Safety Instructions

 Read the Safety Instructions carefully and keep it for use later.

 The chassis metalwork of the module must be installed properly to the

main earthing termination for Class 1 equipment.

 Care must be exercised in the application of the system to prevent

overheating. Ensure that the ambient temperature around the system
does not exceed 60°C and provide adequate means of ventilation to
achieve this.

 When cleaning cut off the electrical supply at all times. Never use liquid or

aerosol detergent, use a soft damp cloth instead.

 Never insert anything metallic into the enclosure opening. This may create

an electric shock hazard or hazard from rotating fan blades.

 To avoid electric shock, never touch the inside of the system. There are

no user adjustable components inside, only a qualified technician should
open the system’s case.

 Fins on the rear system enclosure are to allow for cooling. To prevent

overheating, these fins should not be blocked or covered.

 If the system does not operate normally – in particular, if there are any

unusual sounds or smells coming from it – disconnect it immediately.

 Do not put pressure on the LCD panel screen because it is very fragile.

 Always handle the system with care when moving it.

 Take care that the system is disposed of correctly at the end of its life. If in

doubt refer to your local ordinances or regulations for proper disposal.

 A socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily

accessible.

Cleaning the LCD monitor

To clean the LCD panel:

 Wipe the screen gently with a clean lens brush made of camel hair, or a

soft, clean, lint free cloth. This is to remove dust and other particles
without scratching the LCD panel.

 If it is still not clean, then wipe with a damp lint free cloth and blow on it to

dry.

 Desirable cleaners are water, IPA (Isopropyl Alcohol) or Hexane.

19.0” Enclosed VESA Mount PC User’s Guide Page 3

Do not clean the panel with a Ketone type material (e.g. Acetone), or Ethyl alcohol,
Toluene, Ethyl acid, Methyl chloride. These may permanently damage the polarizer
due to chemical reaction.

Do not apply pressure to the LCD panel.

Mounting Procedure

VESA Panel Mounting Procedure:

1- Install the enclosure to a 100mm VESA mount pedestal.
2- Secure the enclosure using the screws and lock washers, supplied

with the unit.

3- Tighten all mounting hardware to a torque of 15 inch-pounds.

ATTENTION: Mounting hardware must be tightened to a torque of 15

inch-pounds to provide a proper panel mount and avoid potential damage.
Vartech Systems assumes no responsibility for water or chemical damage
to the monitor or other equipment within the enclosure due to improper
installation.

4- Attach the power and system cables to the bottom side of the

enclosure if you have not already done so.

Product Drawing: Detail –A–

Power Connection (Power In)

The Enclosed VESA Mount PC includes an AC line cord which is 10ft
long. The power input receptacle is located on the bottom rear panel of the
system.

Serial Connections (COM 1-2)

The Enclosed VESA PC is supplied with a serial connector configured for
RS-232. The connector is a 9 pin female connectors and can be set up for
any baud rate from 300 to 19.2 baud. The system is supplied with two 10ft
cable with a 9 pin D-shell connector is located on the rear lower panel of
the system.

Ethernet Connections (LAN)

The Enclosed VESA PC is supplied with integrated Ethernet. The interface
will support 10/100/1000 BaseT connection to a local area network (LAN).
The system is supplied with a 10ft cable with an RJ-45 female connector
located on the rear lower panel of the system.

USB Connections (USB 1-2-3)

The Enclosed VESA PC is supplied with three USB 2.0 connectors. The
system is supplied with three 10ft cables with a USB (type B) connector
which is located on the rear lower panel of the system.

Turning the system On and Off

Before connecting the Enclosed VESA Mount PC to power, connect any
peripheral devices. As a general rule, any peripheral device should only
be connected or disconnected when the Enclosed PC is off with the
exception of any USB peripheral.

The Enclosed VESA Mount PC is turned on using the main power push
button switch located on the rear lower panel. Once the Enclosed PC main
switch is turned on the computer power pushbutton switch must be
depressed for Windows to start. Windows must be properly shut down
before the main power switch is turned off to prevent the chance of
corrupting files in the operating system.

The Enclosed VESA Mount PC is rated for continuous duty. However, to
extend the life of the various components and conserve power, it is highly
recommended that the system be properly shut down and power turned
off when the Enclosed VESA Mount PC is not in use.

19.0” Enclosed VESA Mount PC User’s Guide Page 8

LCD Monitor Warm-up Time

All LCD monitors need time to become thermally stable the first time you
turn them on. Therefore, to achieve more accurate adjustments for
parameters, allow the LCD monitor to warm (be on) for at least 20 minutes
before making any screen adjustments.

Maintenance

The Enclosed VESA Mount PC is designed to provide optimum service
and performance with minimal maintenance including the occasional
external cleaning. For cleaning the Enclosed VESA Mount PC enclosure
follow the suggested guidelines.

General – NEVER use abrasive cleaners or solvent-based cleaners!! Use

a clean soft cloth. The Enclosed VESA Mount PC should only be opened
and serviced by a qualified technician. Keep the area around the Enclosed
VESA Mount PC clear and free of excessive dirt or other contaminants.

AMI BIOS Setup Utility

The AMI UEFI BIOS provides users with a built-in setup program to modify basic system

configuration. All configured parameters are stored in a flash chip to save the setup information

whenever the power is turned off. This chapter provides users with detailed description about

how to set up basic system configuration through the AMI BIOS setup utility.

Starting

To enter the setup screens, follow the steps below:

1. Turn on the computer and press <Del> during the Power On Self Test (POST) to enter
BIOS setup, otherwise, POST will continue with its test routines.

2. Once you enter the BIOS, the main BIOS setup menu displays. You can access the other
setup screens from the main BIOS setup menu, such as the Advanced and Chipset
menus.

If your computer cannot boot after making and saving system changes with BIOS
setup, you can restore BIOS optimal defaults by setting JP1 (see section 2.3.1).

Note

It is strongly recommended that you should avoid changing the chipset’s defaults. Both AMI
and your system manufacturer have carefully set up these defaults that provide the best
performance and reliability.

Navigation Keys

The BIOS setup/utility uses a key-based navigation system called hot keys. Most of the BIOS
setup utility hot keys can be used at any time during the setup navigation process. These keys
include <F1>, <F2>, <Enter>, <ESC>, <Arrow> keys, and so on.

Note
