AFL2-12A-D525 Series Panel PC

2.3.1 Memory Support

2.3.1.1 Installed Memory
One 204-pin 1.0 GB 800 MHz DDR3 SO-DIMM is installed in the AFL2-12A-D525 and controlled by the Intel® Atom™ D525 CPU installed on the internal motherboard.

2.3.2 Storage Capacity

The AFL2-12A-D525 comes equipped with a CompactFlash® Type II (CF Type II) memory disk slot. The AFL2-12A-D525 also supports a 2.5” SATA HDD drive bay which can be easily accessed by removing two screws on the HDD cover.

2.4 External Peripheral Interface Connectors

The following section describes the external peripheral interface con nectors on the bottom panel of the subsystem.

2.4.1 Serial Port Connectors

The AFL2-12A-D525 has three serial ports. COM1 and COM3 support only RS-232 serial communications. The other serial port (COM6) can be configured as an RS-422 or RS-485 serial port. Enabling COM devices to be powered through the COM port eliminates unnecessary and messy cabling.
