Product Description

2Product Description

2.1Application

The BTC14 is a rugged, industrial-strength box thin client optimized for 24/7 operation. The BTC14 has been specially designed for immunity to shock, vibration, and temperatures within an extended range of -20 °C to +60 °C and is characterized by a fanless construction and industrial-strength components. This compact, stand-alone computer features an AMD Ryzen Embedded V1202B processor and a modern integrated graphics card. Four DisplayPort™ interfaces support up to four monitors at Ultra HD resolution (4K at 60 Hz), making the BTC14 ideal for monitoring and control applications in factory and process automation.

Warning!

User access

Do not open the device. The BTC14 is a closed unit with no user-accessible parts.

Note

Radio interference

This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device pursuant to part 15 of the FCC regulations. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the device is used in a commercial environment. This device generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. If not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, it may cause interference with wireless connections. Operation of this device in a residential area is likely to result in interference that the operator will have to correct at the operator's own expense.

2.2RM Shell 5

The VisuNet RM Shell 5 firmware allows the user to easily access applications running on a host system via Ethernet (e.g., workplace PC or server). RM Shell 5 is based on Windows® 10 IoT Enterprise LTSB, an embedded version of Windows® with long-term support that is compatible with the latest versions of popular remote protocols such as RDP 10, Citrix Receiver, and VNC. Using these protocols, the BTC12 and other VisuNet remote monitors can be easily integrated into all major process control systems, whether they are virtual or they depend on conventional, workstation-based setups.

Figure 2.4

For more information about using RM Shell 5, see the VisuNet RM Shell manual.

3.1Mounting

Warning!

Installation

The device must be installed by competent personnel in accordance with the instructions. All applicable laws and regulations must be carefully observed.

Preparation for Installation

Check the package contents and all accessories ordered for completeness and signs of damage. If the contents are incomplete, damaged, or do not match your order, contact your delivery service immediately.

Mounting

The device is intended for indoor use. If placed in a suitable housing, the device can also be used outdoors.

Note

If the device is used in a manner not prescribed by the manufacturer, the built-in protective function of the device may be impaired.

The device is cooled passively. Natural airflow is required to ensure proper cooling. If the device is installed in a housing, power dissipation from the device must be taken into account (see chapter 3.2).

Vertical installation provides optimal cooling since air passes through the cooling fins.

Observe the following recommended distances to other electrical components or to a housing wall:

•Below the device (if mounted vertically): ± 100 mm

•All other sides: ± 50 mm
