Feature Description
Parallel Port The parallel printer port (LPT1) is a DB-25 pin female connector. This port provides a
standard PC compatible printer interface. An external push-button reset option is available. Consult the CPU board manual for the jumper that controls this option.
COM Ports COM1 is RS-232/485 compatible. RS/232 is connected to the lower nine-pin stacked
DB connector. The top part of this stack is the RS/485 version of the same port. Since these connectors are attached to the same port, only one can be used at a time. COM2 is the male 25-pin DB connector. COM2 is dedicated to the IR port, the touchscreen controller, or the 25-pin connector. Only one option can be used at a time.
Note: If you ordered Windows NT
, the driver is on disk and a copy of the driver file is on the hard drive. This operating system only supports COM2. Therefore, the touchscreen will be on COM2, and COM2 will not be available for other use.
Keyboard Port The keyboard port is a PS/2 stacked mini-din so a PC/AT keyboard can be attached at
either the front or side of the unit. The keyboard port on the side of the unit is the lower connector. Do not use when in the presence of a hazardous environment. Note: You
cannot use both keyboard ports on the 3535 at the same time.
Mouse Port The mouse port is a PS/2 stacked mini-din that allows you to attach a mouse at the
side of the unit. If you receive a unit with a touchscreen, this port may be covered with a label stating that the port is not functional as shipped. This is dependent upon the operating system installed.
Note: If the unit has a touchscreen and MS-DOS, Windows
3.x or Windows 95, the touchscreen is configured for the mouse port, making the mouse port unavailable. Reconfigure the touchscreen for use on COM2 to make mouse port functional.
Warning: To maintain a safe condition, do not use an external keyboard and/or mouse port when the unit is operating in a hazardous environment.
Video Port The video port is a 15-pin D-sub VGA connector at the side of the unit. This connector
supports any standard VGA connection. The video port is shipped disabled. This port is active if an LCD flat panel is not connected. A jumper can be used to switch between the VGA port and the LCD flat panel. To use both a video display on the video port and the flat panel display, you must enable “Simultaneous Video” on the Advanced Menu in the BIOS setup. Refer to the CPU manual for details.

Video Expansion
This section deals with the hardware expansion capability of the video controller chip in DOS applications.
Note
It is not necessary to read this section if you are a Windows or OS/2 user and do not plan to run DOS applications, and have not modified the default expansion mode in the BIOS setup,
Unlike a CRT, a flat panel display has a fixed horizontal and vertical resolution. There are many DOS video modes whose resolution is less than that of a flat panel display. In order to more efficiently make use of the flat panel display’s active area, it is necessary to employ an expansion technique which stretches the lower resolution information to fill the higher resolution of the display. For example, DOS defaults to VGA video mode 3+. This is an 80 column, 25-row text only screen whose effective resolution is 640 dots x 400 scan lines. Because of this, the 800 x 600 display of the system will be partially filled by the 640 x 400 resolution of this particular mode. By enabling the expansion function, these lower resolutions will better utilize the display by stretching the information in an attempt to fill the display. Operating systems such as Microsoft Windows 95, and Windows NT use display drivers to handle the different flat panel displays. Here expansion is not necessary since there is a specific driver for each resolution display.
Expansion does not add any resolution to the existing information; it simply stretches the information to better fit the display. Text and graphic screens can look somewhat grainy from the process of expansion. If the effect of expansion is undesirable, it can be turned off either in the BIOS setup, or by executing an included utility program. See the table below for the three utility programs included to allow expansion to be turned on, turned off, and set back to the BIOS default state and what effect they have on the display.

* Text expansion cannot be turned off With an 800 x 600 display, the stretching algorithm does not completely fill the
display horizontally or vertically. A greater vertical text expansion can be achieved by changing to VGA mode 3* (see Note below). This is also an 80 column, 25 row text mode but with an effective resolution of 640 x 350. The 350 lines stretch better to fill the 768-line display than does the default DOS mode 3+.
Note
The utility diskette includes a program titled MOD3_350.EXE, to allow switching to the VGA mode 3*. Another utility program, MOD3_400.EXE, is provided to put the mode back to the DOS default of 3+.
Windows may come up with a blank screen when using Windows 3.X with expansion turned on either through the BIOS setup or the EXP_ON.EXE utility. The two options (second option being the best) for this situation are listed below:
Option 1 – Pressing the
display, letting you know that pressing

3500 Flat Panel Industrial PCs
Installing the System into a Panel
The system’s rugged design allows it to be installed in most industrial environments. The system is generally placed in a NEMA 4/4X/12 enclosure to protect against contaminants such as dust, moisture, etc. Metal enclosures also help minimize the effects of electromagnetic radiation that nearby equipment can generate.
Mounting Considerations
Once you have established a location for the 3500, install it in the enclosure according to the instructions that follow:
Select a NEMA rated enclosure and place the unit to allow easy access to the system
ports.
Account for the unit’s depth when choosing the depth of the enclosure.
Provide a NEMA 4 seal by mounting the unit in an approved enclosure that has a 14
gauge (0.075"/1.9mm thick) steel or (0.125"/3.2mm thick) aluminum front face.
Mount the unit in an upright position.
Place the unit at a comfortable working level.
Consider locations of accessories such as AC power outlets and lighting (interior
lighting and windows) for installation and maintenance convenience.
Prevent condensation by installing a thermostat-controlled heater or air conditioner.
To allow for maximum cooling, avoid obstructing the airflow.
Place any fans or blowers close to the heat generating devices. If using a fan, make
sure that outside air is not brought inside the enclosure unless a fabric or other reliable filter is used. This filtration prevents conductive particles or other harmful contaminants from entering the enclosure.
Do not select a location near equipment that generates excessive electromagnetic
interference (EMI) or radio frequency interface (RFI) (equipment such as high power welding machines, induction heating equipment and large motor starters).
Place incoming power line devices (such as isolation or constant voltage
transformers, local power disconnects, and surge suppressers) away from the system. The proper location of incoming line devices keep power wire runs as short as possible and minimizes electrical noise transmitted to the unit.
Make sure the location does not exceed the unit’s shock, vibration, and temperature
specifications.
Install in the rack or panel in such a way as to ensure that it does not cause a hazard
from uneven mechanical loading.
Incorporate a readily accessible disconnect device in the fixed wiring on permanently
connected equipment.
Avoid circuit overloading of the supply circuit.
48
System Power
Using isolation transformers on the incoming AC power line to the system is always a good practice. An isolation transformer is especially desirable in cases in which heavy equipment is likely to introduce noise onto the AC line. The isolation transformer can also serve as a step-down transformer to reduce the incoming line voltage to a desired level. The transformer should have a sufficient power rating (units of volt-amperes) to supply the load adequately.
Proper grounding is essential to all safe electrical installations. Refer to the relevant Federal, State/Provincial, and local electric codes which provides data such as the size and types of conductors, color codes and connections necessary for safe grounding of electrical components. The code specifies that a grounding path must be permanent (no solder), continuous, and able to safely conduct the ground-fault current in the system with minimal impedance (minimum wire required is 18 Awg, 1 mm).
Observe the following practices:
Separate ground wires (P.E. or Protective Earth) from power wires at the point of
entry to the enclosure. To minimize the ground wire length within the enclosure, locate the ground reference point near the point of entry for the plant power supply.
Chapter Three - Installation
All electrical racks or chassis and machine elements should be Earth Grounded in
installations where high levels of electrical noise can be expected. The rack/chassis should be grounded with a ground rod or attached to nearby Earth structure such as a steel support beam. Each different apparatus should be connected to a single Earth Ground point in a “star” configuration with low impedance cable. Scrape away paint and other nonconductive material from the area where a chassis makes contact with the enclosure. In addition to the ground connection made through the mounting bolt or stud, use a one-inch metal braid or size #8 AWG wire to connect between each chassis and the enclosure at the mounting bolt or stud.
Excessive Heat
The units withstand temperatures from 0º to 50ºC. The systems are cooled by convection, in which a vertical column of air is drawn in an upward direction over the surface of its components. To keep the temperature in range, the cooling air at the base of the system must not exceed 50°C. Allocate proper spacing between internal components installed in the enclosure.
When the air temperature is higher than the specified maximum in the enclosure, use a fan or air conditioner to lower the temperature.
Electrical Noise
Electrical noise is seldom responsible for damaging components, unless extremely high energy or high voltage levels are present. However, noise can cause temporary malfunctions that can result in hazardous machine operation in certain applications. Noise may be present only at certain times, may appear as widely spread intervals, or in some cases may exist continuously.
Noise commonly enters through input, output, and power supply lines and may also be coupled through the capacitance between these lines and noise signal carrier lines.
49
3500 Flat Panel Industrial PCs
This usually results from the presence of high voltage or long, close-spaced conductors. When control lines are closely spaced with lines carrying large currents, the coupling of magnetic fields can also occur. Use shielded cables to help minimize noise. Potential noise generators include switching components relays, solenoids, motors, and motor starters.
Refer to the relevant Federal, State/Provincial, and local electric codes which provides data such as the size and types of conductors, color codes and connections necessary for safe grounding of electrical components. It is recommended that the high voltage and low voltage cabling be separated and dressed apart. In particular, the AC cables and switch wiring should not be in the same conduit with all communication cables.
50
Line Voltage Variation
The unit’s power supply is built to operate with output voltage ranges of 90-132 VAC and 180-264 VAC or 20-36 VDC, whichever applies, and still allow the system to function within its operating margin. As long as the incoming voltage is adequate, the power supply provides all the logic voltages necessary to support the processor, memory, and I/O.
In cases in which the installation is subject to unusual AC line variations, use a constant voltage transformer to prevent the system from shutting down too often. However, a first step toward the solution of the line variations is to correct any possible feed problem in the distribution system. If this correction does not solve the problem, use a constant voltage transformer.
The constant voltage transformer stabilizes the input voltage to the 3510/3512 by compensating for voltage changes at the primary in order to maintain a steady voltage at the secondary. When using a constant voltage transformer, check that the power rating is sufficient to supply the unit.
Creating a Power Cable
Chapter Three - Installation
This section describes how to create both an AC and DC power cable.
AC Power Cable
You must create an AC power cable to supply power to units with AC power supplies. You will need the following materials:
A three-position power connector (supplied).
A braid/foil shielded power cable, terminated at power source end, with three 18 (1.0
mm), 16 (1.3 mm), or 14 (1.6 mm) AWG solid or stranded copper wire, rated 80º C or better.

Hazardous Locations Installations
Xycom Automation designed the systems to meet the requirements of Class I, Division 2 Hazardous Locations applications. Division 2 locations are those locations that are normally non-hazardous, but could become hazardous due to accidents that may expose the area to flammable vapors, gases or combustible dusts.
These systems have been designed as non-incendiary devices. They are not intrinsically safe and should never be operated within a Division 1 (normally hazardous) location when installed as described here. Nor should any peripheral interface device attached to these systems be located within Division 1 locations unless approved and/or certified diode barriers are placed in series with each individual signal and DC power line. Any such installations are beyond the bounds of Xycom design intent. Xycom Automation accepts no responsibility for installations of this equipment or any devices attached to this equipment in Division 1 locations.
It is the customer's responsibility, when adding additional cards, that they meet operating conditions for Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations.
Chapter Three - Installation
Note
It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the product is properly rated for the location. If the intended location does not presently have a Class, Division, and Group rating, then users should consult the appropriate authorities having jurisdiction in order to determine the correct rating for that Hazardous Location.
In accordance with Federal, State/Provincial, and Local regulations, all hazardous locations installations should be inspected by the appropriate authority having jurisdiction prior to use. Only technically qualified personnel should install, service, and inspect these systems.

Definitions
The following Class and Division explanations are derived from Article 500 (Sections 5 and 6) of the United States National Fire Protection Agency National Electric Code (NFPA 70, 1990). They are not complete and are included here only for a general description for those not familiar with generic hazardous locations' requirements.
Persons responsible for the installation of this equipment in Hazardous Locations are responsible for ensuring that all relevant codes and regulations related to location rating, enclosure, and wiring are met.
Class I Locations
Class I locations are those in which flammable gases or vapors are or may be present in the air in quantities sufficient to produce explosive or ignitable mixtures.
Class II Locations
Class II locations are those that are, or may become, hazardous because of the presence of combustible dust.
Chapter Three - Installation
Division 1 Locations
A Division 1 location is one in which flammable or ignitable gasses, vapors, or combustible dusts and particles can exist due the following conditions:
Normal operating conditions.
Because of repair, maintenance conditions, leakage, or where mechanical failure or
abnormal operation of machinery or equipment might release or cause explosive or ignitable mixtures to be released or produced.
Combustible dusts of an electrically conductive nature may be present in hazardous
quantities.
Note
Xycom Automation systems are not suitable for installation within Division 1 locations.
Note
Electrical equipment cannot be installed in Division 1 locations unless they are intrinsically safe, installed inside approved explosion-proof enclosures, or installed inside approved purged and pressurized enclosures.
59
3500 Flat Panel Industrial PCs
Division 2 Locations
Division 2 locations are listed below:
Class I volatile flammable liquids or flammable gasses are handled, processed, or
used, but confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in cases of accidental rupture or breakdown of such enclosures or systems, or in case of abnormal operation of equipment.
Ignitable concentrations of Class I vapors or gasses are normally prevented by
positive mechanical ventilation, but which may become hazardous due to mechanical failure of those ventilation systems.
Location is adjacent to a Division 1 location.
Class II combustible dust is not normally in the air in quantities sufficient to produce
explosive or ignitable mixtures. Dust accumulations are normally insufficient to interfere with normal operation of electrical equipment or other apparatus. Combustible dust may be in suspension in the air as a result of the following: malfunctioning of handling or processing equipment; combustible dust accumulations on, or in the vicinity of electrical equipment; may be ignitable by abnormal operation or failure of electrical equipment.
Hazardous Locations Group Ratings
All electrical equipment that is approved for use in hazardous locations must include a group rating. Various flammable and combustible substances are divided into these groups as a function of their individual maximum experimental safe gap (MESG), explosion pressure, and ignition temperature.
Component temperatures and the potential for spark based upon voltage, current, and circuit characteristics, within electrical equipment, will determine what the equipment group rating will be. A device approved for installation within Class I, Group A locations may also be used in Groups B, C, or D.
Approved Class I equipment may not be suitable for Class II installations. Class I includes Groups A, B, C, and D. Class II includes Groups F, and G.
Enclosures
The systems are designed for installation within a clean and dry enclosure for both ordinary and hazardous locations. The front panel meets the requirements of UL and CSA Type 4, 4X, and 12 enclosures. The enclosure used for Class I hazardous locations should have a minimum rating of Type 12 (NEMA 12, IP 5X). However, Type 4 (IP 6X) enclosures are strongly recommended.
Note
60
Warning
The optional floppy disk/keyboard port access door must be closed and latched at all times in order to maintain a proper seal against the intrusion of water and dust.
Panel flatness and rigidity are important if a proper panel seal is to be maintained. If non-metal type enclosures, such as plastic or fiberglass, are to be used, install a rigid metal stiffener behind the front panel. Failure to do so may result in an inadequate panel seal due to flexure of the front panel material between the stud mounts. Tighten the nuts on the mounting studs to 25-inch pounds.
The requirements for enclosure fittings, conduit, and wiring vary according to the specific rating of the location and the type of flammable or combustible material involved. Those requirements are beyond the scope of this document and it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that their installation is compliant with codes and regulations that apply to their specific location. Reference NFPA 70, Article 500 for specific regulations in the United States.
Power Switch
The 3500 systems do not have a power switch. The amount of input power required by these systems classifies the power switch as an incendiary device because the voltage and current across the make/break device are capable of creating a spark.
Chapter Three - Installation
Hazardous locations' regulations require that a power switch rated for ordinary locations may be used if it is located in an area specified as non-hazardous. However, limits in cable length between the workstation and the power switch may apply. Otherwise the switch must be compliant with Class I, Division 1 requirements (intrinsically safe). These switches are built in a manner that prevents the possibility of a spark when contacts are made or broken.
Use suitable UL listed and/or CSA Certified Class I, Division 1 switches in hazardous locations. These switches are available from a wide number of sources. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the power switch selected for their installation has the correct hazardous locations rating for the location in which it is installed.
Cable Connections
Division 2 hazardous location regulations require that all cable connections be provided with adequate strain relief and positive interlock. Never connect or disconnect a cable while power is applied at either end of the cable.
Communication Cable Interface
All communication cables should include a chassis ground shield. This shield should include both copper braid and aluminum foil. The D-sub style connector housing should be a metal conductive type (e.g., molded zinc) and the ground shield braid should be well terminated directly to the connector housing. Do not use a shield drain wire.
The outer diameter of the cable must be suited to the inner diameter of the cable connector strain relief in order to ensure that a reliable degree of strain relief is maintained. Always secure the D-Sub connectors to the workstation mating connectors via the two screws located on both sides.
61
3500 Flat Panel Industrial PCs
Never connect or disconnect the communication cables while power is applied at either end of the cable. This may result in an incendiary spark. Permanent damage to the workstation communication components may occur.
Operation and Maintenance
The systems have been designed for compliance with relevant spark ignition tests. However, please note that the workstation front panel contrast adjustment tactile switches and keyboard connector are the only make/break components intended to be exercised by the operator in the course of normal operation.
In order to maintain a safe condition, never use an external keyboard or mouse when the unit is operating in the presence of a hazardous environment.
Warning
Warning
With respect to Hazardous Location installations, always observe the following rules:
1. Always install the workstations within an enclosure suitable for the specific
application. General purpose enclosures may be acceptable for Class I applications but are never acceptable for Class II applications. Type 4 (IP 65) enclosures are recommended even when not required by regulations.
2. If present, keep enclosure doors or openings closed at all times, to avoid the
accumulation of foreign matter inside the workstation.
3. Never subject the unit to any installation or service procedures unless power is
known to be removed and the area is known to be non-hazardous. This includes the installation or removal of power cables, communication cables, or removal of the rear cover of the unit.
4. Only technically qualified service personnel should perform all installation and
service. These workstations are designed to require no service in the course of normal operation by an operator.

Chapter 5 - Keypad Utility for the 3535 KPM
The 3535KPM Keypad Utility lets users redefine all keypad keys with new scan codes using utility software. Use an external full-stroke PC/AT keyboard to access the utility (you cannot redefine the keyboard).
Note
The keypad switch arrays are disabled while the k ey pad utility is running.
Loading the Keypad Utility
Note
You need MS-DOS 3.2 or higher to run the keypad utility. It will not work if you are running Windows 95 or Windows NT. However, the keypad utility will run under Windows 95 in DOS mode.
You can run this utility directly from the disk or copy it onto your hard drive. To run the keypad utility from the disk, change the directory to the appropriate drive and type kputil. To load the utility onto your hard drive, create a subdirectory for the files, and copy all the files on the disk into that subdirectory. Enter the subdirectory and type kputil.
Using the Keypad Utility
The keypad utility uses a menu bar and pull-down menu system. All menu bars are displayed across the top of the screen. “Xycom Automation KP Utility” and the current menu titles are shown at the bottom of the screen (see Figure 4-1).
A full-stroke keyboard is needed to enter keystrokes while recording a new key macro, editing an existing macro, and entering utility commands. You can redefine all keys on the keypads. While the utility is running, the keypads are disabled.
Dialog boxes appear for user prompts and to display error and user advice messages. Two keys allow you to exit the menus:

Startup
Type kputil to run the full keypad utility.
Utility Batch Mode
You can also use a batch file to reprogram keypads. This feature is useful if you wish to reprogram many units with customized keypad macros without having to enter the full keypad utility for each unit. Once the full utility has been used to create and save keypad macros, the files containing these macros can be included on a disk with the keypad utility and then used to reprogram other units from a batch file.
The command keypad filename runs the keypad utility batch mode. “Filename” is the file containing the new keypad macros. The filename extension must be included.

Files Menu
Chapter Five – Keypad Utility for 3535
You can save files containing keypad macro sets (a macro for each key) on disk, and then loaded them into memory to view, edit, teach, or download to the keyboard controller. Some of these files may be included in the utility package for use in reconfiguring the keypads for different software packages, and as templates for defining completely new keypad macro sets.
When you choose File, a pull-down menu will display the following choices: Open, Close, Save, Save As, Delete, and Exit. The following table describes the menu commands.
Command Description
Open Opens a file that contains a macro set for the keypad and loads the
contents into memory. Any macro set in memory is overwritten. Once loaded, the macro set is available to edit, view, teach, or download to the keyboard controller.
Close Clears the macro set from memory and closes the file from which they
came.
Save Copies the macro set from memory back into its original file. The original
file contents are overwritten.
Save As Creates a new file under the specified name and copies the macro set
from memory into it. For example, to define different sets of codes, save
each set under a different name and download the one you wish to use. Delete Deletes a file. Exit Returns to the Main Menu.
NOTE: The 3535KPM uses 3515KP files.
Macros Keypad Type Menu
When you select Macros, a pull down menu displays and provides the following choices: Function Keys, Alpha Keys, and Exit. Also, another pull down menu displays the following choices once the Macros menu is chosen: Exit, View, Teach, and Edit.
You must have a macro file in memory before the Macros Menu is available. To load a macro file, open a file or upload macros.
Command Description
Function Keys Selects the function keys on the keypad to either view, edit, or teach. Alpha Keys Selects the alpha keys on the keypad to either view, edit, or teach. Exit Returns to the main menu.

Macros Edit Menu
Command Description
Exit Returns to the Main Menu. View Allows you to view, but not edit, the macro for the selected key. When View is chosen,
the Exit option is displayed on the menu bar and a graphic representation of the chosen keypad is shown. Select Exit from the View Menu to return to the Macros Menu. To select a key to view, use the arrow keys to position the cursor on the desired key and press line displays each keycode as the keys it represents on the full-stroke keyboard. Special labels are used for certain keys (e.g., Spc for space bar, UAr for up arrow, and bk for the break code prefix). The code line is displayed in either Hex or decimal. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the ASCII and code lines.
While viewing the macro, the menu bar displays two options: Exit and Hex/Decimal. Exit returns to the View Menu, while Hex/Decimal toggles between displaying the macro in hex or decimal format. When Hex is chosen, the keycodes are displayed as hexadecimal value scan codes. When Decimal is chosen, the keycodes are displayed as the decimal equivalent of the hex codes.
For example, the macro abc would be displayed as 1C F0 1C 32 F0 32 21 F0 21 in hex, and 28 240 28 50 240 50 33 240 33 in decimal.
Teach Allows you to record up to 105 keystrokes in a macro. When selected, a graphic
representation of the keypad currently in memory displays. Menu bar choices are Exit, ASCII/Hex/Decimal, and Click ON/OFF. Exit returns to the Macros menu. ASCII/Hex/Decimal specifies the format to display the keystrokes as they are entered. Default is ASCII. Click is not supported.

Chapter 6 - Maintenance
The 3500 is designed to withstand the harsh environment of the factory floor. Routine maintenance can help keep your system in good operating condition. Preventive maintenance consists of several basic procedures that will greatly reduce the chance of system malfunction. Schedule preventive maintenance along with the regular equipment maintenance to minimize down time.
Preventive Maintenance
Here are some preventive measures you can take:
Clean the monitor screen using a non-residue cleaner such as a mild window
cleaning solution or CRT screen cleaner. Take care not to scratch the screen face.
Clean or change the fan filter periodically to ensure that the air circulating in the
unit is clean. Wash the filter with warm water and dish soap, and let it air dry. Do not scrub the filter, and do not re-install it into the unit until it is completely dry.
Chapter Six - Maintenance
Base your maintenance schedule on the type of environment the system is in (i.e., if
the area is dusty, you should schedule maintenance more often than if it is a dry, clean area). Check the filter often to determine if it needs to be changed ahead of schedule.
Remove dust and dirt from PC components. If dust builds up on heat sinks and
circuitry, an obstruction of heat dissipation could cause the unit to malfunction. If dust reaches the electronic boards, a short circuit could occur.
Check the connections to I/O modules, especially in environments where shock could
loosen the connections. Check to see that all plugs, sockets, terminal strips, and module connections are solid.
Remove unnecessary articles, such as drawings or manuals, from the unit. They can
obstruct air flow and create hot spots, which causes the system to malfunction.
Do not place noise-generating equipment near the 3510/3512.
Stock spare parts to minimize down time resulting from part failure. Spare parts
stocked should be 10 percent of the number of each unit used. Main CPU cards should have one spare each. Each power supply should have a back up. In applications where immediate operation of a failed system is required, you may need to stock an entire spare computer module. Refer to the Spare Parts List in this chapter.
Replace the module with the correct type. If the new module solves the problem but
the failure reoccurs, check for inductive loads that may be generating voltage and current spikes and may require external suppression.
