REMOTE POWER SWITCH CONFIGURATION OPTION
By default, your OMI6900BP Series unit is configured to boot up automatically upon application of power,
with no configuration changes necessary. In the event that DC power is lost, the unit will automatically
boot up again once DC power is restored.
If you wish to control the unit’s on/off status via a Remote Power Switch, simply connect a normally open
momentary-type switch wired to the included 2-pin connector. The connector plug accepts min. 28AWG
and max. 20AWG solid or stranded wire connection, with push-type insertion.
When the unit is powered, pressing the switch will perform a proper Windows shut down. If the DC power
supply to the OMI6900BP Series is still providing power, simply press your power switch again to boot your
OMI6900BP Series unit. When the unit is properly shut down, then it is safe to remove DC power. When
DC power is provided to the OMI6900BP Series once again, the unit will automatically boot.
Warning: Maple Systems does not recommend shutting down the
OMI6900BP Series by cutting DC power to the unit.
Always perform a Windows Shut Down procedure when you wish to turn the unit off.
Cutting DC power to the OMI6900BP Series can corrupt the Windows Operating System,
or other software or hardware components of your OMI. Damage caused by improper
application or removal of power may not be covered under the OMI6900BP Series
Warranty.

Operations Manual: OMI6900BP Series 15
Operations Manual: OMI6900BP Series 15
VESA MOUNTING
The OMI6900BP Series offer VESA mounting as an option. VESA 100 x 100mm threaded inserts are
located on the rear of the unit. Use the M4 threaded mounting screws included with the VESA mounting
hardware to mount the OMI6900BP as illustrated in the figure below.
Use VESA mounting hardware suitable for your intended application; Maple Systems is not responsible
for damage to unit, mounting surface, or to other components, caused by improper mounting.
PANEL MOUNTING
In addition to VESA mounting, your OMI6900BP Series can be mounted in a panel using the mounting
holes located on the sides and top of the unit. Use the included clamps to fasten your OMI6900BP Series
unit to a panel, cut out to the proper dimensions on the datasheet corresponding to your display size.
Tighten the panel bolts with a torque force between 7 ~ 8.5 inch/lbs. to ensure an adequate seal. Torque
values outside this range may negate NEMA or IP rating, or cause damage to the unit or panel.
Maple Systems is not responsible for damage to unit, mounting surface, or to other components caused
by improper mounting.
Note: The image above is a representative image of the panel mounting process; your specific
OMI6900BP Series unit may differ in appearance, but mounting is functionally similar.
