Advantech PPC-123, User Manual

Page: 19 / 174

5 Chapter 1
Appendix D includes all pin assignments on the connectors.
Appendix E helps users install the panel PC, which is mountable in a
variety of ways.
If you are a commercial user and the panel PC unit you bought is a com-
plete set with CPU, hard disk drive, SDRAM, CD-ROM drive, floppy
disk drive and PCMCIA expansion slots included, you may only need to
read Chapters 1 through 3 regarding hardware operation. For additional
drivers and BIOS setup information, you should read Chapters 6 through
12. (Chapter 11 is for users who want information about the optional
touchscreen.) If you want to upgrade your system, you may follow the
instructions in Chapters 4 and 5. If you are a system integrator who wants
to integrate the panel PC into your system, you can refer to appendices A
through E for information such as pin assignments and how to fully disas-
semble the panel PC.
