may cause undesired operation.
16. CAUTION: Always completely disconnect the power cord from your chassis
whenever you work with the hardware. Do not make connections while the
power is on. Sensitive electronic components can be damaged by sudden
power surges.
17. CAUTION: Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching
the motherboard, backplane, or add-on cards. Modern electronic devices are
very sensitive to static electric charges. As a safety precaution, use a grounding
wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic components on a static-dissipating
surface or in a static-shielded bag when they are not in the chassis.
18. CAUTION: Any unverified component could cause unexpected damage. To
ensure the correct installation, please always use the components (ex. screws)
provided with the accessory box.
Safety Precaution - Static Electricity
Follow these simple precautions to protect yourself from harm and the products from
damage.
To avoid electrical shock, always disconnect the power from your system chas-
sis before you work on it. Don't touch any components on the main board or
other cards while the system is on.
Disconnect power before making any configuration changes. A sudden power
surge as you connect a jumper or install a card may damage sensitive electronic
components.
Warning! 1. Input voltage rated: 6 ~36 Vdc (12/24V power) or 18 ~ 58 Vdc
(48V power, option).
2. Transport: carry the unit with both hands and handle with care.
3. Maintenance: to properly maintain and clean the surfaces, use only
approved products or clean with a dry applicator.
4. CF/SD/SIM card: Turn off the power before inserting or removing
CompactFlash storage cards.

TREK-753 User Manual 2
1.1 Introduction
Advantech-DLoG’s TREK-753 is a new generation, all-in-one 7” mobile data terminal
with touchscreen. Its compact and rugged industrial design is perfect for different
uses where space, vibration, transient power, and temperature fluctuations will dam-
age most computer equipment. TREK-753 is the higher performing cousin of the
award-winning TREK-743 with its Intel® Atom™ Z510PT/US15 processor, increased
memory, the addition of an analog video input port, GbE LAN, and a rich complement
of I/O ports (additional COM ports, audio, CAN bus, and J1708). TREK-753 has also
been re-engineered to optimize internal space, gained by its full-flat panel touch-
screen; and it has moved the CF/SD/SIM card slot to make it externally accessible,
allowing easy access without having to open the unit.
TREK-753 is built tough. It has an EN 60721-3-5 certification, and meets military
standards for vibration and shock. This ruggedness allows TREK to boldly go where
others dare not, opening a wide range of vertical market applications. TREK-753 is
suitable for taxi and bus transport, in vehicle fleets of all types, in long-haul trucking,
and as an affordable solution to heavy duty applications. TREK-753 is designed to
operate flawlessly in transient power conditions. It supports 12/24 V options, operat-
ing from 6 ~ 36 volts, and it is ISO7637-2 and SAEJ1113 compliant. With power-on/
power-off delay features which are software configurable, TREK holds its own in
unstable power conditions. And TREK can operate in the temperature extremes
found in harsh environments.

Terminal
Before starting to set up the Mobile Data Terminal, take a moment to become familiar
with the locations and functions of the controls, drives, connectors and ports, which
are illustrated in the figures below. When the Mobile Data Terminal is placed inside
truck glove cabinet or under the passenger’s seat next to the driver, its front appears
as shown in Figure 2.1.

2.2 Installation Procedures
When you install TREK-753, the first step is to connect the power and ignition cor-
rectly. TREK-753’s power cable is designed to connect to the battery directly. TREK-
753 can be switched ON/OFF both by the ignition signal or its power button.
2.2.1 Connecting the Power Cord
Connect the three pin waterproof power cord to the DC inlet of TREK-753. On the
open-wire end, one pin is reserved for positive voltage and is marked "+" which
needs to be connected to the power "+" side; one pin is reserved for ground and is
marked "-"; which needs to be connected to the power "-" side. And, one pin is
reserved for the ignition signal with an “ignition” mark. There's an independent
"Shield" pin in the power cable; please fix it to the O-ring which is beside the TREK-
753 power connector.
Connector : DECA Switchlab ME050-50803
Mating connector: MC101-50803-3Y
Figure 2.5 Power Connector Photo
Note! TREK-753 power input supports 12V/24V & 48V DC input. The default
setting is for 12V or 48V (option board) only. If customer needs 24V DC
input, please contact regional sales or distributors to customize in
advance.
Note! The fuse in the power cable for a 12V/24V (10A) and a 48V (5A) system
is different. Please check the fuse in your power cable before the sys-
tem is powered on.
Note! Ignition on/off setting: The TREK-753 supports an ignition on/off function
so that you can power on/off the TREK-753 via the ignition signal/volt-
age.

2.2.2 Power Connector
TREK-753 can be powered on/off from the power button or directly from the vehicle
ignition. There is a 5 second delay when using ignition on/off. This avoids impact
from fluctuating power supply which might impact or damage system operation. For
more power management details, please see Power management in Chapter 5.

2.3 Running the BIOS Setup Program
In most cases, the computer will have been properly set up and configured by the
dealer or system integrator prior to delivery. However, it may still be necessary to
adjust some of the computer's BIOS (Basic Input-Output System) setup programs to
change the system configuration data, like the current date and time, or the specific
type of hard drive currently installed.
The setup program is stored in read-only memory (ROM). It can be accessed either
when turning on or resetting the computer, by pressing the “Del” key on the keyboard
immediately after powering up the computer.
The settings that are specified with the setup program are recorded in a special area
of the memory called CMOS RAM. This memory is backed up by a battery so that it
will not be erased when turning off or resetting the system. Whenever the power is
turned on, the system reads the settings stored in CMOS RAM and compares them
to the equipment check conducted during the power on self-test (POST). If an error
occurs, an error message is displayed on screen, and the user is prompted to run the
setup program.
2.4 Installing the Drivers for Win XP
After installing system software, the computer is ready to have the Intel® chipset,
VGA, audio, LAN, and touch screen functions set up. All the pre-requisite drivers are
stored on a CD-ROM disc entitled “Drivers and Utilities” (Check the correct wording
on the CD, which can be found in the accessories box.)
The utility directory includes multimedia programs. Some drivers and utilities in the
CD-ROM disc have their own text files which help users install the drivers and under-
stand their functions.
These files are a very useful supplement to the information in this manual. For more
updated driver please refer to the Advantech website, www.advantech.com/support
