NOTICE
| Power Supply
Disturbance of the proper operation
♦ The device must be operated with protective low voltage (< 28.8 VDC).
WARNING
****| Dropping a device
Injuries and bruises to the legs and / or feet
♦ Wear safety shoes
Note for the installation site
This device is not designed for outdoor use.
Make sure that the ambient temperature and humidity are within the ranges
which a fied under Environmental Conditions.
Do not install the device directly in the sunlight.
Make sure that the device is installed so that is accessible for the operator.
Installation instructions
Check the package contents for any visible damage and for completeness. In
case of damage, do not install the device and contact the Christ Service.
4.1 Torque
All screws must be tightened with the following torques.
Screw | Torque |
---|---|
M3 | 1.0 Nm |
M4 | 2.3 Nm |
4.2 Mounting
Step 1:
Completely unscrew all four nuts on the back of the device.
Step 2:
Push the threaded bolts through an assembly jig.
Step 3:
Screw all four nuts back onto the threaded bolts. The tightening torque is
determined by the customer.
4.2.1 Dismounting the cover plate
The cover plate can only be dismounted if it is not blocked. Step 1:
Loosen all six screws marked in blue on the back of the device and store them
together with the serrated lock washer.
Step 2:
Remove cover plate.
4.2.2 Mounting the cover plate
Step 1:
Attach cover plate.
Step 2:
Screw on all six screws marked in blue together with the serrated lock
washers.
4.2.3 Replacing the cable grommets
Suitable cable grommets can be found on the icotek homepage:
https://www.icotek.com/en/products/cable-grommets/qt
If additional cables are routed out of the enclosure from the concealed
interfaces, the cablegrommets must be removed and replaced with suitable cable
grommets for the corresponding cable diameters. The enclosure is designed for
cable grommets from the manufacturer icotek.
To replace the cable grommets, they can be removed from the recess and pushed
in. The flat surface of the cable grommets must face the front of the device!
Commissioning
To put the device into operation, connect the power supply to the unit.
The device starts.
Further steps for commissioning are not necessary.
5.1 Function of the power button
If the device has a power button, it behaves according to the following
standard.
When the device is plugged into the power supply, the device boots up without
having to press the power button.
If the power button is pressed while the device is running, the device shuts
down.
If the power button is pressed while the device is not running, the device
starts up. The power supply must be present at the device.
Notice:
A different behaviour may occur if the device does not have the standard
configuration.
5.2 Unusual situations
Under certain circumstances, the unit may behave in an unusual way. These are
listed below.
5.2.1 Sluggish touch behavior
Description of error:
The touch´s functionality is affected. The touch only triggers irregularly and
behaves slug- gishly.
Description:
This behavior can be caused by the power supply unit if there is no conductive
connection be- tween the PE of the primary side and the GND of the secondary
side.
Solution:
A power supply unit must be used with a conductive connection between the PE
of the primary side and the GND of the secondary side.
Software
The Software chapter describes settings and functions that may be required to
use the device.
6.1 BIOS Basic Settings
AMI BIOS ROM has built-in settings program that allows users to make basic
settings. This information is stored in a battery supported CMOS RAM, so it
remains stored even when there is no power supply.
Accessing the BIOS works by pressing the “Del” key several times while the
device is booting.
The following tabs in the BIOS enable various settings.
Main | Set date |
---|---|
Advanced | Make advanced BIOS settings like: COM, ACPI, etc. |
Chipset | SATA and RST configuration |
Security | Set administrator password |
Boot | Set Boot Option |
Save & Exit | Save the settings made and initiate a restart. (Also possible |
with the F4 key on the keyboard)
Table 12: BIOS
Pressing F3 and confirming the query “Load Optimized Defaults?” with “Yes”
restores the delivery state. 6.1.1 BIOS Default Settings
The BIOS is password protected. Please note that the keyboard layout for
entering the BIOS password is English. The BIOS password is case sensitive and
must be entered in the same way.
The following default settings are already made in the BIOS.
LVDS Configuration Setting Attempt Secure Boot
Secure Boot is activated in this BIOS. This means that only signed images can
be started. Installed Keys for the Secure Boot Settings in the Boot tab
6.1.2 Set Boot Priority
If you want to boot from a USB device, the following settings must be made in
the BIOS:
- Select “Boot” tab
- Select “Boot mode select” “UEFI”
- Open the “Boot Option #1” by pressing the “Enter” key
- Select USB device with “Enter”
- Save with keystroke “F4” (confirmation with “Yes”)
6.2 BIOS Update
6.2.1 Preparation
Copy the AMI BIOS update files to a USB stick
You can obtain the required files from Christ Electronic Systems. These are
the same for Argon and Titanium.
- efi
- flash.nsh
- fparts.txt
- Fpt.efi
- Titanium-200826a-S1M.bin (This .bin is only an example, the file can also be named dif- ferently)
6.2.2 Perform Update
Note: Attempt Secure Boot is [Enabled]. This must be set to [Disabled]
before the BIOS update can be performed.
Insert the bootable USB stick with the required files into the unit.
Set the USB stick to Hard Disk Boot Priority in the BIOS. You can read about
the procedure un- der Boot Priority.
The EFI Update Script is automatically detected on the USB stick and starts
the update process.
Further procedure
- Confirm the question: “Enter ‘q’ to quit, any other key to continue:” with Enter
- The update is executed
- The message “FPT Operation Successful” indicates successful completion
- Disconnect the power supply
- Restore the power supply and enter the BIOS again (do not reboot)
- Press the F3 key to confirm the question “Load Optimized Defaults” with “Yes”
- Press the F4 key to save and exit
