cables
The RS-232 cables and the VGA cable are retained to the system unit with screws.
The MSR, scanner, and Ethernet cables are retained by a snap latch on the
connector. The power input cable is retained by the system unit bottom cover.
You can retain the audio and USB cables by placing the cables into the U-slots that
are part of the bottom cover. The slots in the cable covers retain the I/O cables by
retaining the cable ties. Install the cable ties as follows:
1. Plug each cable into its respective connector.
2. Attach the cable ties to the I/O cables on the outside of the bottom cover. The
cable tie width should be approximately 5 mm wide.
Note: Ensure that the cable tie is large enough to keep the cable retained, and
3. Adjust the cable so that the cable tie is on the I/O connector side of the bottom
cover.

that it is installed extremely tight to the I/O cable. The head of the cable
tie should be at the bottom of the bottom cover U-slot.

Installing the options
The design of the IBM 4838 allows you to install the options without removing the
external cover. Table 7 describes the components and the respective access door.
Many upgrade features are factory-installed. See Figure 3 on page 10 to identify the
access doors.
Installing the scanner
Follow these steps to install the scanner:
1. From the rear of the IBM AnyPlace Kiosk, open both cable covers using the
quarter-turn latches.

2. Use a small, flat-blade screw driver to pry and then lift out to remove the MSR
plugs (V in Figure 7).
3. Locate the mounting slots for the MSR on the right side of the unit.
4. Align the MSR such that the MSR hooks are slightly above their matching slots
on the 4838. Slide the MSR downward into position, being careful not to pinch
the MSR cable.
5. Install the screw or thumbscrew to retain the MSR. Use the screw when the
kiosk operates in a public environment so as to increase the security of the unit.
6. Plug the MSR cable to its indicated connector. See Figure 7.
7. Starting from the MSR, press the MSR cable into the U slot (U) in the rear
cover. The excess MSR cable should be placed in the MSR/USB cable cover
area.

Attaching the IBM AnyPlace POS Hub
The AnyPlace POS Hub is a high-speed USB 2.0 compatible hub that allows you to
attach IBM point of sale input/output devices. These devices include printers,
keyboards, displays, and cash drawers. The hub provides power for the I/O
devices as well as the IBM AnyPlace Kiosk.

Note: Standard USB (5V) devices can be hot plugged into any USB port on an IBM
system unit. If the hot plugged device does not function properly, try
unplugging and reattaching the device to resolve the issue.
Important: Hot plugging a powered USB device (24V and 12V - red and
green plugs respectively) can cause system errors and is not supported on
any IBM system unit.
For more information, see the IBM AnyPlace POS Hub Planning, Installation andService Guide, GA27-4370. Complete the following instructions to attach I/O
devices to the AnyPlace POS Hub:
