Getting Started
2.1
Unpacking the System
After unpacking, check whether there are any transport or other damages on the
system.
2.2
Configuring the Hardware
Check your hardware requirements before mounting the BL50S, since most
modifications are difficult or even impossible to do when the box PC is mounted.
The following check list gives an overview on what you might want to configure.
For installing the components mentioned below, the BL50S has to be opened.
PCI Express Mini Cards
One PCI Express Mini Card for wireless functions can be installed in the
BL50S. MEN offers an LTE (4G) and a WLAN card as an accessory.
Antenna connectors
Two antennas can be installed at the BL50S’s front panel (such as SMA, reverse
SMA, QMA, FME etc). MEN offers an HF antenna cable with U.FL connector
to RP-SMA connector as an accessory.
SD card
The BL50S is equipped with one SD card slot. MEN provides a 4 GB SD card
as an accessory (other memory sizes are available on request).
For installing SA-Adapters the front panel has to be removed and
special care must be taken to realign the connectors and the LEDs
precisely. You should choose the SA-Adapters before ordering the box
PC so that the SA-Adapters can be installed at MEN.
