The modular panel PC comprises two parts: a box module and a panel module. The assembly of these two parts is easy thanks to DFI's ADP (Adaptive Display Platform) innovation, which makes the box modules and the panel modules interchangeable. Please use the following procedure to assemble these two parts.
Chapter 3 Removing the Chassis Cover Lift the cover upward to open the system. Please follow these guidelines before performing any installation procedures: Make sure the system and all other peripherals connected to it have been powered off. Disconnect all power cords and cables. The 6 mounting screws on the left and right sides and bottom of the system are used to secure the cover to the chassis.
Chapter 3 Installing a SODIMM Grasp the module by its edges and align the memory’s notch with the socket’s notch. Then in- sert the memory into the socket at an angle and push it down until you feel a click. The system supports two DDR4 SODIMM socket.
Chapter 3 Installing a 2.5” SATA Drive Connect the other end of the SATA data and power cable to the SATA data and power connectors on the system board respectively. The system can accommodate one SATA drive. Please use the following procedure to install a SATA drive in the system.
Chapter 3 Installing a SIM Card Installing a Mini PCIe and SIM Card Open the Mini SIM card socket by pushing the white latch inward. The system board is equipped with 2 Mini PCIe slots with Mini SIM card sockets to support a variety of wireless LAN and mobile broadband communication modules.
Chapter 3 Installing an M.2 Card The onboard M.2 Type 2280 connector (M Key) supports PCIe NVMe modules up to PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 bandwidth. Note that only SKUs with Intel QM175 Chipset support M.2 socket. ® To install an M.2 card, insert the bottom edge of the M.2 card into the connector, and then secure the card to the standoff with the provided mounting screw.
