3 Installaon Instrucons
This secon describes the mounng procedures for TEK series device. The material in the mounng area must provide sufficient strength for support of this embedded
box PC.
3.1 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.

1 Safety Precauons
Thank you for purchasing a TechNexion TEK 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).
