Installing the MPC-2000 Series

Desktop

The MPC-2000 series comes with optional brackets that allow you
to install the d isplay on a horizontal surface, such as a desktop.
Three round screws are required for each bracket. See the figure
for detailed screw specifications and their torque values.

Place your MPC-2000 series display on a cle an, flat, well-ventilated
desktop. To protect the computer from overheating, leave some
ventilation space between the MPC-2000 series and other
equipment.

Do NOT place equipment or objects on the panel, as this might
damage internal components.

Wall Mounting

The MPC-2000 serie s comes with optional c lamp mounts for
installation onto a wall (where space has been cut out to
accommodate the rest of the hardware) or into computing stations
where a flush mount is desired.

For a secure mounting, use all 14 clamps on the MPC-2260 a nd
MPC-2240, or use 10 clamps on the MP C-2190.

The clamp arms are fastened into slots on a ll four sides of the
MPC-2000 series. Use the short M 4 SUS screw s to fasten the clamp
arms to the MPC -2000 series mounting slots, as shown in the
following figur e. Next, use the clamps to fasten the MPC-2000
series to its mounting point; note the torque value as shown in the
figure.

VESA Moun ting

The MPC-2000 series also comes with an optional VESA mounting
kit. Six flat screws and four round screws are required to attach the
VESA mounting bracket . See the following figure for detailed screw
specifications and torque values.

An additional fou r screws (not in cluded in the kit ) are required to
mount the MPC -2000 series on a VESA rack. For this purpose, use
M6 screws with a length between 10 and 12 mm.

Powering the MPC-2000 Series On or Off

To power on the MPC-2000 series, connect the Terminal Block to
Power Jack Converter to the MPC-2000 series DC terminal block

(located on the bottom panel) and then connect a power adapter;
or, alternately , you may power the device using the AC powe r
cord.

Touch the MENU button (in the lower right corner of the display
panel) for one second to turn on the computer. It takes about 10 to
30 seconds for the system to boot up.

To power off the MPC-2000 series, touch the MENU button for four
seconds; depending on the power management settings of the
operating system, you can select the “standby”, “hiberna tion”, or
“system shutdown” mode.

If you encounter any technical pro blems, touch the MENU button
for 10 secon ds to forc e the system to shut down.

NOTE If

the MPC-200 0 series is powe red using a DC converter ,

the system displays

Fail for the AC power status in the

dialog. This does not affect the operation of the

MPC-2000 series .

Grounding the MPC -2000 Series

Proper grounding and wire routing help to limit the effects of noise
from electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground
connection from the ground screw to the grounding surface prior to
connecting the power source.

For detailed information on setup and config uration, refer to the
MPC-2000 Series Hardware Manual, which you can download from
