AX3000 standard keyboard The AX3000 is totally designed and manufactured by Axel. The terminal's electronics is contained within a slim base unit which provides connections for a VGA or SVGA monitor, keyboard, system printer, serial devices and Ethernet network.
Safety Notices 1 - SAFETY NOTICES Check AC voltage from the wall outlet is inside 220-240 Volts range. The wall outlet used must be reached easily and as nearest as possible to the AX3000 Terminal to connect or disconnect the power cord. Make sure to power off all devices before connecting or disconnecting any one of them (monitor VGA cable, keyboard and serial or parallel cables).
Installation 2 - INSTALLATION This chapter provides information and instructions to install the AX3000 Model 60E. 2.1 - DESCRIPTION A green LED, located on the face plate, indicates when the AX3000 is powered The AX3000 has the following connectors and switches on the rear panel: - power switch, - connector for the external power transformer cord, - connector for a VGA or SVGA monitor (colour or monochrome),...
Installation Make sure the AX3000 and monitor power switches are in the OFF (0) position before connecting cables to the back panel. 1 : On 0 : Off 2.2.1 - Monitor and keyboard Plug in the VGA monitor cable, the AT-compatible keyboard cable and the optional mouse cable to the dedicated connectors on the terminal back panel: SVGA KEYB...
Installation Note: when the terminal is installed in a cabinet or rack, it is essential to maintain air circulation around the VGA/SVGA monitor. 2.2.2 - Ethernet Connection Plug the 10Base-T ethernet cable into the socket labelled 10BT on the back of the AX3000 (see chapter 4.1 for technical specifications and pin assignments).
To comply with EMC regulations, the serial cables must be shielded. 2.2.4 - AC Power Connection An Axel external power transformer must be used, to convert mains voltage at the wall outlet to low voltage for the AX3000 Model 35.
Installation Plug the monitor power cable into a grounded AC mains power socket. The monitor does not require low voltage power. 2.2.5 - Power On The power switch on the rear panel controls the power supply to the AX3000. 1 : On 0 : Off The green LED on the front of the terminal should light, and a single audible beep should be heard, to indicate that the AX3000 terminal is powered up and...
Quick Installation 3 - SETTING-UP THE AX3000 This chapter describes the procedure for the TCP/IP AX3000 terminal. 3.1 - QUICK SET-UP For a fast and reliable installation, the AX3000 provides a quick set-up function. This Quick Set-Up box is automatically called when the AX3000 is powered up for the first time.
Quick Installation - Enable DHCP: two possible values: - yes: the DHCP protocol is run when the set-up is exited. The DHCP function is automatically set to get both the AX3000 IP address and other DHCP options (netmask, default router, etc). - no: parameters are manually entered (in addition, AX3000 Name (FQDN) is not accessible).

Quick Installation To set the RDP session, enter the AX3000 Set-Up and select the [Configuration]→[Terminal]→[RDP Connection] menu. The following box is displayed: RDP connection parameters: - Windows Host Name - Windows IP Address: if this field is left blank, DNS will be used to resolved the hostname.
Quick Installation - No: the AX3000 requests a non-encrypted connection. - Bitmap Cache: enabling the bitmap cache function allows the AX3000 to store images (icon, buttons, etc) locally. This can both improve the AX3000 performance and decrease network traffic. - Mouse Accelerator: if 'yes', the AX3000 speeds up the mouse cursor.
Connector Pin Assignments 4 - CONNECTOR PIN ASSIGNMENTS This chapter describes the connector pin assignments for the different ports of the AX3000 Model 60E. 4.1 - ETHERNET PORT RJ45 (10BT) Recommended wiring is a non-shielded twisted-pair cable (UTP), category 3 or 5 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 RJ45 connector (Model 60E rear panel)
Connector Pin Assignments b - AX3000 Connected to an Ethernet Controller Ethernet Board AX3000 Model 65E TX+ 1 < > < > IMPORTANT: the cable is composed of two twisted pairs. The two wires TX+ / TX- must belong to one pair and the two wires RX+ / RX- must belong to the other pair.
Connector Pin Assignments 4.3 - KEYBOARD INTERFACE The AX3000 keyboard interface is a Mini-DIN connector. To connect a keyboard which has a DIN connector, use a DIN-to-Mini-DIN adaptor: Signal name Data Ground + 5 V DC Clock 4.4 - MOUSE INTERFACE The AX3000 mouse interface is a Mini-DIN connector: Signal name Data...
Connector Pin Assignments 4.5 - VIDEO INTERFACE The AX3000 video interface is VGA and SVGA compatible: VGA/SVGA connector (Model 60E, rear panel) Pin Signal name Green Blue Ground Ground Ground Ground Ground Ground Horizontal sync. Vertical sync. Installation Guide - Model 60E...
Connector Pin Assignments 4.6 - PARALLEL INTERFACE The AX3000 terminal Model 60E is equipped with a parallel port. Parallel connector (Model 60E, rear panel) Signal Name Strobe Data 0 Data 1 Data 2 Data 3 Data 4 Data 5 Data 6 Data 7 ACK (Acknowledge) Busy...
Problem Solving 5 - PROBLEM SOLVING This chapter describes some of the problems, that may occur during installation of the AX3000 Model 60E, and offers possible solutions. - THE VGA MONITOR VERTICAL SYNC IS LOST Care must be taken with the VGA monitor. The default VGA frequency used by the AX3000 is 72 Hertz.
Page 22
Problem Solving - RDP CONNECTION REFUSED When the RDP connection is established, the following message can be displayed: ERROR: The server encryption level is not correct This message indicates the Windows encryption level is not set to 'Low'. Run the "Terminal Services Configuration" utility (on the 'Administrative Tools' folder) and set the 'Encryption Level' to 'Low'.
Page 23
Problem Solving Failure to light when the terminal is switched on may be due to any of the following: - the Ethernet cable is disconnected at the far end, - the device (host or hub), to which the network cable is connected, is not switched on, - there is a fault on the Ethernet cable or the cable is wired with incorrect pin assignments.
