United States FCC Part 15, Subpart B, Class A EMI Compliance Statement:
NOTE: 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 against harmful interference
when the equipment is 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 user will be required to correct the interference at his or her own expense.
For European Users - WARNING:
This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case the
user may be required to take adequate measures.
INSTALLATION: Electromagnetic Compatibility WARNING:
The connection of non-shielded equipment interface cables to this equipment will invalidate FCC EMI and European
Union EMC compliance and may result in electromagnetic interference and/or susceptibility levels which are in
violation of regulations applying to the legal operation of this device. It is the responsibility of the system integrator
and/or user to apply the following directions relating to installation and configuration:
All interface cables must include shielded cables. Braid/foil type shields are recommended. Communication cable
connectors must be metal, ideally zinc die-cast backshell types, and provide 360-degree protection about the
interface wires. The cable shield braid must be terminated directly to the metal connector shell, ground drain wires
alone are not adequate.
Protective measures for power and interface cables as described within this manual must be applied. Do not leave
cables connected to unused interfaces or disconnected at one end. Changes or modifications to this device not
expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
EMC compliance is, in part, a function of PCB design. Third party add-on AT/XT peripheral PCB assemblies installed
within this apparatus may void EMC compliance. FCC/CE compliant PCB assemblies should always be used where
possible. XYCOM AUTOMATION can accept no responsibility for the EMC performance of this apparatus after
system integrator/user installation of PCB assemblies not manufactured and/or expressly tested and approved for
compliance by XYCOM AUTOMATION. It is the responsibility of the system integrator/user to ensure that installation
and operation of such devices does not void EMC compliance.

Chapter 2 — Installation
Installation Overview
The rugged design of the 4115T unit allows it to be installed in most industrial
environments. The system is generally placed in a NEMA 4/4X/12 enclosure to
protect against contaminants such as dust, and moisture. Metal enclosures also help
minimize the effects of electromagnetic radiation that nearby equipment can generate.
Read the following sections carefully to be sure that you are complying with all the
safety requirements.
1. Select a NEMA rated enclosure and place the unit to allow easy access to the
system ports (see other sections in this chapter and Appendix A).
To assure a NEMA 4 seal choose an approved enclosure that has a 14-
gauge (0.075 in/1.9 mm thick steel or 0.125 in/3.2 mm thick aluminum)
front face.
Be sure to account for the unit’s depth when choosing the depth of the
enclosure.
2. Create a cutout in the enclosure (see Figure 2-2).
Be sure to place the unit at a comfortable working level
Make sure the area around the cutout is clean and free from metal burrs
3. Mount the unit in an upright position and properly secure the unit into the panel.
Tighten the ten #10 nuts to 25 inch-pounds (2.8 Newton-meters / 28Kgf
cm).
4. Attach one end of the power cord to the power receptacle on the unit and the
other end to a properly grounded 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz outlet.
5. Turn on power to the system. The system will boot up the installed operating
system.
6. Install the application software via a floppy drive, CD-ROM, or the network.
Additional aspects to take into account when mounting your 4115T unit:
•Consider locations of accessories such as AC power outlets and lighting (interior
lighting and windows) for installation and maintenance convenience
•Prevent condensation by installing a thermostat-controlled heater or air
conditioner
•To allow for maximum cooling, avoid obstructing the airflow

4115T Light Duty Industrial PC Chapter 2 – Installation
7 143926(A)
•Place any fans or blowers close to the heat generating devices. If using a fan,
make sure that outside air is not brought into the enclosure unless a fabric or
other reliable filter is used. This filtration prevents conductive particles and other
harmful contaminants from entering the enclosure.
•Do not select a location near equipment that generates excessive electromagnetic
interference (EMI) or radio frequency interface (RFI). Examples of these types of
equipment are: high power welding machines; induction heating equipment; and
large motor starters.
•Place incoming power line devices (such as isolation or constant voltage
transformers, local power disconnects, and surge suppressers) away from the
system. The proper location of incoming line devices keeps power wire runs as
short as possible and minimizes electrical noise transmitted to the unit.
•Make sure the location does not exceed the unit’s shock, vibration, and
temperature specifications
•Install the unit in the rack or panel in such a way as to ensure that it does not
cause a hazard from uneven mechanical loading
•Incorporate a readily-accessible disconnect device in the fixed wiring on
permanently connected equipment
•Avoid circuit overloading of the supply circuit

Mounting Options
The 4115T can be mounted to a panel, to the wall, or to an arm. The following
sections describe each mounting option for the 4115T.
Panel Mounting
The 4115T is designed for panel mounting. Before mounting the 4115T to the panel,
check the cut out dimensions as shown in Figure 2-2. Then, mount it to the panel
using ten supporters, as shown in the Figure 2-3 (see next page).

Caution
Some components on POS-478E are very sensitive to static discharges. To protect
it from unintended damage, be sure to follow these precautions:
1. Ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching your POS-478E.
You can do it by using a grounded wrist strap at all times or by frequently touching
any conducting materials that is connected to the ground.
2. Handle your POS-478E by its edges. Don’t touch IC chips, leads or circuitry if not
necessary.
3. Do not plug any connector or jumper while the power is on.
4. Do not put your POS-478E unprotected on a flat surface, as the board has
components on both sides.
