1.1 Safety rules
All the Panel PC PSG2 series have been designed and built taking into account all the issues associated with an
industrial environment such as that where it is necessary to ensure the operation of the system in the presence of
vibration, moisture, dust and critical heat conditions.
Only skilled staff must make any job on the device, only after having fully read and understood the safety instructions.
Before installing and using the device, note the following precautions:
-Read all instructions carefully.
-Do not place the unit on an unstable surface, cart, or stand.
-Avoid using the system near water, in direct sunlight, or near a heating device.
-To prevent electrical shock or equipment damage, unplug the power cord from the power supply prior to
installing or wiring the PC.
-Do not disassemble or modify the Panel PC. Doing so may cause a fire or an electric shock.
All tasks such as the installation, commissioning and servicing of devices are only permitted to be carried out by
qualified personnel. Qualified personnel are those familiar with the transport, mounting, installation,
commissioning and operation of devices who also have the appropriate qualifications. National accident
prevention regulations must be observed.
1.2 Product checking
Preliminary operations to be made as soon as you receive the PANEL product:
-Check if the packing hasn’t undergone any damage due to transport.
-Verify if the packing contents correspond to the delivery note.
The product model, code and serial number are shown on the identification plate which is positioned on the rear.
If serious damages or inconsistency are found between the packing contents and the delivery note, please contact the
PANEL SRL sales department immediately.
It’s advisable to keep the original packing in order to use it for possible transports back in assistance.

The panel overlay withstands 24 hours exposure to the following reagents at 50 °C without visible staining
The panel overlay is not resistant to the following chemicals:
Projected capacitive touchscreen
The touch panel is securely affixed onto the frontal glass. The glass is much more resistant to corrosion than most
materials, so much so that it is easy to think of it as corrosion-proof.

Chapter 3: Installation and wiring
3.1 Mounting distance
For easier maintenance, operation, and improved ventilation, be sure to install the PSG2 away from adjacent structures
and other equipment. See the following drawings. Be sure that the ambient operation temperature and the ambient
humidity are within their designated ranges.
All dimensions are specified in mm
3.2 Inclined mounting
When installing the PSG2 in a slanted panel, the panel face should not incline more than 30°
30°

www.panel.it 13
13
When installing the PSG2 in a slanted panel, and the panel face inclines more than 30°, the surrounding air temperature
must not exceed 40°C. You may need to use forced air cooling (fan, A/C) to ensure the surrounding air temperature is
40°C or below.
3.3 Fasten PSG2
Insert the PSG2 into the panel cut. When inserted, fix the Panel PC as shown:
(1) Insert each of the fasteners, as shown. Be sure to pull the fastener back until it is flush with the rear of the
attachment hole.
(2) Be sure to pull the fastener back until it is flush with the rear of the attachment hole.
(3) Tightening the screws with too much force can damage the PSG2 unit’s case
The torque required to tighten these screws is 0.5 Nm.

www.panel.it 14

3.4 Connecting DC power
Warning!
All supplied power must be disconnected before removing device covers or components or installing/removing
accessories, hardware or cables.
The power cable must be disconnected from the device and from the voltage supply.
Verify the correct rated input 24 VDC, input voltage limits 9…..36 VDC for PSG212 / PSG215
Verify the correct rated input 24 VDC, input voltage limits 18…..36 VDC for PSG216 / PSG217 / PSG218 / PSG222 /
PSG227
The DC power cable must be secured in the terminal block (power connector) as shown in the image. Wires with a
cross section of 0.75 mm2to 2.5 mm2.
3.5 Connecting AC power
Warning!
All supplied power must be disconnected before removing device covers or components or installing/removing
accessories, hardware or cables.
The power cable must be disconnected from the device and from the voltage supply.
Verify the correct rated input 110 - 230 VAC, input voltage limits 90…..264 VAC.

3.6 Functional ground
Grounding concept Functional ground is a current path of low impedance between electrical circuits and ground. It is
used, for example, to improve immunity to disturbances and not necessarily as a protective measure. It therefore
serves only to deflect disturbances, not to provide any kind of protection against electric shock.
This device comes equipped with two functional ground connections:
-Power supply
-Ground connection
To guarantee safe conductance of electric disturbances, the following points must be observed:
The device must be connected to the central grounding point in the control cabinet using the shortest route possible.
A cable with a minimum cross section of 2.5 mm² per connection should be used.
All data cables connected to the device must be shielded.
For between the line and ground, select a power supply that is low in noise. If there is an excess amount of noise,
connect an insulating transformer.
To increase the noise resistance quality of the power cord, simply twist each power wire before attaching the ring
terminal. To avoid excess noise, make the power cord as short as possible.
This section describes the precautions for grounding the PSG2 unit:
1) Exclusive grounding (BEST)
2) Exclusive grounding (OK)
3) Common grounding (NOT OK)
Important!
The motherboard ground and others devices is connected with PSG2 ground.

4.1 Removing the rear cover
Warning!
Disconnect the power supply to the Panel PC (disconnect the power cable).
Isolate the system from all potential sources of electrical power!.
Discharge any electrostatic charge on the ground connection

SO-DIMM slot supports two 260-pin DDR4 (Double Data Rate 4) SO-DIMM slots.
Step.1)
Align a SO-DIMM on the slot such that the notch on the SO-DIMM matches the break on the slot.
The SO-DIMM only fits in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent damage to the motherboard and the SO-
DIMM if you force the SO-DIMM into the slot at incorrect orientation.
Step.2)
Firmly insert the SO-DIMM into the slot until the retaining clips at both ends fully snap back in place and the SO-DIMM is
properly seated.
4.3 HDD-SSD installation
Unplug the two SATA cables. Then,
unscrew the two screws marked above.

MINI_PCIE1 (mini-PCIe slot; half size) is used for PCI Express mini cards.
mini-SATA slot:
MINI_SATA1 (mini-SATA slot; full size) is used for mSATA cards.
Installing an expansion card
1) Before installing the expansion card, please make sure that the power supply is switched off or the power cord is
unplugged. Please read the documentation of the expansion card and make necessary hardware settings for the
card before you start the installation.
2) Remove the system unit cover (if your motherboard is already installed in a chassis).
3) Remove the bracket facing the slot that you intend to use. Keep the screws for later use.
4) Align the card connector with the slot and press firmly until the card is completely seated on the slot.
5) Fasten the card to the chassis with screws.
