3.1 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the maintenance of the
AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3 may result in permanent damage to the
AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3 and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It
is therefore critical that whenever the AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3 is accessed internally, or
any other electrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly
adhered to.
AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3 Panel PC
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 AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3,
place it on an anti-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging
the AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3.
Only handle the edges of the PCB : When handling the PCB, hold the PCB
by the edges.
3.2 Installation Precautions
When installing the flat bezel panel PC, please follow the precautions listed below:
Power turned off : When installing the flat bezel 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.
Page 18
Certified Engineers : Only certified engineers should install and modify
onboard functionalities.
Page 35
AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3 Panel PC
Anti-static Discharge : If a user open the rear panel of the flat bezel panel PC,
to configure the jumpers or plug in added peripheral devices, ground
themselves first and wear an anti-static wristband.
3.3 Installation and Configuration Steps
The following installation steps must be followed.
Step 1: Unpack the flat bezel panel PC.
Step 2: Install an mSATA module or a HDD.
Step 3: Configure the system.
Step 4: Connect peripheral devices to the flat bezel panel PC.
Step 5: Mount the flat bezel panel PC. Step 0:
3.4 Removing the Back Covers
To access the AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3 internally the plastic back cover and the internal
aluminum cover must be removed. To remove the covers, please follow the steps below.
Step 1: Remove the retention screws from the back cover. Two types of screw are used
for securing the plastic cover of the AFL3-W15C-ULT3. See Figure 3-1 for det

3.11 AT/ATX Mode Selection
AT or ATX power mode can be used on the AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3. The selection is
made through an AT/ATX switch located on the bottom panel (Figure 3-20 ).
Figure 3-20: AT/ATX Switch Location
3.11.1 AT Power Mode
With the AT mode selected, the power is controlled by a central power unit rather than a
AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3 Panel PC
power switch. The AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3 panel PC turns on automatically when the
power is connected. The AT mode benefits a production line to control multiple panel PCs
from a central management center and other applications including:
ATM
Self-service kiosk
Plant environment monitoring system
Factory automation platform
Manufacturing shop flow
3.11.2 ATX Power Mode
With the ATX mode selected, the AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3 panel PC goes in a standby
mode when it is turned off. The panel PC can be easily turned on via network or a power
switch in standby mode. Remote power control is perfect for advertising applications
since the broadcasting time for each panel PC can be set individually and controlled
remotely. Other possible application includes

3.16 Installing Windows 7 from USB 3.0 Drives
Microsoft Windows 7 installation media does not include native driver support for USB 3.0,
so during installation, a keyboard/mouse connected to a USB 3.0 port does not respond.
The Windows 7 USB 3.0 Creator Utility automates the steps to update a Windows 7
installation image so that it contains USB 3.0 drivers. To install Windows 7 from a USB
drive onto the AFL3-W15C/W19C-ULT3, please follow the steps described below.
Step 1: Create a USB flash drive installer. Use your Windows 7 DVD or ISO image to
create a bootable USB flash drive. Instructions on how to do are found on
Microsoft’s website
Step 2: Download and unzip the Windows 7 USB 3.0 Creator utility
on the Admin system.
Step 3: Connect the USB device containing the Windows 7 image to the Admin system.
