3.5.1 AT Power Mode
With the AT mode selected, the power is controlled by a central power unit rather than a
power switch. The AFL3-W07A-AL panel PC turns on automatically when the power is
connected. The AT mode benefits a production line to control multiple panel PCs from a
central management center and other applications including:

ATM

Self-service kiosk

Plant environment monitoring system

Factory automation platform

Manufacturing shop flow
3.5.2 ATX Power Mode
With the ATX mode selected, the AFL3-W07A-AL panel PC goes in a standby mode when
it is turned off. The panel PC can be easily turned on via network or a power switch in
standby mode. Remote power control is perfect for advertising applications since the
broadcasting time for each panel PC can be set individually and controlled remotely. Other
possible application includes

Security surveillance

Point-of-Sale (POS)

Advertising terminal
