3.1 Overview of Hardware Installation and Upgrading
The panel PC consists of a PC-based computer that is housed in a plastic
front and rear panel. Any maintenance or hardware upgrades can be com-
pleted after removing both panels. Meanwhile your HDD, SDRAM, CPU
are all readily accessible by removing the CPU and heatsink cover and
HDD bracket..
Warning!
3.2 Installing the 2.5" Hard Disk Drive (HDD)
You can attach one enhanced Integrated Device Electronics (IDE) hard
disk drive to the panel PC's internal controller which uses a PCI local-bus
interface. The advanced IDE controller supports faster data transfer and
allows the IDE hard drive to exceed 528 MB. The following are instruc-
tions for installation:
1.
Detach the HDD bracket by unscrewing the four screws on the top
of the HDD bracket.
2.
Place the HDD inside the HDD bracket and tighten four screws
from both sides of the HDD bracket.
3.
The HDD cable (1 x 44-pin to 1 x 44-pin) is next to the HDD
bracket. Connect the HDD cable to the HDD. Make sure that the
red wire corresponds to Pin 1 on the connector, which is labelled on
the board. Plug the other end of the cable into the HDD, with Pin 1
on the cable corresponding to Pin 1 on the HDD.
