AFL-W19A/17D/W15A-N270 Panel PC
The Afolux panel PCs are all-in-one panel PCs with all the elements of a desktop
computer contained in a single, slim package, no bigger than a thick monitor. The Afolux
panel PCs can be mounted on a desktop monitor stand and save a huge amount of
desktop space by including all the computer components behind the screen. All models
include a touch screen interface.
The Afolux is a self-contained system, with all parts, excluding the power supply,
contained inside the casing allowing a completely interactive panel PC with only a single
power cable. Network access is enabled through an 802.11b/g/n wireless adapter. Wired
options are always available on the rear panel, with two serial ports and four USB ports for
peripherals and two Gigabit Ethernet slots for networking.
The Afolux includes both audio and visual multimedia capabilities. All models have a VGA
output for connecting another monitor to the system, and audio outputs for external audio.
There is also a built-in 2-megapixel webcam and a microphone input jack.

2.5 Jumper Settings
NOTE:
A jumper is a metal bridge used to
close an electrical circuit. It consists of
two or three metal pins and a small
metal clip (often protected by a plastic
cover) that slides over the pins to
connect them. To CLOSE/SHORT a
jumper means connecting the pins of
the jumper with the plastic clip and to OPEN a jumper means removing
the plastic clip from a jumper.
The following jumpers can be found on the motherboard installed in the
AFL-W19A/17D/W15A-N270. Before the AFL-W19A/17D/W15A-N270 is installed, the
jumpers must be set in accordance with the desired configuration. The jumpers on the
AFL-W19A/17D/W15A-N270 motherboard are listed in

If the AFL-W19A/17D/W15A-N270 fails to boot due to improper BIOS settings, the clear
CMOS jumper clears the CMOS data and resets the system BIOS information. To do this,
use the jumper cap to close the pins for a few seconds then remove the jumper clip.
If the “CMOS Settings Wrong” message is displayed during the boot up process, the fault
may be corrected by pressing the F1 to enter the CMOS Setup menu. Do one of the
following:

LBA Mode: Indicates whether the LBA (Logical Block Addressing) is a method
of addressing data on a disk drive is supported or not.
Block Mode: Block mode boosts IDE drive performance by increasing the
amount of data transferred. Only 512 bytes of data can be transferred per
interrupt if block mode is not used. Block mode allows transfers of up to 64 KB
per interrupt.
PIO Mode: Indicates the PIO mode of the installed device.
