1.5 System Front View
TFT-LCD Display with Projective Capacitive Touch Screen:
The Panel PC is built in a TFT-LCD display and designed with a projective capacitive
touch screen. The surface of the display is also mechanically protected through the
touch screen. The touch screen of LEAD-PND-2150/LEAD-PND-2360 can support up
to 10 touch points.
Plastic Front Bezel:
Plastic front bezel with PC material meets IP65 protection.
True Flat Projective Capacitive Touch Screen:
The projective capacitive touch screen (USB interface) registers contacts of a
conductive object such as fingers and allows moving the mouse pointer. Users don’t
need to install touch screen driver for projected capacitive multi-touch because driver
is included in operating system.
Do not use a hard or a pointed object (like screw drivers or pliers) to operate
the touch screen, because such an action will damage the surface of touch
screen. Also do not put heavy objects on the screen to prevent damage.
Front Panel Care and Clean
Avoid used and storage the product near or exposed to organic solvents, acid
gases. Please use dry or soft clothes with neutral detergent or ethanol to clean
the product.

1.7 Safety Instruction
Caution:
This section should be carefully read and please abide by the instructions for
your own safety and correct use of the unit.
The chapter also includes information on approval and interference inhibition of your
unit. Please abide by the warnings and instructions on the unit and in the manual.
The LEAD-PND-2150/LEAD-PND-2360 HMI is built and tested by Portwell, Inc. in
accordance with and kept the company within under perfectly safe condition. In
order to retain this condition and ensure safe operation, the users must abide by the
instructions and warnings
The unit must be used in accordance with the instructions of usage.
The electrical installations in the room must not violate the requirements of the
local (country-specific) regulations.
Pay careful attention that there are no cables, especially power cables, in areas that
people can go over them.
Only use the power cord supplied as specification. Don’t use damaged power
cords.
Keep away from radio. This may affect the operation of the unit.
Hints for AC power connection via external AC/DC adapter: The main power cable
of the optional external AC/DC adapter serves as disconnecting device. For this
reason, the outlet of the AC power source must be located near to the device and easy
to reach.
Never place the unit under direct sunlight, near heat sources or in a humid place.
Make sure the unit has proper ventilation.
All plugs on the connection cables must be screwed or locked to the housing.
LEAD-PND-2150/LEAD-PND-2360 HMI is designed to be used on the desk or
upright with the I/O interfaces downwards.
The unit generates heat under operation condition. Make sure it is properly
ventilated. Never cover up the air intake and exhaust openings of the unit. Do not
impede the fins of the heat sink.
Be aware of the warm surface of heat sink at back side. Users should not remove
the protective wear.
Repairs may only be operated by specialists or technicians qualified and
authorized by Portwell, Inc.
Maintenance or repair on the open unit may only be operated by specialists or
technicians qualified and authorized by Portwell, Inc. and familiar with the
related hazards.
When accessing internal components (which is not suggested), users must switch
off the unit and disconnect it from the power source.
Only original accessories (or suggested optional parts) approved and supplied by
Portwell, Inc. may be used.

13
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the
protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Assumption of safe operation no longer possible must be taken,
- if the unit has obvious damage or
- if the unit no longer functions.
Under such cases, the unit must be shut down and secured against any
unintended operation.
1.7.1 Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
A sudden discharge of electrostatic electricity can damage electrostatic-sensitive
devices or circuits. Adequate packaging and grounding techniques are essential to
avoid damage. Following precautions should be taken:
1. Deliver printed circuit boards in electrostatic-safe containers such as cartons,
boxes or anti-static bags.
2. Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they reach an
electrostatic-free station.
3. Follow adequate grounding when a sensitive PCB, components, or assemblies are
touched.
4. Store electrostatic-sensitive PCB’s in a protective packaging or on conductive
foam.
1.7.2 Grounding Method
Protect against electrostatic damage of the unit by taking the following preventative
measures:
1. Cover workstations with approved anti-electrostatic material. Provide a wrist
strap connected to a working bench and properly grounded tools and equipment.
2. For extra protection use anti-electrostatic mats, heel straps, or air ionizers.
3. Handle electrostatic-sensitive components, PCBs, and assemblies with care
nearby the case or the edge of the board.
4. Prevent contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.
5. Switch off power and input signals before plugging and removing connectors or
test equipment.
6. Keep the work area free from non-conductive materials such as ordinary plastic
assembly aids and Styrofoam.
7. Use field service tools with conductivity, such as screwdrivers, pliers, and
vacuum cleaners.
8. Always put drives and PCBs with the component-side down on the working
bench.
1.7.3 FCC Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection from harmful interference when the equipment is

14
operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the users will be required to correct the interference at
his/her own expense.
1.7.4 Electromagnetic Compatibility
The system has been designed for industrial use. The most recent version of the EMC
guidelines (EMC Directive 2014/30/EU) is applied following standards, CE/FCC
Part 15 class A. If users modify and/or add device to the equipment (e.g. installation
of add-on cards), the prerequisite for the CE conformity declaration (safety
requirement) may not be applicable anymore.
