Warning
If the Box IPC is operating in ambient temperatures greater than 50°C (122 °F), its exterior temperatures may
be too hot to touch safely. To avoid burn hazards, the unit must be installed in a restricted access area, as
defined by:
•Access can only be gained by service persons or by users who have been instructed about the reasons for the
restrictions applied to the location and about any precautions that shall be taken; and
•Access is through the use of a tool or lock and key, or other means of security, and is controlled by the authority
responsible for the location.
Caution
EMC Requirements
When installing, operating, or maintaining the RXi Box IPC, personnel must insure any electrostatic charge is
discharged through the use of a grounded ESD strap or other means.
Quickstart
Upon receiving the 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 action be necessary.
After unpacking the RXi Display, record all serial numbers. Serial numbers are required if you need to contact Customer Care
during the warranty period. All shipping containers and packing material should be saved should it be necessary to transport or
ship any part of the system.
Note: For phone numbers and email addresses, refer to the section, Contact Information.
Verify that all components of the system have been received and they agree with your order. If not, contact Customer Care. For
technical help, contact Technical Support.
Before attempting to power up the RXi Display for the first time, inspect the unit for loose or damaged components. If damage is
observed (such as bent component leads or loose components), contact GE. Depending on the severity of the damage, it may be
necessary to return the product to the factory for repair.
Before you attempt to power up the RXi Box 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 for additional instructions.
Depending on the severity of the damage, it may be necessary to return the product to the factory for repair
Note: Do not apply power to the unit if it has visible damage. Applying power to a unit with damaged components may
cause additional damage.
Installation
The IPC can be mounted on a DIN-rail or panel-mounted using the ICRXIACCBPL Backplate (ordered separately). You can also
mount the IPC directly onto a panel (without a Backplate).
The IPC has four captive machine screws in its base for attaching the unit to the Backplate or panel.
For installation guidelines and procedures, including required clearances for heat dissipation, and connection details refer to the
PACSystems RXi Box IPC User Manual (GFK-2785).
Manuals can be downloaded from the Support website at http://support.ge-ip.com.

Initial Startup
You will need the following:
24 VDC, 48 W power supply, Class 2 or LPS VGA-compatible video monitor
Power cord with 28 – 16 AWG wires USB-compatible keyboard
USB-compatible mouse (optional)
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 Limited Power Source (LPS) or Class 2 power
source.
1. Attach the power supply output to the IPC’s power plug using 16 to 28 AWG
(1.31 – 0.08 mm2). For frame ground, use shortest length 16 AWG (1.31 mm2) wire to
ground. Recommended wire stripping length is 7 mm (0.28 in).
Tighten the screws that hold the wires to 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.
To power up the unit, press the Power On/Off switch for at least ½ second.
If you notice any damage, remove power from the unit immediately and secure it against unintentional use.
5. During power up, you should see the normal operating system starting displays on the monitor.
During normal power up and operation, the Power On/Off status indicator displays:
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):
6. The Windows 7 operating system starts in accordance with the BIOS settings. During power up, you should see the normal
operating system starting on the monitor.
7. 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.
8. To activate the operating system online, you will need to first configure the IPC’s Ethernet settings for operation on your
network.
9. ICRXIBN7x001A-AA models contain Windows Embedded Standard 7and do not require license activation.

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.
To shut down the IPC
1. Press the Power On/Off switch briefly (between 100 ms and 4 sec), 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.
Note: The power-off function of the On/Off switch can be disabled to avoid unplanned shutdown caused by accidentally
pressing the On/Off switch. For details, refer to PACSystems RXi Box IPC User's Manual (GFK-2785).
