3.1 Mounting
Depending upon the configuration ordered, there are several ways to mount the BL2
PPC…AIO65…. Use the appropriate section below to mount the BL2 PPC…AIO65….
3.1.1 VESA
The BL2 PPC AIO65... conforms to the VESA, MIS-D, 100, C hole pattern. Note that this
standard is for devices up to 14 kg (30 lb.).
Port connections pass through rubber grommets that, when installed properly, maintain the
IP65 rating of the device. Failure to properly install the cables through these grommets will
result in a lesser IP rating.
The grommets accept typical cable diameters. The cables must be installed through an
appropriate grommet that aligns with the connector to maintain the IP65 degree of
protection. Grommets are labeled per type of signal.
NOTE:
Install the BL2 PPC…AIO65… with adequate clearance around the heat sink to provide
sufficient air flow such that ambient temperatures do not exceed the operating limits.
Install cooling fan(s) in the enclosure, if necessary.
Exceeding the system temperature limits can result in performance degradation of any or
all components. It is therefore important that the ambient temperature of the installation
environment is kept within the system temperature limits of your BL2 PPC…AIO65….
Because the housing must be opened to route the cables through grommets and attach
them to the ports, cables should be installed and attached to the PC before attaching the
PC to the VESA mount.

To install a cable:
1. Loosen the captive screws (1) securing the rear cover (2) to the IPC and panel
assembly (3) and carefully raise the cover. Note that ground (4) and USB (5) cables are
connected internally and must be disconnected to fully separate the components.
Figure 3-1 Accessing ports in a VESA-mount configuration
2. Remove the desired grommet (6) from the rear cover by pushing it out from the inside.
3. Bend or flex the grommet to see the split. Remove the installed plug(s) from the
grommet.
4. Insert the desired cable(s) into the grommet. Route the cable(s) through the appropriate
opening in the rear cover.
5. Press the grommet into the opening in the door, making sure it is fully seated.
6. Repeat the process for all desired grommets and cables. If a cable is not inserted into
the grommet, the plug must remain installed.
7. With the cover held in close proximity to the IPC and panel assembly, plug all cables
into the appropriate ports (see Figure 3-3).
8. Coil and secure any cables inside the rear cover and put it in place. Secure cover with
the previously removed hardware.

3.1.2 CS3000 mount
The BL2 PPC…AIO65… may be configured for attachment to a Bernstein CS3000 adapter,
either top or bottom mount. A push-button housing may be incorporated into the unit when
the adapter is attached to the bottom.
Figure 3-2 CS3000-mount configuration
1. Loosen the captive screws (1) securing the rear cover (2) to the IPC and panel
assembly (3) and carefully raise the cover. Note that ground (4) and USB (5) cables are
connected internally and must be disconnected to fully separate the components.
2. Assemble the push-button housing (6), adapter box (7), and adapter (8) as applicable.
3. Attach the assembly to the rear cover. It may be located at the bottom or top, depending
upon the mounting structure.

3.2.2 Serial communication
One D-SUB 9 connector (see Figure 3-3) can be configured to communicate on the
RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 physical layer. The physical layer is set using the UEFI (see
“UEFI” on page 22). The remaining connectors are limited to RS-232 only.
The BL2 PPC…AIO65… is capable of the following communication parameters:
The function of the pins in the D-SUB 9 connector varies with the different configuration
settings.

5.1 Opening the housing
The BL2 PPC…AIO65… is a PC inside a IP65-rated housing. To access the ports and
internal PC components, the housing must be opened.
5.1.1 VESA mount housing
1. Remove power to the device.
2. Loosen the captive screws (1) securing the rear cover (2) to the IPC and panel
assembly (3) and carefully raise the cover. Note that ground (4) and USB (5) cables are
connected internally and must be disconnected to fully separate the components.
Figure 5-1 Accessing ports in a VESA-mount configuration
3. Disconnect any cables installed in the ports.
4. Remove the power connector (6) from the IPC.
5. Remove the screws (7) securing the sheet metal (8) over the PC board.
6. Perform the desired maintenance.
To reassemble the unit:
1. With the cover held in close proximity to the IPC and panel assembly, plug all cables
into the appropriate ports (see Figure 5-1).
2. Coil and secure any cables inside the rear cover and put it in place. Secure cover with
the previously removed hardware.
3. Reapply power at the external switch.

4. Remove the screws (7) securing the sheet metal (8) over the PC board.
5. Perform the desired maintenance.
To reassemble the unit:
1. With the cover held in close proximity to the IPC and panel assembly, plug all cables

2. Coil and secure any cables inside the rear cover and put it in place. Secure cover with
the previously removed hardware.
3. Reapply power at the external switch.
5.2 Real-time clock battery
The battery supplies power to the real-time clock (RTC) and maintains the UEFI settings in
the BL2 PPC…AIO65… when the system is not connected to a 24 V DC power source. If
power is removed while the battery is discharged or removed, any user-defined UEFI
settings will be lost, and a “CMOS checksum error” message appears once power is
restored.
To account for user-defined UEFI settings, it is recommended that they be recorded through
photos or a separate document before the battery is depleted or removed. Store the photos
or documents on a different device so they are accessible in the event of a boot failure.

5.3 UEFI reset
The UEFI settings, date and time, and other items are powered by the real-time clock
battery and, if the battery is removed, will likely lose its settings. It can be reset to the factory
defaults using a reset button.
Figure 5-4 UEFI jumpers
To reset the UEFI:
1. Remove the service panel.
2. Remove the jumper JPA (1) from pins 1 and 2.
3. Place jumper between pins 2 and 3 for 3 seconds (reset position).
4. Remove jumper from pins 2 and 3, and reinstall on pins 1 and 2 (the run position).
5. Reinstall the service panel or reattach the case to the display panel.
6. Reconnect the power connector and apply power. During the boot process, a message
will appear notifying the user that the CMOS and UEFI settings have been reset to the
factory defaults.
7. During the boot process, press the <F2> key to access the UEFI settings (see “UEFI”
on page 19).
8. Update the UEFI configuration with any appropriate user-defined requirements.
NOTE:
The UEFI reset buttons are intended to be used only by advanced users or if directed to
do so by Phoenix Contact technical service. After the reset, the UEFI will need to be
reconfigured to account for any user-defined settings.
