3.1 VESA Mounng

TCK3-APL

Quickstart Guide

3 Installaon Instrucons

This secon describes the mounng procedures for TCK series device. The material in the mounng area must provide suﬃcient strength for support of this embedded

box PC.

The TCK3-BSW is compable with the VESA MIS-D Standard 100*100mm hole paern. There are 4 VESA MIS-D (M4) mounng holes on the top side of the device.

M4 screw holes are a depth of 6mm.

3.2 Surface Mounng

There are 4 mounng holes (M5) on the top side of the device required for surface mounng. Four M4 or M5 screws with at least 8mm head-to-p length are required

to secure this device to the surface.

3.3 DIN Mounng

The device can be mounted on a DIN rail by using a DIN-rail bracket. There are two mounng holes (M3) on the rear side of the device required for DIN bracket

mounng (30mm DIN rail standard). Secure the DIN bracket to the back of this device by using two M3 screws with at least 5mm head-to-p length.

1 Safety Precauons

Thank you for purchasing a TechNexion TCK series device. This installaon guide will be helpful in the installaon, wiring and inspecon of your TechNexion embedded

fanless box PC. Before using the product, please read this guide to ensure correct use. You should thoroughly understand all safety precauons before proceeding with

the installaon, wiring, and operaon. Place this instrucon sheet in a safe locaon for future reference. The following suggesons will help you.

• Keep the device dry. Precipitaon, humidity, and all types of liquids or moisture can contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits. If your device does get wet,

allow it to dry completely.

• Do not use or store the device in dusty or dirty areas. Its parts and electronic components can be damaged.

• Do not store the device in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage baeries, and warp or melt certain plascs.

• Do not store the device in cold areas. When the device returns to its normal temperature, moisture can form inside the device and damage electronic circuit boards.

• Do not aempt to open the device. This product is designed for speciﬁc applicaons and needs to be installed by qualiﬁed personnel.

• Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards and ﬁne mechanics.

• Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the parts and prevent proper operaon.

• Unauthorized modiﬁcaons or aachments could damage the device and may violate regulaons governing radio devices.

• Do not touch any internal or exposed parts of the device as electrical shock may result.

• Do not open the device while power is on. Otherwise electrical shock may result.

• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the device.

• Be sure the venlaon holes are not obstructed during operaon. Otherwise malfuncon may result due to bad venlaon or overheang.

These suggesons apply equally to your device, baery, charger, or any enhancement. If any device is not working properly, take it to the nearest authorized service

facility for service.

•Make sure that the available power source matches the required input power of the device. Failure to observe this cauon may result in electric shock or ﬁre.

•Do not power the unit by DC input when you apply power over the PoE (RJ45).
