1. Introduction

The V2401/2402 Series embedded computers are based on the Intel Atom N270 x86 processor, and feature
four RS-232/422/485 serial ports, ei g h t RS-232 serial ports, dual Gigabit LAN ports, six USB 2.0 hosts, and a
CompactFlash socket. The V2401 computer provides VGA, DVI, and LVDS outputs, and the V2402 computer
provides both VGA and DVI outputs, making them particularl y well-s uite d for ind us trial applications such as
SCADA and manufacturing automation.

The V2401 and V2402 come with four RS-232/422/485 serial ports , and the V2401 has an additional eight
RS-232 ports, making them ideal for connecting a wide range of serial devices. The dual 10/10 0/1000 Mbps
Ethernet ports offer a reliable solution fo r netwo rk redund a nc y , pro mis ing continuous operations for data
communication and management. As an added convenience, the V2 401 /24 02 co mputers have four DIs and
four DOs for connecting digital input/output devices.

In addition, the CompactFlash and USB sockets prov ide the V2400 compute rs with the reliability needed for
industrial applications that re quir e d ata buff er ing and storage expansion.

Pre-installed with Linux, Windows CE 6.0, or Windows Embedd ed Stand ard 2009 , the V2401/24 02 Ser ie s
provides programmers with a friendly environment for developing sophisticated, bug-free application software
at a low cost.

The V2402 series also offers models that support -40 to 70°C operating temperature for harsh environments.

Reset Button

Press the Reset Button on th e rear panel of the V2401/2402 to reboot the system automatically. The Ready
LED will blink on and off for the first 5 seconds, and then maintain a steady glow once the system has rebooted.

The V2401/2402 does not support a “Reset to Default” function.

Real Time Clock

The embedded computer’s real-time clock is powered by a lithium battery. We strongly recommend that yo u
NOT replace the lithium battery on your own. If the battery needs to be changed, please contact the Moxa RMA
service team.

ATTENTION

There is a risk of explosion if the wrong type of battery is used. To avoid this potential danger, always be sure
to use the correct type of battery. Contact the Moxa RMA service team if yo u nee

d to replace your battery.

C

aution

There is a r

isk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type. D
