1General considerations on Installation and
Operation
The PCM4-H77 is designed to work at conditions according to IEC 60945. However, keeping the
temperature and vibration level at a minimum will extend the life time of the product. ISIC
recommend operating this product at normal room temperature (20-25 °C), with the lowest level of
vibration and humidity.
Installation of the PCM4-H77
When designing the cabinet/console for the PCM4-H77, please ensure that air can flow freely
around the cabinet, in order to avoid any unnecessary rise in temperature. If it is not possible to
have an adequate natural airflow, use a fan to force the airflow to be higher.
2Getting started
Please refer to the PCM4 overview for location of connectors specified in this section.
Connect Keyboard/Mouse to the connector specified in PCM4 overview or connect to the USB
connectors.
Connect the monitor to the DVI, HDMI or DisplayPort connector.
Connect all other needed connectors ending with the Power outlet.
Press the ON/OFF button to “I” position.
To power up the PCM4, you need to press the power button (dependant on BIOS setting). Use
a pencil or similar for that purpose. If the temperature is very cold (below approx. 1.5°C) and
the PCM4 has the special ISIC HPC option (Heater Power Controller) the PCM4 will
automatically begin warming the components inside. That process can take up to 30 minutes.
During that process, the power LED will flash red to indicate the warming process. When the
PCM4 has reached the sufficient temperature, it will automatically start to boot.
Please refer to PCM4 system indicators on page 11 for an in-depth description.
The PCM4 will be in standby mode when you power down. To restart the PCM4 again, use a
pencil on the power button.
