PPC-51xxA-H61 Panel PC
The PPC-51xxA-H61 panel PC is for industrial environments like production lines and
machine automation. The PPC-51xxA-H61 provides all the features of a PC, combined
with a touch panel screen for mouse and keyboard free data input. The PPC-51xxA-H61
provides wired networking for integration into company networks. The major external
device connections include USB 2.0, USB 3.0 and serial port connectors. Storage options
include a 2.5” hard drive, a CompactFlash® card slot and optional mSATA, allowing for
flexibility in choosing solid state drives or traditional hard drives. A VGA output on the
bottom panel allows the PPC-51xxA-H61 to connect to a second screen for duplicating the
screen contents or extending the user interface.

3.1 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the maintenance of the EP
series may result in permanent damage to the EP series and severe
injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the PPC-51xxA-H61. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is
therefore critical that whenever the PPC-51xxA-H61 is accessed internally, or any other
electrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered
to.
Wear an anti-static wristband : - Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.
Self-grounding : - Before handling the board touch any grounded conducting
material. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any
conducting materials that are connected to the ground.
Use an anti-static pad : - When configuring the PPC-51xxA-H61, place it on
an antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the
PPC-51xxA-H61.
Only handle the edges of the PCB : - When handling the PCB, hold the PCB
by the edges.
3.2 Installation Precautions
When installing the panel PC, please follow the precautions listed below:
Power turned off : When installing the panel PC, make sure the power is off.
Failing to turn off the power may cause severe injury to the body and/or
damage to the system.
Certified Engineers : Only certified engineers should install and modify
onboard functionalities.
Page 23
Page 39
Mounting : The PPC-51xxA-H61 is a heavy device. When mounting the
system onto a rack, panel, wall or arm, please make sure that at least two
people are assisting with the procedure.
Anti-static Discharge : If a user open the rear panel of the panel PC, to
configure the jumpers or plug in added peripheral devices, ground themselves
first and wear and anti-static wristband.

3.6 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 PPC-51xxA-H61.
PPC-51xxA-H61 Panel PC
Before the PPC-51xxA-H61 is installed, the jumpers must be set in accordance with the
desired configuration. The jumpers on the PPC-51xxA-H61 motherboard are listed in

3.11 Mounting the System
WARNING!
When mounting the PPC-51xxA-H61 panel PC, it is advisable to have
more than one person help with the installation to prevent accidental
damage to the panel and avoid personal injury.
The methods of mounting the PPC-51xxA-H61 are:
Wall mounting
Panel mounting
Arm mounting
Stand mounting
Rack mounting
The mounting methods are described in the following sections.
3.11.1 Wall Mounting
To mount the PPC-51xxA-H61 panel PC onto a wall, please follow the steps below.
Step 1: Select the location on the wall for the wall-mounting bracket.
Step 2: Carefully mark the locations of the four bracket screw holes on the wall.
Step 3: Drill four pilot holes at the marked locations on the wall for the bracket retention
screws.
Step 4: Align the wall-mounting bracket screw holes with the pilot holes.
Step 5: Secure the mounting bracket to the wall by inserting the retention screws into
the four pilot holes and tightening them (
Figure 3-22).
Page 43
Page 59
Figure 3-22: Wall-mounting Bracket
Step 6: Insert the four monitor mounting screws provided in the wall mounting kit into the
PPC-51xxA-H61 Panel PC
four screw holes on the real panel of the monitor and tighten until the screw
shank is secured against the rear panel (
Step 7: Align the mounting screws on the monitor rear panel with the mounting holes on
the bracket.
Step 8: Carefully insert the screws through the holes and gently pull the monitor
downwards until the monitor rests securely in the slotted holes (
Ensure that all four of the mounting screws fit snuggly into their respective
slotted holes.
Figure 3-23).
Figure 3-23).
NOTE:

Figure 3-23: Mount the Chassis
Step 9: Secure the panel PC with the wall-mounting kit. To do this, stick the protective
cushion to the wall-mounting kit first. Then, put the wall-mounting kit on the top
panel of the panel PC. Carefully mark the location of the wall-mounting kit screw
holes on the wall. Drill a pilot hole at the marked location on the wall. Secure the
wall-mounting kit to the wall by inserting a retention screw into the pilot hole on
the wall (
7 Figure 3-24). This step is to avoid the panel PC being pushed apart
from the wall-mounting bracket accidentally. Step 0:
