10 P1515 Quick Installation
CONNECTING PERIPHERALS
The user can use the I/O interfaces located at the backside of the chassis to
connect external peripheral devices, such as a mouse, a keyboard, a monitor,
serial devices or parallel printer etc. Before connection, make sure that the
computer and the peripheral devices are turned off.
Connecting an external CRT
P1515 has a 15-pin analog RGB
interface connector located at the rear
side of the chassis for connection a
secondary display. The system can
support simultaneous display on both its LCD display and on the external CRT
display. Note that the preferred resolution is 1024 x 768 because this is what the
LCD Panel needs to operate full screen.
External Serial Ports

The P1515 logic board supports
four onboard serial ports, all COM ports supports RS-232.
The external COM1, COM2, COM3 and COM4 are all D-SUB 9-pin connectors.

1. Turn off the Panel PC system and the serial devices.
2. Attach the interface cable of the serial device to the 9-pin D-SUB serial
connector. Be sure to fasten the retaining screws.
3. Turn on the computer and the attached serial devices.

environment to recognize the new attached devices.
