Connecting Input Power (24V DC-in)
To connect to power, follow these steps:
1. Verify that the power cable is not energized.
2. Loosen the screw clamps on the mating power
connector.
3. Strip the insulation from the power cables.
4. Secure the power cable to the mating connector,
noting polarity, and tighten the screw clamps. Th e
torque for the attaching screws is 0.3 Nm (2.26 in-lb).
5. Apply dc power to the unit. During normal startup and operation, the LED status
indicator displays as follows:
•Solid amber while the RXi - Industrial Display unit is starting up
•Solid green during normal operation
6. Once power is applied, the unit begins initializing. The first thing to display is the
splash screen.
Be sure to connect a DC power cord to this 3-pin power connector. Using a voltage out of the range may
fail to boot the system or cause damage to the system board.

Graphics Interface
The display port consists of the following:
DP++ Port
The DP++ is a digital display interface used to connect a display device such as a
computer monitor. It is used to transmit audio and video simultaneously. The
interface, which is developed by VESA, delivers higher performance features than any
other digital interface.
BIOS Setting
Configure the display device in the Chipset menu (“DISPLAY control” submenu) of the
BIOS. Refer to chapter 3 for more information.
RJ45 LAN Ports
Features
2 Intel® I210IT PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controllers (4 on larger box module)
The LAN ports allow the system board to connect to a local area network through a
network hub or router.
BIOS Setting
Configure the onboard LAN in the Advanced menu (“Wakeup Configuration”
submenu) of the BIOS.
USB Ports
The USB ports allow for data exchange between your computer and a wide range of
simultaneously accessible external Plug and Play peripherals. The RXi –Panel PC is
equipped with 2 onboard USB 3.0 ports (USB 0-1) in the small configuration with an
additional 2 USB 2.0 ports (USB 4-5) in the large box configuration.
BIOS Setting
Configure the onboard USB in the Advanced menu (“Wakeup Configuration”
submenu) of the BIOS. Refer to chapter 3 for more information.

2.2.3 Battery
The lithium-ion battery powers the real-time clock and CMOS memory. It is an auxiliary source of power
when the main power is shut off or disconnected. It is a standard CR2032 battery and is accessible on
the bottom of the computing module when separated from the screen (as shown below)
Safety Measures
•Danger of explosion if battery incorrectly replaced.
•Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
•Dispose of used batteries according to local ordinances.

Section 3: BIOS Setup
3.1 BIOS Setup
The BIOS is a program that handles of the basic levels of communication between the CPU and
peripherals. It contains codes for various advanced features found in this system board. The BIOS allows
you to configure the system and save the configuration in a battery-backed CMOS so that the data is
retained even when the power is off. In general, the information stored in the CMOS RAM of the EEPROM
will stay unchanged unless a configuration change has been made, such as a replacement of a hard drive,
or addition of a device.
It is possible for the CMOS battery to fail over time, causing CMOS data loss. If this happens, you need to
install a new CMOS battery and reconfigure the BIOS settings.
