Panel PC 670 – Windows XP
The Panel PC 670/870, in centralized design, is equipped with a front side USB
interface on the operating unit and two more on the rear side integrated in the
computer unit. In its decentralized design, the Panel PC 670/870 is also
equipped with a rear side USB interface in the decentralized operating unit.
The USB interface is a flexible and easy way to use standard USB peripheral
components.
In this way, for example, an external USB-compliant keyboard and mouse can
be connected. If the USB-capable keyboard is also equipped with an external
USB port (USB hub), other USB-capable devices (e.g. mouse) can be
connected to it.

When installing a USB device for the first time, please note that the device
