1. Introduction
About the Product
This product is a fanless computer for embedded applications. It features an Atom processor Z510P
(BX-200, BX-200D), Z530P (BX-210, BX-210D), US15WP (GMA500) chipset. It combines sufficient
performance and low power consumption in a space-saving design that can be installed in spaces only
50-mm thick with roughly the same area as a paperback book. This "resource-saving PC" helps you
design more compact, energy efficient equipment to reduce running costs and promote energy efficiency.
It has extension interfaces such as 1000BASE-T, USB 2.0, and serial. It employs a CF card for storage
and is fanless to ensure a totally spindleless design that simplifies maintenance.
It is available in ten different models with different CPU and display interface configurations so that you
can select the best product to suit your application.
Embedded-type CPU and chip set have been adopted. The use of readily available parts ensures the ease
of the use of the product. In addition, the use of Contec-customized BIOS allows support to be provided
at the BIOS level.
This product is available in the following 10 models:
- Base model with Intel Atom Processor Z510P 1.10GHz
BX-200-DC5000 (Memory 1GB, without OS, without CF, Graphic I/F: Analog RGB)

Graphic I/F: Analog RGB)
BX-210D-DC5311 (Memory 1GB, Windows Embedded Standard 2009 (Japanese version), CF2GB,
Graphic I/F: DVI-D)
Features
- Contributing to reduction of running cost and promotion of energy efficiency
It adopts the low-power platform with Intel (R) Atom(TM) Processor Z510P (BX-200) or Z530P
(BX-210), US15WP chipset that realizes lower power consumption while ensuring sufficient
performance.
- Contributing to compact device design. Ultra-small PC is roughly the same area as a paperback book
It is the smallest [178 (W) x 115 (D) x 29 (H)] and lightest [800 g] PC in the series, and can be installed
almost anywhere.

1. Introduction
2BX-2x0-DCxxxx, BX-2x0D-DCxxxx User’s manual
Can be installed in spaces only 50-mm thick with roughly the same area as a paperback book. It largely
serves downsizing of your equipment, fits any area with the aestheticness kept.
- Slitless/fanless design that reduces maintenance work
This product's spindleless design eliminates the heat dissipating slit and CPU fan and adopts CF card for
the storage. There is no need to worry about the intrusion of dust or foreign objects, and the use of parts
that degrade over time is minimized to facilitate maintenance.
- Remote power management function to reduce operation tasks
Supports system startup by external device over network (Wake-on-LAN), by general purpose input
(power on by GPI), and by modem reception (power on by ring). It encourages significant labor saving in
operation.
- Major types of peripherals are supported with rich interfaces including the two CF card slots
It has a variety of extended interface such as 1000BASE-T x 2, USB2.0 x 5, serial (RS-232C) x 2.
It has two CF card slots (one built into main unit), providing the ability to separate data from the
operating system, as well as the convenience of being able to use one slot for system startup and the other
for maintenance or for taking home system logs or collected data.
- Falling-off prevention tools and fixing clamps provided to avoid trouble caused by disconnected cable
This product stays trouble-free, being equipped with USB removal prevention fitting and cable clamp for
connectors with no locking mechanism, such as USB cable, and with hardware to properly mount and
avoid falling out of CF card.
- Safety design required for embedded applications
Retention of CMOS data by EEPROM allows the system to start up even when the battery has run out.
For Windows Embedded Standard installed model, it is possible to use the EWF*1 function of OS. It is
designed for safety required for embedding purpose, for example, prohibiting unwanted writing to the CF
card with EWF function will relieve the concern about the writing limits to the CF card and prevent an
unintentional system alteration.
*1 EWF (Enhanced Write Filter) is a function specific to Windows Embedded Standard that protects the disk from being actually written
by redirecting the writing to RAM.
- A wide range of power supplies (10.8 - 31.2VDC) supported
As the product supports a wide range of power (10.8 - 31.2VDC), it can be used in a variety of power
environments. The separately available AC adapter adds support for 100VAC power.
Supported OS
- Windows Embedded Standard 2009

Power Requirements
Your system requires a clean, steady power source for reliable performance of the high frequency CPU on
the product, the quality of the power supply is even more important. For the best performance makes sure
your power supply provides a range of 10.8 V minimum to 31.2 V maximum DC power source.
Power Consumption
For typical configurations, the CPU card is designed to operate with at least a 60W power supply. The
