QUICK START GUIDE

First ensure that you are familiar with the contents of the section "Precautions".  It contains important
information to avoid damage to the unit.

The unit may be used freestanding, but it is recommended that it be securely mounted to avoid accidental
damage.  The actual mounting details will vary depending upon the application.

There are four M3 tapped holes on each end of the chassis for mounting brackets, etc.  Alternatively there are
four M3 tapped holes on the underside of the chassis for direct mounting. Do not use screws longer than those
supplied to mount the unit, otherwise internal damage may result.  If alternative screws are used, please ensure
that they do not enter the chassis by more than 5mm, otherwise internal damage may result.

Particular mounting arrangements exist for NEC plasma displays (these are detailed in the section
"Installation").  Others will be available.

If the unit is to be used freestanding fit the adhesive synthetic rubber feet to the base.  These will prevent the
unit slipping on a smooth surface.

Connect the display to the VGA connector, and connect any other signals, e.g. LAN.  Connect a PS/2 mouse
and keyboard to the unit.

Connect the power lead to a suitable AC power source.  It is recommended that the supply be fused at 5A.

Press the 'Power On' button and check that the unit boots up.

If your system was not supplied with an operating system pre-installed, load an operating system and drivers.
The section "Software Configuration" contains details for the common operating systems.

Set up the required video display parameters.

The system is now ready to have the applications software loaded.

If the mouse and keyboard are to be removed for normal operation, shut down the computer and switch off the
power before removing them.
