Do not use disinfectants that contain phenol. Do not autoclave or clean the POC terminal or peripherals with strong aromatic, chlori- nated, ketone, ether, or esther solvents, nor sharp tools or abra- sives. Never immerse electrical connectors in water or other liquid. POC-WP242 User Manual...
Before setting up POC-WP242, familiarize yourself with the locations and purposes of the controls, drives, connections, and ports, as illustrated in the figures below. When placed upright on a desktop, the POC-WP242 front panel appears as shown in Figure 2.1.
2.1.3 Rear View Located at the bottom of the rear of the POC terminal is a recessed I/O section, as shown below. (1) PCIe x4 card slot (2) Equipotential terminal pin (3) 1 x RS-232/422/485 (isolated) serial port (4) 2 x USB 3.0 (5) 2 x USB 2.0 (6) 1 x VGA port (7) 1 x RS-232 (isolated)
Connect the 3-pin male plug of the power cord to an electrical outlet. Figure 2.2 Connecting a Power Cord POC-WP242 uses an IEC 60320 C5 coupler power cord. Users are reminded to pur- chase the correct power cord for your power outlet.
Connect the grounding cable plug to the equipotential terminal pin. Running the BIOS Setup Program The POC-WP242 is likely to have been properly set up and configured by your dealer prior to delivery. Nonetheless, you may still find it necessary to use the Basic Input- Output System (BIOS) setup program to adjust the system information, such as the date/time or hard drive type.
The setup program will guide users through the hard drive preparation and OS installation processes. Troubleshooting If any of the following system function abnormalities occur, contact Advantech or your local sales representative: Failure to power on Failure to power off...

To assess the electromagnetic environment caused by fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location where POC-WP242 is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level explained above, the terminal should be observed to verify normal operation.
Introduction The POC-WP242 supports single-key driver installation. This allows users to install all the system drivers by clicking just one button. Warning! Use a clean OS for this single-key installation function. Otherwise, an unexpected error may occur. Windows Driver List Refer to the specific OS version (Win 7 32/64 bit, Win 8) to ensure the correct drivers are installed.
Do not block the holes/ vents with any material. When the POC-WP242 is in operation, it is normal for the rear metal heatsink to become warm. The POC-WP242’s rear metal heatsink functions as a cooling surface that dissipates heat from inside the computer into the cooler air outside.
Handle POC-WP242 with care. This POC terminal is made from metal, glass, and plastic and equipped with sensitive internal electronic components. Do not use an obviously damaged POC-WP242 terminal, such as one with a cracked screen, as this may result in injury.
