Installation Guidelines

1. 1
   Prepare Mounting Location: Ensure the panel cutout dimensions are correct and the mounting surface is clean, flat, and can support the weight of the unit. Verify adequate clearance for ventilation and cable routing behind the panel.
2. 2
   Mount the Unit: Insert the Panel PC into the cutout from the front. Secure it from the rear using the provided mounting clamps. Tighten the clamp screws evenly in a cross-pattern to ensure a uniform seal against the panel gasket. Do not overtighten.
3. 3
   Establish Ground Connection: Connect the chassis ground terminal on the rear of the Panel PC to the cabinet's protective earth (PE) busbar using a low-impedance conductor. A secure and reliable ground connection is critical for safety and noise immunity.
4. 4
   Connect Power: With the main power source de-energized, connect the supplied mains cable to the power input on the Panel PC. Ensure the source voltage matches the 115-230 V rating of the unit.
5. 5
   Connect Peripherals: Connect all required communication cables (e.g., Ethernet, serial) and I/O devices (e.g., keyboard, mouse). Ensure all connectors are fully seated and secured. Power on the system only after all connections are complete and the cabinet is closed.
