MPL PIP20 Product manual

PACKED INDUSTRIAL PC WITH CORE (2) DUO PROCESSOR
The PIP is a low power, highly integrated rugged industrial PC with a specially designed aluminum housing.
This allows the PIP to operate in a standard or also in a harsh environment without fan or ventilation holes. The
design integrates standard connectors for easy connection. It can be used for any PC application where a
complete solution is needed. The PIP is 100% PC AT compatible, and can easily be mounted on a 35 mm DIN
rail.
The PIP housing offers space for a 2.5 inch hard disk and a CD-ROM drive. With the integrated PC 104(- PLUS)
interface and the PCI-Express Mini Card Slot there are flexible expansion possibilities available. Fully bootable
FLASH disks are supported for projects where hard disks cannot be used. Particular precautions have been
taken that the EMC for the entire system is within the CE and FCC limits.
All these features make the PIP the ideal solution for the industry wherever a flexible, rugged and durable
complete Industrial PC is needed.

1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 ABOUT THIS MANUAL
This manual and the appropriate PIP BIOS User Manual provides all the information necessary to handle and
configure the PIP.
This manual is written for advanced tec nical personnel responsible for integrating the PIP into their systems.
1.2 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND HANDLING
For personal safety and safe operation of the PIP, follow all safety procedures described here and in other
sections of the manual.
●Remove power from the system before installing (or removing) the PIP, to prevent the possibility of personal
injury (electrical shock) and or damage to the product.
●Handle the product carefully; i.e. dropping or mishandling the PIP can cause damage to assemblies and
components.
●Do not expose the equipment to moisture.
1.3 ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PROTECTION
Various electrical components within the product are sensitive to static and electrostatic discharge (ESD). Even
a small static discharge can be sufficient to destroy or degrade a component's operation!
With an open housing, do not touch any electronic components. Handle or touch only the unit chassis.
1.4 EQUIPMENT SAFETY
Great care is taken by MPL AG that all its products are thoroughly and rigorously tested before leaving the
factory to ensure that they are fully operational and conform to specification. However, no matter how reliable a
product, there is always the remote possibility that a defect may occur. The occurrence of a defect on this
device may, under certain conditions, cause a defect to occur in adjoining and or connected equipment. It is
your responsibility to protect such equipment when installing this device. MPL accepts no responsibility
whatsoever for such defects, however caused.
