1. About the Product
This product is the “All-in-One” type PC, which has a10.1-inch size (WXGA 1280×800) LCD
touch screen integrated.
Since only selected interfaces such as 1000BASE-T, USB 2.0, and Audio are provided, the
product can be installed in a smaller space comparing to our earlier panel integrated com-
puters.
Embedded-type CPU has been adopted. The use of readily available parts ensures the prod-
uct to be applied easily. In addition, the use of Contec-customized BIOS allows support to
be provided at the BIOS level.

This product's case may become hot. To avoid being burned, do not touch that section
while this product is in operation or immediately after turning off the power. Avoid in-
stallation in a location where people may come into contact with that section.
Always remove the power cable from the power outlet before connecting or disconnect-
ing a connector.
Do not touch metal parts or terminals with your hands when the product is in operation.
Otherwise, the product may malfunction, or cause failure.
To prevent corruption of files, shutdown the OS and always wait for five seconds or longer,

CONTEC reserves the right to refuse to service a product modified by the user.
In the event of failure or abnormality (foul smells or excessive heat generation), unplug
the power cord immediately and contact your retailer.
Use the power cable that matches the power supply voltage and outlet plug that you are
using.
Always turn off the power before replacing storage. It is not hot-swappable. Removing
the storage during the operation may results in system damages.
CONTEC does not guarantee for a 24-hour continuous operation of the product or con-
tinuous current application to the product.
Do not use any sharp-pointed object such as a mechanical pencil to touch the touch
panel. Doing so may scratch the touch panel, resulting in malfunctions.
It is a characteristic of touch screens that their resistance may vary with changes to the
ambient environment (temperature and humidity) and with their own aging, resulting in
the deviation of the detection point.
Resistive-film touch screen --- Calibrate the touch screen again to re-set calibration data
Capacitive touch screen --- Do not calibrate the touch screen. Doing so may result in
malfunctions.
LCD may have a few bright spots that are always on or a few black spots that are always
off. Color irregularity may also occur depending on the viewing angle. This however is
due to the structural characteristics of the LCD; therefore, it is not a product fault.
Burn-in on TFT Display
"Burn-in" may occur if the same display is retained for a long time. Avoid this by period-
ically switching the display so that the same display is not maintained for a long time.
* Burn-In : Phenomenon characterized by a TFT display as a result of long-time display
of the same screen where a shadow-like trace persists because electric charge remains
in the LCD element even after the patterns are changed.
The storage within the product doesn't support hot plug. The pulling out opening of the
HDD cannot be done in the state of power supply ON. Please neither pulling out opening
of HDD in the state of power supply ON of this product nor come in contact with HDD.
This product may malfunction or cause a failure.
This product's specifications allow the device to be rebooted from the BIOS screen during
startup. This has no effect on operation after the OS boots.
Component Life
M.2 --- The assumed life is about 3,000 times. For details on the life estimation, refer to
Appendix.
Battery --- The internal calendar clock and CMOS RAM are backed by a Lithium primary
battery. The backup time at a temperature of 25°C with the power disconnected is 7 years.
* Replacement of expendables is handled as a repair (there will be a charge).
* The service life for consumable parts are reference values and are not guaranteed val-
ues.
