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:

  1. Select “Boot” tab
  2. Select “Boot mode select” “UEFI”
  3. Open the “Boot Option #1” by pressing the “Enter” key
  4. Select USB device with “Enter”
  5. 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
