A Safety Precautions
Appendix
A
Page 65
WARNING:
The precautions outlined in this chapter should be strictly followed.
Failure to follow these precautions may result in permanent damage to
the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530.
A.1 Safety Precautions
Please follow the safety precautions outlined in the sections that follow:
A.1.1 General Safety Precautions
Please ensure the following safety precautions are adhered to at all times.
AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 Panel PC
Follow the electrostatic precautions outlined below whenever the
AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 is opened.
Make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is disco nnected
whenever the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 is being installed, moved or modified.
Do not apply voltage levels that exceed the specified voltage range.
Doing so may cause fire and/or an electrical shock.
Electric shocks can occur if the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 chassis is opened
when the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 is running.
Do not drop or insert any objects into the ventilation openings of the
AFL-057A-Z510/Z530.
If considerable amounts of dust, water, or fluids enter the
AFL-057A-Z510/Z530, turn off the power supply immediately, unplug the
power cord, and contact the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 vendor.
DO NOT do the following:
o DO NOT drop the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 against a hard surface.
o DO NOT strike or exert excessive force onto the LCD panel.
o DO NOT touch any of the LCD panels with a sharp object
Page 66
o DO NOT use the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 in a site where the ambient
temperature exceeds the rated temperature
AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 Panel PC
A.1.2 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the
AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 may result in permanent damage to the
AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 and sever injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is
therefore critical that whenever the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 is opened and any of the
electrical components are 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 any electrical component.
Self-grounding: Before handling any electrical component, touch any
grounded conducting material. During the time the electrical component is
handled, frequently touch any conducting materials that are connected to the
ground.
Use an anti-static pad: When configuring or working with an electrical
component, place it on an antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD
damage.
Only handle the edges of the electrical component: When handling the
electrical component, hold the electrical component by its edges.

A.1.3 Product Disposal
CAUTION:
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by and incorrect type. Only
certified engineers should replace the on-board battery.
Dispose of used batteries according to instructions and local
regulations.
Outside the European Union - If you wish to dispose of used electrical and
electronic products outside the European Union, please contact your local
authority so as to comply with the correct disposal method.
Within the European Union:
EU-wide legislation, as implemented in each Member State, requires that
waste electrical and electronic products carrying the mark (left) must be
disposed of separately from normal household waste. This includes
monitors and electrical accessories, such as signal cables or power cords.
When you need to dispose of your display products, please follow the
guidance of your local authority, or ask the shop where you purchased the product. The
mark on electrical and electronic products only applies to the current European Union
Member States.
Please follow the national guidelines for electrical and electronic product disposal.
A.2 Maintenance and Cleaning Precautions
When maintaining or cleaning the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530, please follow the guidelines
below.
A.2.1 Maintenance and Cleaning
Prior to cleaning any part or component of the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530, please read the
details below.
Page 68
AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 Panel PC
Except for the LCD panel, never spray or squirt liquids directly onto any other
components. To clean the LCD panel, gently wipe it with a piece of soft dry
cloth or a slightly moistened cloth.
The interior of the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 does not require cleaning. Keep
fluids away from the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 interior.
Be cautious of all small removable components when vacuuming the
AFL-057A-Z510/Z530.
Turn the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 off before cleaning the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530.
Never drop any objects or liquids through the openings of the
AFL-057A-Z510/Z530.
Be cautious of any possible allergic reactions to solvents or chemicals used
when cleaning the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530.
Avoid eating, drinking and smoking within vicinity of the
AFL-057A-Z510/Z530.
A.2.2 Cleaning Tools
Some components in the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 may only be cleaned using a product
specifically designed for the purpose. In such case, the product will be explicitly mentioned
in the cleaning tips. Below is a list of items to use when cleaning the
AFL-057A-Z510/Z530.
Cloth – Although paper towels or tissues can be used, a soft, clean piece of
cloth is recommended when cleaning the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530.
Water or rubbing alcohol – A cloth moistened with water or rubbing alcohol
can be used to clean the AFL-057A-Z510/Z530.
Using solvents – The use of solvents is not recommended when cleaning the
AFL-057A-Z510/Z530 as they may damage the plastic parts.

C.1 One Key Recovery Introduction
The IEI one key recovery is an easy-to-use front end for the Norton Ghost system backup
and recovery tool. The one key recovery provides quick and easy shortcuts for creating a
backup and reverting to that backup or for reverting to the factory default settings.
The IEI One Key Recovery tool menu is shown below.

C.1.1 System Requirement
NOTE:
The recovery CD can only be used with IEI products. The software will
fail to run and a warning message will appear when used on non-IEI
hardware.
To create the system backup, the main storage device must be split into two partitions
(three partitions for Linux). The first partition will be for the operating system, while the
second partition will be invisible to the operating system and contain the backup made by
the one key recovery software.
The partition created for recovery images must be big enough to contain both the factory
default image and the user backup image. The size must be calculated before creating the
partitions. Please take the following table as a reference when calculating the size of the
partition.
OS OS Image after Ghost Compression Ratio
Windows® 7 7 GB 5 GB 70%
Windows® XPE 776 MB 560 MB 70%
Windows® CE 6.0 36 MB 28 MB 77%
Page 75
NOTE:
Specialized tools are required to change the partition size if the
operating system is already installed.
