PANEL MOUNTING
Follow the steps below to panel mount the PC2300:
1. Cut out a section of the panel that corresponds to the cut out dimensions shown on
the corresponding dimensional drawing
2. Place the PC2300 through the panel cut out so that the gasket surrounding the PC
screen is flush against the panel surface.
3. Insert the mounting clips into the slots provided around the perimeter of the rear of the
display.
4. Tighten the mounting clips in an even pattern until the PC is firmly held in place. The
screws should be tight enough to slightly deform the gasket. Do not overtighten.
Recommended torque: 3.5 in/lbs.
PC2300 Operations Manual ___ 13
PC2300 Operations Manual 14
VESA MOUNTING
Select any compatible VESA mounting system and install according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. The selected mounting system should be capable of supporting the net weight of the
PC2300 as listed in the specifications above.
Mounting points on the rear of the unit are compatible with the Video Electronics Standards
Association (VESA) Mounting Interface Standard (MIS) Part D. The mounting holes are arranged in a
100mm square pattern with M4 threads.
PC2300 Operations Manual ___ 14
PC2300 Operations Manual 15
TOUCH SCREEN CALIBRATION
The PC2300 is shipped with a factory touchscreen calibration and should work out of the box. A
calibration tool is preloaded in the event that there is a problem with the factory calibration or the
touchscreen needs recalibration. If the calibration of the touchscreen is inaccurate to the point where
the touchscreen is not usable, a USB mouse can be used to access the calibration tool as described
below.
Use the following steps to calibrate the touchscreen:
1. Launch the eGalaxTouch utility by clicking on the desktop icon or through the start
menu:
All programs > eGalaxTouch > Configure Utility
2. Select the tools tab and press the 4 Points Calibration button.
3. Follow the instructions in the calibration window to complete the touchscreen
calibration.
PCI CARD AND HDD / SSD INSTALLATION
This section describes how to remove the PC sub-assembly of the Panel PC from the display
assembly in order to access the hard drive and PCI express slot. The PC2300 will ship with a hard
drive installed and may be ordered with a PCI or PCIe riser card pre-installed so this section is not
required for a standard installation. However, these steps are necessary to replace a Hard Drive,
install a secondary Hard Drive, or to install a PCI or PCIe riser card.
REMOVE THE PC SUB-ASSEMBLY
1. Remove the four screws that secure the PC sub-assembly to the display assembly.
PC2300 Operations Manual ___ 15
PC2300 Operations Manual 16
2. Carefully lift the PC sub-assembly and gently rotate it towards the top of the display assembly
as shown below. Disconnect the two cables connecting the PC sub-assembly to the display
assembly only if necessary.
Note: the connectors are keyed to insure the correct orientation when re-connecting.

PC2300 Operations Manual 20
4. If installing an additional hard drive connect the provided SATA/SATA Power
connector to the connectors on the PC motherboard.
5. Replace or insert the additional HDD / SSD in the drive tray as needed, using the
provided mounting screws.
6. Re-assemble the system:
a. Attach the drive tray to the PC sub-assembly
b. Insert the SATA connectors into the newly installed HDD / SSD.
c. Attach the cables connecting the PC sub-assembly to the display assembly
d. Position the PC sub-assembly on the display assembly and secure with the
mounting screws.

AMI BIOS SET UP
INTRODUCTION
The system PC2300 uses an AMI Aptio BIOS that is stored in the Serial Peripheral Interface
Flash Memory (SPI Flash) and can be updated. The SPI Flash contains the BIOS Setup
program, Power-on Self-Test (POST), the PCI auto- configuration utility, LAN EEPROM
information, and Plug and Play support.
Aptio is AMI’s BIOS firmware based on the UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface)
Specifications and the Intel Platform Innovation Framework for EFI. The UEFI specification
defines an interface between an operating system and platform firmware. The interface consists
of data tables that contain platform-related information, boot service calls, and runtime service
calls that are available to the operating system and its loader. These provide standard
environment for booting an operating system and running pre-boot applications.
Following illustration shows Extensible Firmware Interface’s position in the software stack.
EFI BIOS provides an user interface allow users the ability to modify hardware configuration,
e.g. change system date and time, enable or disable a system component, decide bootable
device priorities, setup personal password, etc., which is convenient for modifications and
customization of the computer system and allows technicians another method for finding
solutions if hardware has any problems.
The BIOS Setup program can be used to view and change the BIOS settings for the computer.
The BIOS Setup program is accessed by pressing the <Del> or <F2> key after the POST
memory test begins and before the operating system boot begins. The settings are shown on
the next page(s).

ENTERING SETUP
When the system is powered on, the BIOS will enter the Power-On Self Test (POST) routines
and the following message will appear on the lower screen:
POST screen
As long as this message is present on the screen you may press the <Del> key (the one that
shares the decimal point at the bottom of the number keypad) to access the Setup program. In a
moment, the main menu of the Aptio Setup Utility will appear on the screen:
