2.3 Running the BIOS Setup Program
Your POC127 is likely to have been properly set up and configured by your dealer prior to
delivery. You may still find it necessary to use the BIOS (Basic Input-Output System) setup
program to change system configuration information, such as the current date and time or
your type of hard drive. The setup program is stored in read-only memory. It can be
accessed either when you turn on or reset the panel PC, by pressing the " Crtl+Alt+Del " key
on your keyboard immediately after powering on the computer.
The settings you specify with the setup program are recorded in a special area of memory
called CMOS RAM. This memory is backed up by a battery so that it will not be erased when
you turn off or reset the system. Whenever you turn on the power, the system reads the
settings stored in CMOS RAM and compares them to the equipment check conducted during
the power on self-test (POST). If an error occurs, an error message will be displayed on
screen, and you will be prompted to run the setup program.
2.4 Installing System Software
Recent releases of operating systems from major vendors include setup
programs which load automatically and guide you through hard disk preparation
and operating system installation. The guidelines below will help you determine
the steps necessary to install your operating system on the panel PC hard drive.
Note! Some distributors and system integrators may have
already pre-installed system software prior to shipment of your panel PC.
If required, insert your operating system's installation or setup diskette into the
external diskette drive until the release button pops out.
3.
The BIOS supports system boots up directly from the CD-ROM drive. You may
also insert your system installation CD-ROM disk into your external CD-ROM
drive.
4.
Power on or reset the system by pressing the “F2 or Del” key to boot into BIOS
menu and adjust the boot device sequence.
5.
You can also press F12 key when booting; a bootable device popup menu will
appear, you can select bootable device that you want. The Point-of-Care
Terminal will automatically load the operating system from the diskette or CD-
ROM.
6.
If you are presented with the opening screen of a setup or installation program,
follow the instructions on screen. The setup program will guide you through
preparation of your hard drive, and installation of the operating system.
2.5 Installing the Drivers
After installing your system software, you will be able to set up the Chipset,
Graphics, Ethernet, Audio, and Touchscreen functions from your own external
CD-ROM drive. All the drivers except the CD-ROM drive driver are stored in a
CD-ROM disc entitled "Drivers and Utilities."
7.
The standard automatic installation procedures for installing the Chipset,
Graphics, Audio, Ethernet, TXE and Touch drivers are described in Chapter 3.
8.
The various drivers and utilities in the CD-ROM disc have their own text files
which help users install the drivers and understand their functions. These files
are a very useful supplement to the information in this manual.

environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be consid-
ered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the POC127 is used exceeds the
applicable RF compliance level above, the POC127 should be observed to verify normal
operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be nec-essary,
such as reorienting or relocating the unit.
b Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
Operation and Safety
Information
3.1 General Safety Guide
For your own safety and that of your equipment, always take the following
precautions.
Disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug, not the cord), from your
computer if any of the following conditions exists:
The power cord or plug becomes frayed or otherwise damaged
You spill something into the case
Your computer has been dropped or the case has been otherwise
damaged
You suspect that your computer needs service or repair
You want to clean the computer or screen
You want to remove/install any parts
3.2 Protecting Your Optical Drive
To keep your optical drive working properly:
Position your computer so that the drive tray doesn't bump into
anything when it opens.
Close the drive when you're not using it.
Do not put anything on the drive tray when it is open.
Do not touch the optical drive lens with your fingers. Do not wipe the
lens with a paper towel or other abrasive surface.
3.3 Thermal
The vent hole of the POC127 rear cover functions as a cooling air flow inlet
and outlet. These air inlets and outlets transfer heat from inside the
computer to the cooler air outside. Do not block these holes/vents with any
soft material.
When using your POC127 system, it is normal for the rear metal heatsink
to get warm. The rear metal heatsink of the POC127 functions as a cooling
surface that transfers heat from inside the computer to the cooler air
outside. Do not block this heatsink with any soft material.
Warning! Do not place your POC127 system on a pillow or other soft
material when it is on, as the material may block the airflow
and cause the com-puter to overheat.
3.4 Disconnect the Power
The only way to disconnect power completely is to unplug the adapter
power cord. Make sure at least one end of the power cord is within easy
reach so that you can unplug the computer when you need to.
Warning! Your AC cord came equipped with a three-wire grounding plug
(a plug that has a third grounding pin). This plug will fit only a
grounded AC out-let. If you are unable to insert the plug into
an outlet because the outlet is not grounded, contact a
licensed electrician to replace the outlet with a properly
grounded outlet. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding
plug.
Warning! Never push objects of any kind into this product through the openings in the case.
Doing so may be dangerous and result in fire or a dangerous electric shock.
Never place anything on system case before turning off the computer.
Never turn on your computer unless all of its internal and external parts are in
place.
Operating the computer when it is open or missing parts can be danger-ous and can
dama
A.1 Install VESA Mounting
The POC127 also provides standard VESA mounting to help system
integrators conveniently integrate the panel PC into their system.
Never use mounting brackets except as provided by Advantech to prevent
unreliable mounting of the POC127. VESA mount installation should be
carried out by a professional technician; please contact a service technician
or your retailer if you need this service.
Installation instructions follow:
1. First attach wall-mounting to the heat-sink of the POC127, securing it
in place with the four Phillips-head screws provided.
2. Mount the unit on the wall, stand or other flat surface.
Warning! Be sure to secure the screws of the mounting bracket tightly. A
loose joint between the POC127 and mounting bracket may
create danger of injury.
