DA-660-8/16-LX
Quick Installation Guide
Third Edition, April 2009
1. Overview
DA-660 products are RISC-based ready-to-run embedded computers
designed for industrial data acquisition applications. They feature 8 or 16
RS-232/422/485 serial ports and dual Ethernet ports based on the Intel
XScale IXP422 communication processor. The casing is a standard 1U,
19-inch wide rack-mounted rugged enclosure. This robust,
rack-mountable mechanism design provides the hardened protection
needed for industrial environment applications, and lets users easily
install DA-660 on a standard 19-inch rack. Using DA-660 products, you
can easily build a control system with distributed architecture for
embedded technologies, such as SCADA systems, plant floor automation,
and power electricity monitoring applications.

4. Installing Your DA-660
Desktop Mounting
Place your DA-660 on a clean, flat, well-ventilated desktop. For better
ventilation, attach the 4 pads from the desktop kit to the bottom of the
unit, and leave some space between the DA-660 and other equipment. Do
not place equipment or objects on top of the unit, as this can cause
damage to the product.
Rack Mounting.
DA-660 can be mounted on a standard 19-inch rack. Use the enclosed
pair of L-shaped metal plates and screws to fasten your DA-660 to the
rack cabinet. There are two options to do this. You can lock either the
front or the rear panel of the DA-660 to the front side of the rack. Each
L-shaped plate has 6 holes, leaving two outer or inner holes open for your
convenience.
5. Connecting Your
Power Connector
Connect the 100-240 VAC/VDC power line to DA-660's power
connector. If the power is properly supplied, the Ready LED on the front
panel will glow a solid green when the OS is ready.

Press the "Reset" button on the front panel continuously for at least 5
seconds to load the factory default configuration. After the factory default
configuration has been loaded, the system will reboot automatically. The
Ready LED will blink for the first 5 seconds, and then maintain a steady
glow once the system has rebooted.
LCM Screen
DA-660 has an LCM screen on the front panel. The LCM can display 16
columns and 2 rows of text. After the DA-660 successfully boots up, the
LCM will display the model name and firmware version as shown:
