Unpacking and Initial Startup
This chapter contains information you need to perform a pre-installation check of your RXi Box
IPC.
Before installing and using the IPC, the following steps should be completed.
Unpacking and Inspection
Initial Startup
Configuring Ethernet Communications
Unpacking and Inspection
Upon receiving your RXi Box IPC, carefully inspect all shipping containers for damage. If any part
of the system is damaged, notify the carrier immediately. The damaged shipping container should
be saved as evidence for inspection by the carrier.
As the consignee, it is your responsibility to register a claim with the carrier for damage
incurred during shipment. However, we will fully cooperate with you, should such action be
necessary.
After unpacking the Box IPC, record all serial numbers. Serial numbers are required if you
need to contact Customer Care during the warranty period. All shipping containers and all
packing material should be saved should it be necessary to transport or ship any part of the
system.
Verify that all components of the system have been received and that they agree with your
order. If the system received does not agree with your order, contact Customer Care. If you
need technical help, contact Technical Support. For phone numbers and email addresses, see
the “Contact Information” page in the front of this manual.
Before you attempt to power up the IPC for the first time, inspect the unit for loose or damaged
components. If damage is observed (for example, in the form of bent component leads or loose
components), contact GE Intelligent Platforms for additional instructions. Depending on the
severity of the damage, it may be necessary to return the product to the factory for repair.
Do not apply power to the unit if it has visible damage. Applying power to a unit with damaged
components may cause additional damage.

Unpacking and Initial Startup
8 PACSystems* RXi Box IPC GFK-2785C
Initial Startup
You will need the following:
24VDC, 18–32V range, 48W power supply, Class 2 or LPS
The product is supplied with a Phoenix Contact part number 1827716 or 1851245 (spring
loaded/quick release) power terminal block for use with a power supply. The power
supply used must be a UL Listed (or equivalent) Limited Power Source (LPS) or Class 2
power source.
Power cord with 28 AWG –16 AWG wires
VGA-compatible video monitor
USB-compatible keyboard
USB-compatible mouse (optional)
1. Attach the power supply output to the IPC’s DC power plug
using 16 to 28 AWG (1.31 to 0.08mm2). For frame ground, use
shortest length 16 AWG (1.31mm2) wire to ground.
Recommended wire stripping length is 7mm (0.28 in.).
Tighten the screws that hold the wires to a torque of
4 in-lb (0.452 Nm).
2. Insert the plug into the IPC’s Input Power connector and securely tighten the attaching
screws.
The torque range for the attaching screws is 1.95–2.21 in-lb (0.22–0.25 Nm).
3. Connect a VGA-compatible video monitor and tighten down its attaching screws. Also attach
a USB-compatible keyboard, and if desired, a USB-compatible mouse.
4. Power up the unit and check whether any concealed damage has been caused by incorrect
transportation, operating/storage conditions or handling.
For ICRXIBN7x000A-CA or earlier units only: to power up the unit, press the Power On/Off
switch for at least ½ second. ICRXIBN7x001A will start up once power is applied, without the
need to depress the On/Off switch.
If you notice any damage, remove power from the unit immediately and secure it against
unintentional use.
During normal power up and operation, the Power On/Off status indicator display is:
Blinking blue while the IPC is starting up
Solid green when the IPC has completed startup and is running
Solid green when the IPC is restarted without a loss of power
Models that include the Windows 7 operating system (ICRXIBN7xxxxx):
5. The Windows 7 operating system starts in accordance with the BIOS settings. During power
up, you should see the normal operating system starting displays on the monitor.
6. ICRXIBN7x001x models contain Windows Embedded Standard 7and do not require license
activation.
7. For ICRXIBN7x000x, activate the Windows 7 Professional operating system license during
initial power-up by following the on-screen prompts. The Windows 7 product key is printed
on the Microsoft Certificate of Authenticity label, located on the right side of the IPC.

Unpacking and Initial Startup
GFK-2785C PACSystems* RXi Box IPC 9
8. To activate the operating system online, you will need to first configure the IPC’s Ethernet
settings for operation on your network.
Note: The ICRXIBN0E000A and ICRXIBN0M000A models come with two hard drive options: a
blank 32GB mSATA solid state drive or a blank 250GB SATA magnetic hard drive. You will
need to load the desired operating system and associated drivers to fully utilize the I/O
interfaces.
Configuring Ethernet Network Communications
Before configuring your industrial computer for operation on a network, consult your network
administrator. Duplicate TCP/IP addresses and duplicate computer names on the same network
can cause network problems.
Default Factory settings are to obtain an IP address automatically
1. For both ports, if necessary, use the operating system’s network configuration tool to change
the IP address and subnet mask from the factory settings to the correct settings for your
network. If your network's IP addresses are controlled by a DHCP server, the setting should
be “Obtain an IP address automatically”.
Port
Network Adapter Name
Ethernet 1
VIA Velocity
Ethernet 2
Intel 82574L
2. When prompted by the operating system, restart the IPC.
3. Connect the IPC to your Ethernet network.
Note: For Ethernet port and cabling information, refer to chapter 4.
Pinging TCP/IP Ethernet Interfaces on the Network
PING is the name of a program used on TCP/IP networks to test reachability of destinations by
sending them an ICMP echo request message and waiting for a reply. Most nodes on TCP/IP
networks, including the PACSystems Ethernet Interface, implement a PING command.
You should ping each installed Ethernet device. When the Ethernet device responds to the ping,it
verifies that the device is operational and configured properly.
Pinging the Ethernet Interface from a UNIX Host or Computer Running TCP/IP Software
A ping command can be executed from a UNIX host or computer running TCP/IP (most TCP/IP
communications software provides a ping command) or from another Ethernet device. When
using a computer or UNIX host, you can refer to the documentation for the ping command, but in
general all that is required is the IP address of the remote host as a parameter to the ping
command. For example, at the command prompt type:
ping 10.0.0.1
Determining if an IP Address is Already Being Used
Note: This method does not guarantee that an IP address is not duplicated. It will not detect a
device that is configured with the same IP address if it is temporarily off the network.
It is very important not to duplicate IP addresses. To determine if another node on the network is
using the same IP address:

Unpacking and Initial Startup
10 PACSystems* RXi Box IPC GFK-2785C
1. Disconnect your industrial computer from the LAN.
2. Ping the disconnected industrial computer’s IP address. If you get an answer to the ping, the
chosen IP address is already in use by another node. You must correct this situation by
assigning a unique IP address.
Shutting Down the Computer
Caution
For ICRXIBN7xxxxx Models, to avoid damaging files, always shut down
Windows software before removing power from the IPC.
Caution
For ICRXIBN7xxxxx Models, do not disconnect external devices, such as a flash
drive or external DVD drive without first using the Windows Safely Remove
Hardware feature to eject the device. Failure to observe this precaution could
result in damage to data.
1. To shut down the IPC, press the Power On/Off switch briefly (between 100ms and 4
seconds), or select Shut Down from the Windows Start menu.
This provides a controlled shutdown of the operating system before removing power
from the system. The status indicator stays solid green while the IPC is shutting down
and then turns off when the IPC has finished powering down.
2. To completely shut down the IPC, turn off or remove the power supplying the IPC.
Disabling Operating System Shutdown (ICRXIBN7xxxxx Models)
The current On/Off button operation requires only a 100ms press to begin a controlled Windows
shutdown. You can change this setting in Windows to require pressing the On/Off switch for 4
seconds to immediately perform a hard shutdown that forces the unit off without first shutting
down Windows. This provides some protection against unplanned shutdowns caused by
accidentally pressing the switch. To totally disable power off, you can use the hardware switch
setting as noted below.
If a hard shutdown is acceptable, you can change the OFF button to a 4 second press time through
Windows 7 settings as follows:
1. Start the Windows 7 Control Panel.
2. Select Hardware and Sound section (if displayed).
3. Select Power Options.
4. Select Choose what the power buttons do.
5. Change the When I press the power button selection to Do Nothing.
6. Save the changes.
Note: To totally disable power off, you can set a switch that is located on the underside of the
front panel. This disables the ability to shut down the IPC using the On/Off switch and
prevents unplanned shutdowns caused by accidentally pressing the On/Off switch. For
more information, see “Disabling the Off Switch” in chapter 3.

GFK-2785C PACSystems* RXi Box IPC 11
Hardware Installation
This chapter describes the procedures for the safe location and securing of the RXi Box IPC.
Note: The proper method for removing power from the unit is to switch off power at the circuit
breaker.
Installation Guidelines
The RXi Box IPC can be mounted on a DIN rail using the optional Backplate (ICRXIACCBPL) or
directly onto a panel. Mounting methods are described on pages 14 through 19.
■The IPC must be mounted with its cooling fins vertical to ensure adequate airflow.
■The panel should be capable of supporting the weight of the industrial computer without
distortion to the panel.
■Adequate airflow around the exterior of the unit is essential to maintain safe interior
temperature of the unit. Inlets and outlets must not be obstructed. For details, see page 13.
■You may need to allow more space for installation of cables and connectors than what is
required for heat dissipation. To avoid impacting mechanical reliability and signal quality,
cable installation must comply with the minimum bend radius specified by the cable
manufacturer.

Grounding
Note: These grounding connections serve as a path for reducing noise interference and radiated
emissions and are required for the IPC to comply with the standards identified in Appendix A.
The DIN rail or panel the IPC is mounted on must have a safety ground connection to
protective earth. This ground wire must be at least #16 AWG (1.31mm2) and should be as
short as possible.
If using the ICRXIACCBPL to mount the Box IPC, add a ground wire from the M8 threaded hole
on the metal DIN Backplate (M8 screw included) to protective earth.
The frame ground connection on the power plug must be a 16 to 28 AWG (1.31to 0.08mm2)
wire with shortest possible length. It is recommended that these ground wires terminate in a
star wiring pattern at the same grounding point.
Mounting Orientation
The cooling fins on the back of the IPC must be vertical. However the unit can be mounted with
the front panel connectors oriented either up or down.
