2.2 Front Panel I/O & Functions

In Vecow's SPC-4000 series family, most of the general connections to the

computer device, such as audio, USB, VGA, LAN Jack, Isolated COM and

HDMI, are placed on the front panel.

2.2.1 SPC-4010 Front I/O & Functions

2.2.1.1 Reset Tact Switch

It is a hardware reset switch. Use this switch to reset the system without power

o the system. Press the Reset Switch for a few seconds, and then the reset

function will be enabled.

2.2.1.2 Power Button

The Power Button is a non-latched switch. To power on the system, press the

power button and then the Green LED is lightened. To power o the system, you

can either command shutdown by OS operation or just simply press the power

button. If system error, you can just press the power button for 4 seconds to shut

down the machine directly. Please do note that a 4-second interval between

each 2 power-on/power-o operation is necessary in normal working status. (For

example, once turning o the system, you have to wait for 4 seconds to initiate

another power-on operation.)
